TV: I Should Probably Stop Holding My Breath for a ‘The New Normal’ Renewal

The head-splintering axe over at NBC has fallen hard this week on comedies. The network has confirmed the death of nearly all their 30-minute laughers, including WHITNEY (bleh), GO ON (I always planned to get around to it eventually), FRIENDS WITH KIDS (see, WHITNEY), and UP ALL NIGHT (I would have jumped too, I get [...]

HOW TO LIVE WITH YOUR PARENTS FOR THE [...]

Recap: ‘Psych’ Episode ‘No Country For Two Old Men’

Apparently PSYCH needed a vacation! This episode takes us right over the border (illegally of course) into Mexico. What starts with a cozy housewarming party for Shawn (James Roday) and Juliet (Maggie Lawson) ends disastrously when Shawn intervenes in their dad’s friendship and almost gets them both killed! You’re probably wondering how this all happened: [...]

Easter: Jimmy Fallon Clucks You a Happy Easter

Last night Jimmy Fallon, Blake Shelton, and Ron Swanson himself, Nick Offerman, performed an all clucking version of the Lumineer’s hit “Ho, Hey” on LATE NIGHT WITH JIMMY FALLON. It is probably one of the most absurd things I’ve seen this morning, which means stop everything you’re doing and watch.

DANCING WITH THE STARS RECAP: And Your Little Dog Too!

It’s baaaaaack! DANCING WITH THE STARS kicked off it’s 16th season with perhaps it’s most random cast to date. After the All Star season, I knew it would be difficult to muster up an appropriate amount of enthusiasm for this new group, but turns out they delivered. The return of DWTS always feels like a [...]
