What if Eric Stoltz starred in Back to the Future? What if? It's one of my favorite topics to fantasize about (yeah, I know I'm a nerd). The idea of a parallel universe where just one or two things are changed is one of the plot points to the series...

This weekend on HBO there was a mini Star Trek movie marathon. Anyone else catch that? It was fun to see William Shatner in his Starfleet uniform and I got a chuckle out of the "cutting edge" graphics going on. Watching these movies made me sad. There's nothing like this...

Bernie Maddoff. Fred Wilpon. Letting Jose Reyes sign with the Marlins without making a contract offer. Paying Bobby Bonilla until 2035. Jason Bay. These are all reasons Mets fans cite as to why they're boycotting the Mets this season. It's a fair...

After a two-week break (I was unable to write anything without cursing about Chris Brown) the Like/Dislike List is back! Let's jump right in, shall we?

I love the B.S. Report. From the Jack-O Panic Meter...

Overlooked by many tourists in favor of the two major tourist cities, Venice and Florence, it sits between, Bologna is in many ways the heart of farming Italy and should not be missed. Home to the oldest university on the boot and the capital of the Emilia-Romagna region, the city...

At first glance the New York Football Giants share very little with the fictional team in Dillon, Texas. However, after rewatching the first season this past week, it dawned on me that this year's Giants team is shockingly similar to the Dillon Panthers/Lions. Allow me to recast Friday Night Lights...

The email and tweets about last week's list were a bit overwhelming, but please keep them coming! I love hearing what's on everyone's list. Without further ado I give you this week's list:

When I was a kid I would get excited to see TV Guide waiting for me in the mailbox when I got home from school. I would examine the cover and then immediately flip to their Cheers & Jeers section. Some stories I cared about (Jeers for Knight Rider for...

In an era where commercials are fast-forwarded more often than previews before a movie boots up on a DVD, there is a time and a place where commercials are actually watched: Live sporting events. This weekend I watched every second of football in real time and thus watched every commercial...

Steven Soderbergh's new film, Haywire smashes into theaters near you in in a few weeks, and while Soderbergh is usually a can't-miss director, the fact that this film was scheduled for January is an eyebrow raiser. No one here is saying this movie is a pile of garbage, but why...

"You ever walk into a situation where you know exactly what's going to happen, and you go into it anyway? And when what you're afraid of happens, you kick yourself because you should have known better, but that's just who you are, so you keep punishing yourself."

The first time I sought out a recap of a television show it was the last episode of the first season of Lost. My buddy forwarded it to me in gchat and I read it very carefully. Happy to know I wasn't crazy that a giant bird really did say...

Dear Netflix,

I have found someone else whom I think the world of. I think the only way out is for us to get a divorce. This just isn't working out anymore.

When we first met I would come home and be excited to see you waiting for me....

DC and Marvel comics have done it (Batman vs. Captain America), shows on the same network have done it (Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice, Law & Orders, Two and a Half Men and CSI), but the idea of shows from different networks crossing over had been taboo. Until Cougar Town...

If you were watching MLB playoffs on TBS this past week then you know that The Big Bang Theory will premiere today in syndication. Which raises the question: where did all the good syndicated shows go?

We used to be able to take solace in the fact...

Sex and the City, The Flintstones, Dukes of Hazard, The Honeymooners and Bewitched. Those are five reasons why making a movie out of a beloved television series is a bad idea. Need more examples? Because I could go on! And yet: the idea of making a film that already has...
