Our last TV box set contest a couple weeks ago drew only a modest response. I think that perhaps we’ll do better with a more exciting prize. ‘The Walking Dead’ is one of the most popular shows on television, and ...
As August winds down, we prepare to say goodbye to the summer and, hopefully, to the Blu-ray dry spell we’ve experienced lately. This week actually has a bunch of titles of some moderate interest, but (from my perspective) f...

Who doesn’t love to play games? Everybody loves to play games. Watching other people play them on TV can be a lot of fun too. For this week’s Roundtable, let’s discuss our favorite TV game shows.
As promotion for the upcoming sequel that you may have heard a thing or two about recently, all six of the earlier ‘Star Wars’ movies will be re-released on Blu-ray this fall. Big shock, right? The discs will get new S...
