Sweetheart, listen to me. Go to the northwest corridor and upload the schematic and patch me through to Chloe. I'm 10 seconds out of beginning this column. The eighth longest day of Jack Bauer's life begins Sunday at 9 p.m. on FOX. It's a four hour premiere of "24" so that means two hours Sunday...

Here are my favorite TV quotes of 2009: "If Skynet actually did exist in the Future, a perfect way to infiltrate and destroy all of mankind would be to send Terminators back posing as actors who have played Terminators in popular films and television series, lulling us into a false sense of security - i.e.:...

I decided a long time ago that being a TV critic just means that I get to share my opinion with all of you. But it certainly doesn't mean my opinion is right or wrong. As we learn every week, a show I love, you may loathe. And vice versa. Sometimes you love a show I only like...

Singing the praises of 'Glee'

Okay Amy, take a deep breath. Calm down/ Do not, I repeat, do not over hype "Glee." I'm going to try to remain calm while I tell you about "Glee," which gets a sneak preview after "American Idol" tomorrow night at 9 p.m.
