Bio: An over-caffeinated Boston area freelance writer, I write about pop culture and politics for my blog, Notes from the Asylum (www.suburbanmomnotes.blogspot.com) and pen a weekly pop culture and politics column for the web site Mommy Tracked . . . that's when I'm not obsessing about Mad Men or the Boston Red Sox.

Parenthood – Does anybody really care about that stupid boat?

Crosby spent most of this episode mourning the potential sale of his houseboat, while Adam went postal in a grocery store and liked the way losing it felt.

Grey’s Anatomy – Out of Africa

It was a night of extremes. Meredith appeared to be ‘okay,’ on the outside at least, while Cristina was not. Arizona felt like she was embarking on a great adventure, Callie, not so much.

Private Practice – She’s no victim

This brutal and taut episode about the violent attack of Charlotte King contained surprises, as she refused to reveal the whole, horrific truth about her assault.

Good TV is ruining movies for me

While cable TV dramas are offering viewers fabulously complex anti-heroes whom we love, root for and cringe at, movie characters are starting to feel shallow by comparison.

Private Practice – Addison acts cold while Pete’s tale turns chilling

Why is Addison being portrayed so negatively and what are we to make of Pete’s horrific family backstory leading into a very tough episode of ‘Private Practice?’

Grey’s Anatomy – Documentary crew brings new perspective

Having a documentary team follow the Seattle Grace doctors and patients around could’ve easily made this episode overly sentimental and melodramatic. But it didn’t.

Parenthood – A tower made of Popsicle sticks

Adam had to steel himself to lay off employees while his boss hid, as Julia and Joel battled over the fact that they both want to work and not be the one who’s saddled with all the domestic duties.
