"Secret Shame"
Celebrity Apprentice returns to NBC this Sunday. Among this year’s contestants is one Mr. Marvin “Meat Loaf” Aday.

So, here’s the thing. I like all kinds of pop culture. The kind that’s critically acclaimed and hip, like The Office, Mad Men, 30 Rock, etc. and the crap, like Big Brother. I can guarantee you that this does not make me unique. Oh sure, people will say they don’t know all the words [...]

Dream Crossovers – Party Down, Greendale!
26 Jan 2012
You know what I’m starting to miss? Crossovers. Sure, NBC kind of drove them into the ground back in the “Must See TV” era, using them to try to trick people into watching things like The Single Guy. (“If Ross from Friends likes him, shouldn’t you?” was the unspoken rhetorical question.) It’s been a while [...]
