We know you can't wait for the upcoming HBO film on the 2000 Bush-Gore finish, aptly titled Recount, but here's a preview - coming in The New York Times Magazine this Sunday.

Superdelegates are defecting. Maybe I know how Hillary feels.
The "critical success" of my last book left my family broke and tired. My publisher made me pay for my own author tour, my shipping charges, and thousands of dollars of photos they never used. They held onto my royalties months...

There was an interesting, if brief, moment of zen on last night's Bill Maher HBO show, when Maher raised the question of Condi Rice supposedly testing the waters to be picked as John McCain's running mate.

A quintessential commentary on the state of historical literacy in the nation today was heard the other morning on the show that replaced Don Imus, "Boomer and Carton In the Morning" on Sports Radio 66 WFAN. The episode on the station, which through syndication spread Imus across the nation, featured...

Stop-Loss is Hollywood's latest attempt to define the Iraq War and the American troops who have fought in it. And is it the latest to fail.
I'm not a film critic, so I'll skip over the weak script, melodramatic music, and atrocious "southern" accents. But I feel an...

Director Tim Burton is one of the most successful artists in Hollywood. He's a "brand name" director who sells tickets a la Steven Spielberg, Alfred Hitchcock and other iconic figures. You know what to expect: quirky projects, a strong visual flair, black humor and excellent actors. His movies are often...

HBO and Autism: Perfect Together
David Kirby | Posted March 25, 2008 | Entertainment
A lot of adults (myself among them) are arguing very vocally right now over the scope, cause, and impact of autism in America. Acrid debates over mercury, vaccines, special diets, alternative therapies and conceded court cases are flooding the media almost daily.
It's enough to give autism a bad...

John Adams: God Damn America
Steven Waldman | Posted March 20, 2008 | Politics
As I alternate between reruns of Jeremiah Wrights "God Damn America" tirade and first-runs of the HBO's John Adams series, I see a surprising connection. Like many of the Revolutionary era, Adams believed that if we weren't careful, God would damn us or at least withdraw his support.
At some...
The Wire vs. The Sopranos
Erik Lundegaard | Posted March 18, 2008 | Entertainment
I've been meaning to write about HBO's The Wire since the final episode aired nine days ago and now it seems the show's creator David Simon has beaten me to the punch. My bad.
Even so, while Simon's defense of the show's final season is dead-on, and carries unfortunate...
HBO to John Adams: We Think You Were a Slob
Jordan Michael Smith | Posted March 17, 2008 | Off The Bus
Unlike the critics, apparently, I liked the debut episode of the John Adams miniseries on HBO. I'm a sucker for American history, though, and I will be the first to admit I'm not very discriminating in my tastes.
But even I balked at having Adams portrayed by Paul Giamatti....
Gettin' Wiggy With It
Jamie Malanowski | Posted March 17, 2008 | Entertainment
Being the world's most reliable consumer of historical dramas, I obligingly clicked on HBO for the first two episodes of its seven part series on John Adams, which was titled, with no-frills certitude, John Adams. The show was as dutiful, as earnest and as joyless (and ultimately less moving) as...

Last night I dreamed that my shrink ordered me to parade in the park while wearing a tee shirt and a bikini bottom and leading an elephant.
Never mind that I don't have an elephant. Or a bikini. Or even, in real life, a shrink.
I'm in treatment...
