You Be the Critic: RINGER

You Be the Critic: GLEE’s Never Been Kissed

“We did not see that coming,” is how we would sum up last night’s episode of GLEE. And by that, we’re not talking about Kurt’s tormentor smooching him (which incidentally, we also didn’t see coming), or the equally shocking kiss between Coach Bieste (“It’s French!”) and Mr. Shue, but rather the fact that we find [...]

You be the Critic: GLEE, THE GOOD WIFE, PARENTHOOD, NO ORDINARY FAMILY, RAISING HOPE, RUNNING WILDE & LIFE UNEXPECTED

You Be The Critic: Thursday Night Premieres

1) Did you wake up this morning wishing U.S. Customs and Immigration would outsource the job of whichever NBC network executive greenlit OUTSOURCED? 2) Was $#*!

You Be the Critic: Monday Night Premieres

1) Did THE EVENT deliver the necessary amount of mythology and mystery to pique your interest and more importantly entice you to tune in next week? 2) Have you already gone ahead and downloaded “Awake My Soul” from LONE STAR’s fantastic final minutes? 2) Was the eye-candy offered on HAWAII FIVE-0 — be it of [...]

You Be the Critic: SCOUNDRELS and THE GATES

Just because we spent the night blogging, tweeting and partying it up with some of music’s biggest stars last night at the phenomenally exciting MUCH MUSIC VIDEO AWARDS doesn’t mean we’ve forgot what’s really important: TV! Which is why we thought we’d take this opportunity to ask you — our far smarter and better looking [...]

You Be the Critic: GREY’S ANATOMY, BONES, FRINGE, COMMUNITY, PARKS AND RECREATION, THE OFFICE and 30 ROCK

“Death, destruction, and jaw-dropping cliffhangers… Oh, what a night of season finales!” Or at least that’s what we would be saying had real life not gotten in the way. Which is why we’re yet again turning it over to you — our far smarter and better looking readers — to post away with your spoiler [...]

You Be the Critic: COMMUNITY, PARKS AND RECREATION, THE OFFICE, 30 ROCK, BONES, FRINGE, VAMPIRE DIARIES, SUPERNATURAL, FLASHFORWARD, GREY’S ANATOMY and PRIVATE PRACTICE

With the exception of PARKS AND RECREATION and THE OFFICE both of which put peripheral characters Ron Swanson and Kelly Kapoor front and center to great effect, this TV Addict — courtesy of an excellent dinner with fellow TV blogger @thetelevixen — is embarrassingly behind on Thursday TV. Which is why we’re once again passing [...]

You Be the Critic: AMERICAN IDOL, MARRIAGE REF, COMMUNITY, PARKS AND RECREATION, THE OFFICE, 30 ROCK, GREY’S ANATOMY & PRIVATE PRACTICE

Still reeling from last night’s AMERICAN IDOL results show? Curious as to how the MARRIAGE REF can make Larry David and Ricky Gervais — two of the funniest men on the planet — seem boring?
