I didn’t watch American Idol last night because honestly, my DVR was blowin’ up at 8 PM, and if I have to choose between Survivor, Community, and a one hour results show featuring Danny Gokey, guess which one’s getting dropped? And so it was with great shame that I sacrificed Idol for the greater good, …

‘Community’ Is Amazing
Modern Family has all the buzz, but I think after having watched last night’s episode of Community, it’s the Joel McHale-led ensemble that is the best new sitcom of the season. Honestly, this latest episode was genius; definitely the funniest thus far. This isn’t to detract from Modern Family whatsoever. Obviously that show is very …
Bethenny Frankel Nip Slip!
So here I am, dutifully checking out the preview clips for tonight’s Real Housewives of New York City, and what do I come across? A good old fashioned nip slip! That’s right: one of my favorite housewives, Bethenny Frankel, completely flashes the camera, and what’s most shocking is that Bravo doesn’t even blur it out. …
REAL HOUSEWIVES PREVIEW: These Clips Are Amazing
We’ve got a double whammy of fun tonight on Bravo. The Real Housewives of Orange County wraps up its fairly riveting season while my favorite, The Real Housewives of New York City, starts up for the third time. To say I’m excited is an understatement. I was already buzzing after a producer on the latter …

AMERICAN IDOL RECAP: The Rise of She-Lambert?
‘Twas ladies night on American Idol yesterday, and overall I’d say things were a smidgen improved. Sure there were some full-out duds, and sure I disagreed with the judges on occasion, but it looks like this season is inching ever so slowly in the right direction. I still don’t see any superstars in the group, …

'Lost' Star Goes To Jail!
I don’t know much about Lost, but I do know that one of the creepier characters is played by Michael Emerson, and years before his stint on the island, the actor clocked in a nifty performance in a prison training video, embedded above. Sort of gripping, even for an instructional video. Also, not very instructional. …
Better Than Disney's Hall Of Presidents?
Funny or Die’s Presidential Reunion from Will Ferrell What if someone gathered all the great Presidential impersonations from the last thirty-five years of Saturday Night Live and put them in a video together? Well, that’s what Ron Howard did in this Funny Or Die clip that spans from Fred Armisen to Chevy Chase and everyone …
AMERICAN IDOL RECAP: The Guys Show Signs of Life
I watched American Idol last night after midnight and thus had a very strong litmus test for who I liked, and who I didn’t: those who put me asleep were in the “not like” category. Everyone else was fine. Of course, this method tended to bias those who performed earlier in the night, but no …

ADVENTURES IN HEROISM: Saving My Dear Friend From A Feral Beast
As is often the case, I had a sudden and intense craving for frozen yogurt last night, and when I asked my dearest friend Sly if she’d like to join me, she made a proposition: she would come with me if I went up to her apartment and fulfilled her deepest needs, and in this …

I'm Adding 'Archer' To The DVR
Over the weekend, I ventured over to Hulu to sample this new animated sitcom Archer I’d been hearing about, and I’m happy to say that while a tad uneven, it’s actually pretty damn funny. Then again, it’s hard for anything featuring Jessica Walter to not be funny. Sweetening the deal is the presence of fellow …
