the American ‘Life on Mars’ is not dead yet
My brother sent me a photo from his phone Monday night: Apparently the destined-to-be-dreadful American remake of maybe-the-best-TV-show-ever Life on Mars will be shooting in his Astoria (Queens) neighborhood this morning. Yeah, the show is now set in New York City — it had originally been set in Cincinnati, I think. Or was it Pittsburgh? … more…
oh, and ‘Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles’ returns tonight
On Fox! At 8pm Eastern! I’d have had no idea if I hadn’t seen the ad on the IMDB this morning. Thank god for advertising. (If the spirit moves me after I see tonight’s season premiere, I’ll blog about this show again, too, like I did last season. I guess check back later tonight or … more…

don’t forget! ‘Kung Fu Killer,’ tonight on Spike!
Set your TiVo! Really. (I’ve just watched it on an advanced screener, so you know I know what I’m talking about.) And then, the next time you can’t sleep, you can put this on, and you’ll be out like a light in two minutes. *snore* Remember how we talked about trailer, and how terrible it … more…
“Blink” wins Hugo
Just want to point out that, as I unequivocally predicted almost a year ago, the Doctor Who episode “Blink” just won this year’s Dramatic Presentation, Short Form Hugo. I watched the episode again last night, which was probably my tenth viewing (or more), and it just never gets old. I’ll make an unequivocal prediction for … more…
