Latest episode clacks for this show:
(1/19 – 1/26) The subject of the Friday night death slot comes up fairly regularly around here. Moreso recently, what with the Terminator/Dollhouse debut right around the corner. I’m not one to argue in the face of so much damning evidence, but I do think there is a plucky young upstart with eyes on the […]
No, I haven’t run out of original title ideas. As some of you may have seen, I recently wrote a similar post about the plight of the highly rated but severely overlooked NCIS. The truth is that your response to my article left me pleasantly surprised, while at the same time thinking about all of […]
