Boardwalk Empire – “All In” Review

Man, what’s become of Van Alden?  This character started the series as a real force to be reckoned with, an unstoppable prohibition agent with righteousness on his side.  Now, he’s basically a joke.  A stoolie that’s pushed around by whatever mobster he happens to be hanging around at the time.  O’Banion’s a crazy dick that…

Joel In One-The Crazy Ones

This is going to be a tough one to review in a biased fashion.  It all really depends on how much you enjoy Robin Williams.  There are two Robin Williams.  Robin Williams, the “act” and Robin Williams, the actor.  Robin Williams, the “act” is something that I detest.  As a stand up comedy nerd, I…

Survivor Season 27 Episode 2

Gahhh! This episode of the 527th (27th) season of Snorevivor was nothing spectacular. Maybe I’m being to hard on ‘ol Peachy and crew. I think I start loving Survivor after the merge when they eat each other (not for real, as this is in the 8 o’clock slot). The biggest happening of this eppy was…

The Middle

TV premieres are well under way, and this is definitely “Shit my kids watch” (but I do too). I actually like The Middle, again I don’t have to worry about buttholes and boobs or drugs in the 8 o’clock hour. I’m trying to raise nice young ladies for shits sake. In the season opener Axel…

Joel In One-Trophy Wife

Yeesh, what a mess.  This show is such a mess.  Every single cast member deserves more than this.  Malin Akerman, Bradley Whitford, Marcia Gay Harden and Michaela Watkins are all much better than this. I’ve read glowing reviews of this show and I don’t get it.  It’s been said that this is a show like…

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Ever since I saw the first trailer with what was believed to be Luke Cage or maybe Rage I was ready for Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.  Is that Gunn from Angel? Hell yeah, I want to see what the ex gang banger has been up to. ….Then I watched the pilot. It’s going to be…

Parks and Recreation, Season 6 Premiere

I’m sure there have been more criminally underrated shows than Parks & Recreation over the years, but I’m hard pressed to come up with many.  I suppose The Wire never got proper recognition when it was airing, but hyper-intelligent urban dramas on HBO can be a bit elusive, and it certainly has been lauded over…

The Blacklist ‘Pilot’ Review

This week NBC premiered the new drama The Blacklist starring James Spader (You know the weird boss guy from The Office*) as Raymond ‘Red’ Reddington, a former FBI agent who goes missing on Christmas Eve leaving his wife and daughter and sells secrets to bad guys thus becoming a bad guy himself. Super dick move…
