What I Watched - Don’t Threaten ‘30 Rock’, Alec

What’s In the Spotlight
Alec Baldwin
Alec Baldwin is having a rough week. The worst part was when he threatened to leave 30 Rock to concentrate on his parenting problems. I doubt I’d want him as a parent, and I don’t even know if I’d like to have dinner with him, but he makes me laugh, so […]

What I Watched - The Female Perspective of ‘Entourage’

What’s In the Spotlight
Entourage
I could list many reasons why Entourage appeals to men (beyond being well written, acted, and produced). It’s a “men will be men” sitcom without any females present to make them feel bad about it. Vince, E, Drama, and Turtle are crass, immature, and baffled by women. They also […]

What I Watched - The Season Is Over for ‘Friday Night Lights’

What’s In the Spotlight
Friday Night Lights
The ratings for Friday Night Lights have been consistently poor, which makes no sense, because this show has something for everyone. It has suspenseful football action scenes that rival those from Remember the Titans, Any Given Sunday, and, of course, the movie on which the series is based. It […]

What I Watched - While I Still Could

What’s In the Spotlight
MIA - Steven Caseman, Tommy Donnelly, and Marin Frist
American Idol’s ratings haven’t lived up to Fox’s expectations, so they’ve pulled the show from their line-up, refusing to elect a sixth idol. Okay, not really, but imagine if it were true.
The quality of dramatic television right now is arguably better than […]

What I Watched Special Edition - ‘The Office’ Returns

The Office is back with a new episode this Thursday night after five weeks of reruns, and it’s not a minute too soon. As the show heads into the (hopefully rerun-free) final episodes of its third season, I have a suggestion on how to send it out with a bang.
The third season has […]

What I Watched - ‘The L Word’ Goes on Leave

What’s In the Spotlight
The L Word
The conclusion of the fourth season of The L Word left us with several questions.
Will Shane and Paige last? I don’t think so. Not only did the show’s longest sex scene ever end with looks of doubt on both their faces, but Kristanna Loken, the actress who plays Paige, has […]
