Scream Queens 2.01 Recap: “Becoming a Doctor Was Never the Dream”

Josh Zyber — Thu, 22 Sep 2016 14:00:15 +0000

Fox’s imperfect but fun horror spoof ‘Scream Queens’ has returned for a second season of skewering genre conventions. Even though the setting and horror theme have changed, it turns out that the show is not exactly an anthology like creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk’s ‘American Horror Story’. Many of last season’s characters are back...

‘My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2’ Review: Bigger, Greeker, More Pointless

Philip Brown — Mon, 28 Mar 2016 15:00:37 +0000

Say what you will about the decade-late sequels to ‘Anchorman’ and ‘Zoolander’, but at least those movies had adoring cult audiences that demanded sequels for so long that their creators eventually gave in. ‘My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2’, on the other hand, exists purely to make a quick buck. The original ‘My Big Fat...

‘Fuller House’ Pilot Recap: “Cut. It. Out!”

Josh Zyber — Mon, 29 Feb 2016 20:00:38 +0000

Of all the old TV shows that might get the “dark and gritty” reboot treatment, I have to say that I’m very surprised by what Netflix has done to ‘Full House’, that defining example of shitty 1990s family TV. Not that I have any particular attachment to the old show, mind you, but the new...

‘Galavant’ Pilot & 1.02 Recaps: “Maybe You’re Not the Worst Thing Ever”

The ads for ABC’s self-proclaimed “comedy extravaganza” ‘Galavant’ have looked… oh, what’s the word? “Godawful” comes to mind. “Insufferable” is another good description. However, appearances can be deceiving. I watched the premiere out of morbid curiosity, if little else. Come to find out, the show is surprisingly not so terrible at all. It’s even, dare...

‘Glee’-Cap 2.15: “Welcome to My Sacred Sexy Sharing Circle”

Josh Zyber — Tue, 15 Mar 2011 17:00:30 +0000

On more than a few occasions in the past, ‘Glee’ has courted controversy with racy content that parents might find inappropriate for the younger viewers who are otherwise drawn to the show’s musical numbers. (I have quite a few friends who need to screen episodes before letting their kids watch.) Last week pushed the boundaries...

‘Glee’-Cap 2.02: “It’s a Britney Spears Sex Riot!”

Josh Zyber — Tue, 05 Oct 2010 17:00:15 +0000

With the success of the Madonna-themed episode last season, the producers of ‘Glee’ decided to jump right in this year with a much-hyped Britney Spears episode. The potential here is enormous. Does it live up? For the most part, yes. This is due largely to the show’s other Brittany, who’s finally been given a front-and-center...

‘Entourage’ 7.04 Recap: “It’s Gonna Be a Long Day for Uncle Jesse”

Josh Zyber — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 13:00:34 +0000

Is it even possible? A new episode of ‘Entourage’ that has a pretty fair number of solid laughs? I can hardly believe it. I’ve gotten so used to the show just sort of being there, something I continue to watch out of obligation because it once used to be great, a long time ago. While...
