Dark Blue’s clicking on all cylinders

Doesn’t it feel great when a show just pulls it all together, and starts flying high? Well, six episodes in, and Dark Blue has the goods in spades. This is one hot property, and if you’re not tuning in, you’re missing out. Sure, not everything’s perfect (more on that later). But something about last night’s episode […]

Dark Blue stages a reunion of The Wire

Weird, wild stuff people. Wee-Bey (Hassan Johnson) was the fiercest of Avon supporters, right-hand man to the king.

Dean (Logan Marshall-Green), as we saw last week, treads just on that side of the line between good and evil. He’s still a damn fine cop, but he’s a little too comfortable on the dark side. […]

Ratings Clack – Talkin’ baseball… Carew and Michael Westen

Okay, I did edit the original “Talkin’ Baseball’ lyrics just a bit for the title, for context. While the All-Star game was the big deal in ratings this week, there was some great news over on cable for Michael and the gang. And really, most of the exciting stuff, where ratings are concerned anyway, was […]
