Review: New Girl, “Bells”
Posted by Cory Barker on November 30, 2011 · 3 Comments
Doing end-the-year lists really forces you to evaluate or re-evaluate your opinion on something.

The 2011 Primetime Emmys are so close! September 18th to be exact. Up until the ceremony airs on FOX, I’ll be working through most of the major categories and discussing who could win, who should win and of course, who will win. I’ll likely be tackling two categories in each post, just so you know. Happy … Read more

I’m swamped tonight so this dual review is going to be a bit short. Apologies or you’re welcome, depending on how you typically view my reviews! Comedies are supposed to be funny. This is a general rule that like to live by, but the world of television sure does love to muck up the already … Read more

2010-2011 season wrap: The top 10 series of the season
Posted by Cory Barker on May 31, 2011 · 1 Comment
The 2010-2011 television series officially ended last week. Obviously, there will be a lot of great television coming in the summer months ahead and it is sort of silly to stick to the ancient constructs of the broadcast television season (which ran from September 20, 2010 to May 25, 2011 this season), but I’ve never … Read more

Posted by Cory Barker on December 28, 2010 · 4 Comments
2010 has been a fantastic year for television. This year brought us a slew of great new programs and if we include the second halves of all the series that debuted in the fall of 2009 (which I am for these features), we have probably just experienced the best run of newbies since 2004.
