Question: I’m super excited for tonight’s return of CASTLE thanks in no small part to a guest appearance by woefully underused ‘Housewife’ Dana Delany. Have you seen the episode, and if so, how is she? — Jessica
The TV Addict: While I could tell you an awful lot about Delany’s role playing an FBI investigator who arrives on the scene hot on the trail of a serial killer in part one of tonight’s CASTLE two-parter, we have a feeling that you’d get a little more out of talking to the actress herself, who I had a chance to chat with earlier today. “My character Jordan Shaw is there as the ghost of Christmas future for Beckett,” said Delaney. “She’s living proof that you can have a family, a child and be kick-ass in your job, so Beckett shouldn’t shy away from having romance in her life.”

Review: BREAKING BAD
By: Aleks Chan
BREAKING BAD is one of the most difficult shows to try to get people to watch. It sounds downright depressing: after high school chemistry teacher Walter White (two-time Emmy winner Bryan Cranston) is diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, he turns to cooking meth to leave his family (his pregnant wife and son with cerebral palsy) a nest egg after his death.
Drafting the help of former student Jesse (Aaron Paul), his desperate attempt to provide for his family puts him in the company of competing gangs, murderous druglords and just under the radar of his DEA agent brother-in-law (Dean Norris).

Review: HIGH SOCIETY
By: Aleks Chan
HIGH SOCIETY is very much a reality show of the post-Lauren Conrad HILLS era: starring the exotically boring socialite Tinsley Mortimer and some of her associates in the New York social scene, it does not try to hide the fact that its cast is frequent tabloid fodder (one cast member even flaunts his own infamy in tonight’s premiere). But there seems to be little consensus on how to handle the cross-section of reality with “reality”: parents were none too pleased over the behavior exhibited in NYC PREP and the cast of JERSEY SHORE have fielded their fair share of controversy, from punches in the face to the determining whether the glorification of a racial epithet is in fact more derogatory than the show itself.
The CW has been caught goosing the production to make up for Ms. Mortimer’s lack of real life drama – it seems that they didn’t learn from MTV, who after previously shooting a series with Mortimer and having difficulty using the footage, scrapped the production altogether. But even if we abandon the pre-tense of accuracy when it involves reality television and just consider it a form of fiction, a style chosen for effect and for its extra cheap price tag, HIGH SOCIETY is made so scattershot and disorienting by the producers’ thirst for drama that it’s difficult to engage with even at a purely cheesy-fluff level. The show feels pieced together by an unhappy girl on the town: she flocks to party after party, looking for anything worth looking for.
