2018 Oscar Winners

Josh Zyber — Mon, 05 Mar 2018 07:00:25 +0000

Following a year where Hollywood nearly self-destructed from countless scandal after scandal and huge cultural shifts, I suppose the fact that this year’s Oscars were largely boring and uneventful is something of a relief. The ultimate Best Picture winner, ‘The Shape of Water’, was perhaps a mild upset (‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’ appeared to...

‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ 9.01 Recap: “Type + Distance = No Door Hold”

Josh Zyber — Thu, 05 Oct 2017 12:00:04 +0000

Six years since the last episode aired, one might be tempted to call the new season of ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ a revival. But no, that’s just the way this show works. A new season happens when Larry David feels like making one, and all his friends come together without missing a step. The ninth season...

‘The Boss Baby’ Review: Goo-Goo Crap-Crap

Philip Brown — Thu, 30 Mar 2017 16:00:05 +0000

So, there’s this baby. He’s not like any baby, though. He talks and acts like a boss. That’s wacky. That’s the entire movie. It’s pretty dreadful. Another month, another CG-animated family flick. So it goes. These things are more common than pretty much any other form of film these days. They vary dramatically in quality....

2017 Oscar Winners

Josh Zyber — Mon, 27 Feb 2017 06:55:02 +0000

The Oscars ceremony last night was marked by high drama, controversy and a stunning upset. Honestly, I’m having trouble believing it myself, but indeed the shocking fact remains that Lin-Manuel Miranda did not EGOT… … yet. I’m sure he’ll get another chance in the future. In the meantime, despite the enormous pressure from seemingly the...

2016 Emmy Winners

Josh Zyber — Mon, 19 Sep 2016 21:00:42 +0000

The Emmy Awards aired on Sunday and I barely even noticed. Once again, my interest in this ceremony was minimal. Nonetheless, I feel obligated to mention here that they happened. I watched Jimmy Kimmel’s opening monologue, which was pretty funny, and walked into the room a couple of times here and there to catch a...

2013 Emmy Winners

Josh Zyber — Mon, 23 Sep 2013 17:00:50 +0000

Remember all that hoopla from earlier this year about how the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences made the bold move of nominating the online-only Netflix series ‘House of Cards’ and ‘Arrested Development’ for several major Emmy awards? Well, that all came to naught last night when both shows were shut out of the big...

Emmy Winners 2012

Josh Zyber — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 16:00:23 +0000

Oh, right. The Emmy Awards happened over the weekend. That’s something notable that we should probably mention here. Of course, it wasn’t notable enough for me to actually watch the thing. Did you? I’ll do the Oscars and even the Golden Globes, but that’s about the extent of the awards-show viewing I can take. For...

2012 Emmy Nominations

Josh Zyber — Fri, 20 Jul 2012 17:00:26 +0000

This year’s Emmy Award nominations were announced yesterday. Surprisingly, some of my favorite shows actually made the short list. Unfortunately, it’s all for naught, given that the same series that won last year and the year before are destined to win yet again. Oh well, as the saying goes, “It’s nice to be nominated.” No...

Next Season on ABC: ‘Found’?

Josh Zyber — Mon, 24 May 2010 12:20:08 +0000

Well, it’s over. I can’t believe that there’s no more ‘Lost’. This is going to be a major hole in my TV-watching life. I intend to have a full recap with a lot of thoughts about the finale soon, but I’m short on time and still processing it. For now, I can just give my...
