If you’ve read any of my recent posts, you’ll know that I’m a big fan of TV comedy. So, it also won’t be a surprise that most of the shows that I watch regularly are sitcoms as well. With that in mind, I’m going to talk about the dramas first, to get it out of…

Fall TV 2016 Wave 1 – Returning Shows
In this year’s batch of returning shows, we’ve got a few long-timers, some shows with a few seasons under their belts, but very few sophomores — mostly because last year’s new shows were so weak. Surprisingly and disappointingly, rather than getting a fresh start on the new season, the pattern or theme this year so…
2015 TV Characters: Love and Hate
This season of new shows has definitely not been ground-breaking, and that is reflected in the somewhat flat landscape of new characters. Nevertheless, I have found a few characters to love on new shows like The Grinder and Scream Queens. However, I also found some new characters that I just hate as well (though not…
Fall TV 2015 – Week 2
The second week of the new tv season was full of surprises. I gave a chance to a few new shows (Code Black, Quantico, The Grinder) that I didn’t plan to watch (They were free episodes on iTunes — thank you, Marketing Department!) and I ended up liking them way more than expected. There are…

2014 TV Characters: Love and Hate
Some say that TV is going through a quality renaissance. That might be true, but unfortunately if you have enjoyed hard-edged shows like True Detective, Broadchurch, American Horror Story, or Breaking Bad for their wonderfully complex and messed-up characters, you won’t find any of those shows on my list. I tend to enjoy the lighter,…
2014 Fall TV – Returning Shows
OK, so I might not be adding too many new shows to my watchlist this season, but at least my many faves are now returning with new episodes as well. The Big Bang Theory Last season ended a bit sadly, with Sheldon unable to cope with all the change going on in his life, deciding…
2013 TV Characters: Love and Hate
Characters I Loved I guess I’ve proven again that I just don’t watch TV for the characters, because this year I found fewer standout characters that I really loved (and the ones I did find were kind of secondary, side characters who are not fully fleshed-out). On top of that, most of you have probably…
Fall TV 2013 – Comedy
For the last few years, the fall premiere season has been pretty spread out, but this year it seems like we’re back to the traditional big bang of having a lot of the shows start together. It’s October now, so the season is in full swing and we’ve had a few episodes to enjoy both…
