It takes two hours of sequined ball gowns, gratuitous shirtless scenes by the pool, a bipolar pig puppet and handwritten dreams placed inside a magical clock to really appreciate last week's rapidly moving 90-minute premiere. Emily got them in, sized them up and slapped roses on in no...

The "Women Tell All" episode is a right of passage for viewers. ABC insists on making us sit through roughly one hour of B-roll footage we've already seen, 30 minutes of mind-numbing female bickering, 10 minutes of actual entertaining information and 20 minutes of Our Host Chris Harrison casually, yet...

Hands down, this season of "The Bachelor" (Mondays at 8 p.m. EST on ABC) rivals that random Prince's season as the most boring in franchise history. The Feb. 27 episode didn't even come close to entertaining. I would call it a distant cousin of mediocre....

We've put a solid eight weeks into this season of "The Bachelor." Since we were denied any classic shenanigans typically showcased in the ever-popular hometown dates, the least ABC could do is give us more Harrison basking in the romantic glow of the candlelit hotel...

From time to time, I check in with my social media followers by conducting an unofficial poll about current television. I feel it's a pretty easy way to keep my finger on the pulse of what's important when it comes to setting aside precious minutes for those shows worthy of...

I remember the days when Meredith Grey's opening voiceover marked an hour-long journey of medical miracles, snarky banter and at least one hot doctor doing something naughty in an on-call room. Seattle Grace was the place to be on Thursday nights and I embraced the entire hour-long journey. (Except for...

Oh the bad boy. We love him. We loathe him. And somehow, against our better judgment, he inevitably entices us to love him again. Typically, we find our heart willing to offer him a second or third chance after he turns on that smoldering gaze. He retorts with a snarky...

The Bachelor is back people. Our favorite vineyard owner Ben (whom I call Groban) has traded his colorful Henley t-shirts and grey Levis for a presentable back coat, tie and long shaggy locks and he's looking for love!
Competing with 24 other girls is hard work. One must develop...

I've been recapping The Bachelor and obsessing over our host Chris Harrison's blue eyes for more than eight years. Each season when ABC posts the head shots and few facts about the women vying for the love and affection of the latest lucky guy to date 25 ladies, I quickly...

Each year, there inevitably comes a time in late December when I'm in my car and I force myself to pause and really appreciate the merry moments from the current holiday season. This tradition typically creeps up on me when I am stuck in unexplainable traffic only to realize that...
