Is 2015 the year that TV critics started to take the superhero genre seriously? While we wouldn’t necessarily say that because “Arrow” started to get on the radar during an excellent second season, it certainly did become much more relevant. We had the premieres of “Daredevil” and “Jessica Jones,” “Gotham” improved dramatically, and there was […]
Today is the big conclusion for our 2015 CarterMatt Awards, and we’re closing things off with a pair of awards celebrating overall series and their specific accomplishments. For this article, we’re beginning with a discussion of Most Surprising Moment. This was a year of many shockers, character deaths, fake-deaths, weddings, breakups, cast shake-ups, and many more things […]
While we had heard from Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez multiple times over the course of the last couple of weeks since Steve Harvey made his catastrophic blunder at the Miss Universe Pageant (accidentally declaring her the winner over Pia Wurtzbach of the Philippines), we may have just had an opportunity to hear her most revealing comments […]
While Carson Daly’s show on NBC may not be the most-watched program on New Year’s Eve, the “Last Call” and “The Voice” host does have a tendency to draw some viewers year after year to his festivities in Times Square. Granted, things are going to be a little bit different for him this time around. […]
New Year’s Rockin’ Eve has become a massive tradition for ABC over the years, just as it has also become a ratings magnet. There are a variety of big-name performers who hit the stage either live in New York, or in prerecorded numbers from Los Angeles’ Billboard Hollywood Party. This is a busy show with […]
There are few things that we enjoy more on New Year’s Eve than the one-two punch of Kathy Griffin and Anderson Cooper on CNN. These two have been ringing in the new year for several years now on the network, and for our money there is not a better show out there for a few […]
Throughout the past month, we have been relishing in the fun and excitement of our annual CarterMatt Awards, which is a chance for our staff to name some of our favorites across a wide array of categories before handing the vote over to the readers for their final say. What we don’t have within those awards is a […]
Through many of our CarterMatt Awards results pieces, one of the common threads that we’ve mentioned is how there have been many blowouts across several of the categories. Often this year results are easy to project once we get a day or two before the announcement of the results. This wasn’t the case for the Breakout […]
We’ve been very lucky over the past year to get some great new shows across all of television, and we’re grateful for that. Otherwise, having this Best New Show category for the CarterMatt Awards would be rather ho-hum, since we’d be jamming in a number of undeserving shows just to fill spots. We’re thrilled that […]
Clearly, losing the Miss Universe Pageant in a pretty devastating manner does still have its perks. The latest announcement proves it. Fox has confirmed that Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez, who was given the official title for a short minute or two thanks to a mistake by host Steve Harvey, will be appearing on “Pitbull’s New Year’s […]
