Mrs. Carter: Sometimes, you just have to embrace your inner weirdness. While Lady Gaga is the sort of person that turns so much of her life and her career into a grand eccentric spectacle, there has been a part of it that she has managed to keep relatively untouched over the years: Her personal life […]
Let this once again be a lesson to anyone who makes a net TV show: It’s awesome to come into it with a ton of hype and some phenomenal ratings, but if you want people to actually stay around, you have to make it good. While “Agents of SHIELD” may have Clark Gregg and Coulson and […]
