Film Review: Magic Mike

July 2, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

Be wary of what the ads tell you: Magic Mike may be “the male stripper” movie, but that’s certainly not what you’re getting when you slap down those singles in the ticket line.

The Newsroom review – 1×02: ‘News Night 2.0’

July 2, 2012 by Bitch Stole My Remote

Courtesy of HBO

You’d think with a title like “News Night 2.0” there would be some kind of forward motion happening. But instead of fixing last week’s problems, this second episode of the series only highlights them more. “News Night 0.5” would probably be a better title.

True Blood review – 5×04: ‘We’ll Meet Again’

July 2, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

True Blood’s stretch of enjoyable episodes extends as the show once again manages to admirably support one of the largest casts on television. Well…mostly…

Awkward. review – 2×01: ‘Resolutions’

June 29, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of MTV

Ah the sweetness of summer is definitely upon us. My #4 favourite show of last year (the only comedy on the list, FYI) has returned with fresh episodes. And what’s that sound, you ask? Why it’s cheerleading beyotch Sadie (Molly Tarlov) celebrating our return with a dismissively condescending “You’re welcome.”

Oh, Awkward., I’ve missed you so much.

Dallas review – 1×04: ‘The Last Hurrah’

June 28, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of TNT

It’s the calm before the storm as Dallas sets up an epic catfight as it nears the mid-season mark. But more importantly, Bobby (Patrick Duffy) saves a calf.

Alright dance fans – are you ready for what’s shaping up to be a stellar season of So You Think You Can Dance? Last night marked the landmark 200th episode as our Top 20 were announced followed by some hella good dancing. Are you as excited as I am?

Flashback review – The West Wing 2×06-2×07: ‘The Lame Duck Congress’ and ‘The Portland Trip’

June 27, 2012 by Bitch Stole My Remote

Courtesy of NBC

As I’ve been spending so much time with Sorkin’s productions these days, I’ve realized that oftentimes what’s most memorable about the episodes he writes aren’t the ideological monologues or grand gestures, but the more subtle character beats. In these two stand alone episodes, the plots may be forgettable (for the most part), but the moments with the staff stay with you.

Bunheads review – 1×03: ‘Inherit The Wind’

June 26, 2012 by yellowwait

Courtesy of ABC Family

After last week’s episode saw Michelle (Sutton Foster) inherit everything from Hubble, this week we saw the aftermath and it included a rich recluse, an arrest, more kooky town folk and a healthy amount of drinking.

We also got to see more of the girls, but they still feel like a side story on this show

Teen Wolf review – 2×04-2×05: ‘Abomination’ and ‘Venomous’

June 26, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of MTV

We’re tackling a double dose of Teen Wolf this week to make up for last week’s absent review, so dig in because two episodes of the show means double to dosage or love…and subtle mockery.

Lost Girl review – 2×10: ‘Raging Fae’

June 25, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of Syfy / Showcase

It’s a very special episode of Lost Girl in that the entire “case of the week” is completely forgettable. So put that aside and we’ll just focus on the important stuff, shall we?
