“Cristela” starts okay for ABC – It’s funny how relative ratings are. A 1.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic is considered atrocious most nights, but on Fridays, it is suddenly the new “okay.” That is what “Cristela” has going for it right now. The much-promoted new sitcom, which had a pretty heft promotional campaign behind it […]
The past few months have really been the time for reality TV to finally get its you-know-what together when it comes to editors and unions.

While we did a preview podcast for “Arrow” last week, we’re now back officially with the real deal! This is the first podcast of the fall season, and there is, suffice it to say, a ton to talk about from “The Calm.” Obviously, hosts Matt Carter and Jessa of CarterMatt try hard to not bury […]

It is typically around this time every week that we present a preview for the next new episode of “Hell on Wheels,” but there’s a problem this time around: No new episode on the weekend. This is something that we’ll probably discuss a few more times out of frustration until the show returns in November, […]
Apparently, there are “discussions” going on at The CW regarding a third superhero show, and we have to say that almost immediately, we are left feeling both excited and nervous at the same time. Let us start here by saying that we love “Arrow,” and one episode into “The Flash,” we love it to. The network, […]
To us, there is no question that Andy Cohen is responsible for any of us caring about Bravo right now. His work on “The Real Housewives” and “Top Chef” has been nothing short of exceptional, and he also has brought a different voice and perspective to late-night TV, as well. With all of this being […]
Well, there is no longer any reason at all to speculate about the Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show on NBC: Katy Perry has apparently scored the gig.
