UGLY BETTY: Marc is Gay?

Wait a second, let me get this straight… Marc is gay? Okay, all kidding aside, last night’s episode of UGLY BETTY was one of the season’s strongest and couldn’t have come at a better time.

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS: The Best Show on TV

It occurred to me around 9PM last night, having just finished yet another brilliant episode of FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS. I’m in love with this show, and short of moving to Dillon Texas, I’m not quite sure how I’m going to cope when the first season wraps up in a mere three weeks. FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS [...]

Betty’s Back… And She’s Bringing Friends!

Oh, sure, it’s probably not a major surprise to anyone that ABC is bringing freshman hit UGLY BETTY back for a second season. But come on… did you really expect MEN IN TREES to get an EARLY pick up? We thought not. But yesterday, ABC took a lot of the suspsense out of the May [...]

10:00PM: Phew, I honestly didn’t think I’d make it home in time. Just in time… the much anticipated Locke Flashback! It better be good. 10:04PM: Hmmmm is Matthew Fox auditioning for WE ARE MARSHALLS (part deux)?
