Boardwalk Empire – First Impressions

Posted on September 21, 2010 by guiltyfeat

HBO may well be the second best TV station in the world. I haven’t watched every show that they’ve produced, but I’ve seen quite a few and I like what I’ve seen. From Sex and the City to Entourage, every … Continue reading →

Posted on September 15, 2010 by guiltyfeat

I guess it all comes down to where you stand on Jimmy Smits. Me? I’m ambivalent. Let’s review. He first showed up in L.A. Law as a Victor Sifuentes. I didn’t watch much L.A. Law. In the world of Steven … Continue reading →

I Am Not A Jobnik

Covert Affairs is my new favourite show. It’s got Piper Perabo in it. Piper. Perabo. How great is that? They should make a show called Piper Perabo, starring Piper Perabo, the human tongue twister. Just before you read any further, … Continue reading →
