TV ’10: My Year in the Boob Tube

An Open Letter to FX

Dear FX Network, First of all, what really constitutes an Open Letter? Hopefully this does because I need it to be read by many people, especially those who make decisions at FX. Last night the Terriers season finale aired during its regular 10pm slot on your network, which has become one of the strongest networks [...]

OK, No Pete this week, so bear with me. It took me a bit longer to put everything together writing solo and the pictures offered by AMC were all of Will looking paranoid, so I skipped it. Recap of “Look at the Ant” We open on a gloved hand picking a lock. It turns out [...]

A Matter of the Utmost Importance: Typecast

What I want to talk about today really came to me on the way in while listening to the /Filmcast podcast. It struck me that one of the funnier, more bankable, and likable guys in movies today is in grave danger, and perhaps is already fallen prey to typecasting. And while I’m writing this I realize [...]

“The Outsider” Recap by Seth Will traveled to Washington, D.C. with Spangler, but not before encountering a mysteriously sexy new neighbor.

The 5th Leaf: Church, Meet State. State, Church.

The 5th Leaf is going to be a weekly feature on AMC’s Rubicon. It will feature thoughts from myself and my buddy Peter Bonilla. More than likely, he will give you insightful, thoughtful prose and I will interject silly pictures and jokes. At least we know our places.

A Matter of the Utmost Importance: Retreads

Seems like it’s been awhile which is a direct result of the fact that it has been awhile. Speaking of summer, these box office offerings SUCK. Just bottom line, stink. Lots of muck, muck, and more muck.There aren’t many original properties being produced this summer as big budget films (save for Nolan’s Inception) and almost [...]
