Channel Surfing: UGLY BETTY, MODERN FAMILY & THE MIDDLE

Although we’re hesitant to speak ill of the dead, we’d be lying if we came out this morning and flat-out gushed about last night’s UGLY BETTY series finale. Sure, the episode had its highlights, with notable shout-outs going to the way in which Betty and Daniel’s future in London was left up to interpretation and [...]

Channel Surfing with CT: GLEE, LOST, GOSSIP GIRL & CELEBRITY APPRENTICE

When GLEE faded to black for its mid-season break, I admitted to being more than a little disappointed. Story-wise, the season had been a hot mess with plots randomly rushed, dropped or shuffled depending on who’d written any particular episode. But in true feel-good-TV style, the finale gave us comeuppance (Sue was suspended) and true [...]

Channel Surfing: HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, LOST, THE BIG BANG THEORY & More!

For a show that prides itself on planning ahead (See: The Wedding Bride), there was something oddly anti-climactic about the lack of clues one (okay, we) could decipher the fab five’s flash forward (pictured above) during the final scene of Monday’s HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER. Assuming of course Lily’s giant flower dress wasn’t simply [...]

Channel Surfing: HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, LIFE UNEXPECTED & CHUCK

Putting aside a slew of very valid criticism pertaining to last night’s episode that had many (including Slate’s always entertaining HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER shame index) single out the downside to J.Lo’s “return to relevance” promotional tour, the complete lack of development with regards to Robin’s new boyfriend Don, and Ted’s musical number that [...]

Channel Surfing: LIFE UNEXPECTED, LOST & THE FORGOTTEN

Currently raging within the confines of the comment section of a recent post on theTVaddict.com is a debate over LIFE UNEXPECTED’s Bug. Turns out, much to our surprise and chagrin, many of you aren’t too fond of Lux’s ex-boyfriend. Begging the question: Did you not see Monday’s episode? While Bug may have started out as [...]

Channel Surfing: LOST, CHUCK, BROTHERS & SISTERS & More!

After yet another hilarious (albeit low rated) instalment of BETTER OFF TED last night, this TV Addict thought now might be as good a time as any to offer up a tiny glimmer of hope for fans of the show. One, and let’s face it, possibly the only reason why BETTER OFF TED may live [...]

Channel Surfing: BETTER OFF TED, GREY’S ANATOMY, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES & More!

If you’re not watching BETTER OFF TED, I officially despise you. Okay, maybe not “despise”, because obviously, you can watch or not watch whatever you like. I will, however, have to admit to having very strong doubts as to whether or not you should be allowed to walk around unchaperoned or vote. Just when I [...]

Channel Surfing: NBC, FOX NEWS, OUR LITTLE GENIUS & HEROES

Apparently, the entertainment world didn’t have the good manners to put breaking news on hold while the TV Addict was ‘busy’ hangin’ with the cast of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER. NBC blinked, Fox News was accused of treason, a game show scandal was exposed and a HEROES star either let slip a major spoiler… [...]

Channel Surfing: THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, PARKS AND RECREATION, 30 ROCK, LOST

In this era of internet spoilage (Thank-you-very-much-Michael-Ausiello) it’s an increasingly rare treat when this TV Addict finds himself genuinely surprised by a character death. And while we’re the first to admit that thanks to a flurry of pre-episode interviews, this seasoned TV blogger probably should have seen last night’s killer VAMPIRE DIARIES ending coming, serious [...]

Channel Surfing: 90210, MELROSE PLACE & THE GOOD WIFE

Thank to yet another stellar outing, this TV Addict is officially ready to crown 90210 the season’s most improved player. But in lieu of a crown — which alas, this little-blog-that-could most definitely can’t afford — we hope the CW and new showrunner Rebecca Rand Kirshner Sinclair will accept something far more valuable: A mea [...]
