Easter Sunday can at times be a tough night for original programming, and yet NBC really gave it an effort last night launching their much-hyped miniseries “A.D. The Bible Continues.” Not only that, but they decided to attach to it “American Odyssey,” an interesting series with a terrible name that seemed tacked-on at the last […]
Sunday night’s “Mad Men” was an episode that gave us a tremendous amount to sit down and discuss, whether you are talking about the death of Rachel Katz, Don Draper feeling lost in his own skin yet again, or the arrival of new and surprising mustaches. This show continues to combine the serene and the […]
There are some things in which we never quite expected to see on a late-night TV show, including one that is presented with as many hard-hitting investigations as “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” is. An interview with Edward Snowden is right up there on the list. Yet, this is precisely what we had on […]
There was a lot of fun to be had with Sunday night’s “Battle Creek” episode. How could there not be when you consider a title like “Cereal Killer”? This was a chance to learn about breakfast, and to get a great guest appearance from Patton Oswalt as the mayor of Battle Creek. Next week, the […]
Tonight, NBC launched a new series in “American Odyssey” that is definitely ambitious. It is a chance to tell a story that is deep, complicated, and is an attempt by the network to get the same sort of intense-TV audience that they had with “The Blacklist.” We do still wish that they had kept the […]
“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” has spent the past two episodes existing in very different places. While the NeNe Leakes storyline has been in New York while she focuses on her play, some of the other ladies have been in the Philippines sort-of resolving many of their issues. This has been a crazy stretch, and it’s […]
Tonight marked what AMC is referring to as the beginning of the “end of an era”: The first of the final seven episodes of “Mad Men.” We are not going to refer to “Severance” as a seismic shift so much as a rumbling of things to come. Much of the big action took place offscreen, […]
“Mad Men” threw us back into the fire with its midseason premiere Sunday, and it did so with Don Draper confronting his mortality, and Peggy Olson realizing more and more that she wants to be spontaneous … even if she is not entirely sure just yet that she can be. This is a perpetual work-in-progress […]
Death is a hard thing to swallow in life, and it is often something that is trivialized on TV shows. That is not exactly the case when it comes to “Mad Men.” The AMC staple brought season 7 back on Sunday night a story that revolved around Don Draper living his life to the fullest, […]
Due to the “Big Brother Canada” live feeds being down for so much time over the course of the past several days, we are admittedly spending a great deal of time tonight firmly in the position of playing catch-up. Take, for example, finding out what happened prior to the current nominees being Graig and Bobby. […]
