When the 2014 Emmy Award nominations were announced a couple weeks ago, I had intended to write up a post about it for the blog. Although that never happened, let’s use this week’s Roundtable to talk about some of our favorite TV shows from this past year that were inexplicably overlooked by Emmy. The complete...

Witty and prolific crime novelist Elmore Leonard passed away on Tuesday at the age of 87.

Josh Zyber — Tue, 15 Jan 2013 16:00:55 +0000

I wish that I had enough time to fully discuss every TV show that I watch here in the blog. Sadly, there just aren’t enough hours in the day, especially these days. One that really deserves more attention than I’m able to give it is ‘Justified’, which began its fourth season on FX last week....

TV Madness: Givens vs. Spartacus

Aaron Peck — Fri, 25 May 2012 17:00:03 +0000

It looks like Jack Bauer has easily defeated Echo. That was pretty much expected. This next TV Madness match-up, however, leaves me wondering which character will move on. Spartacus already showed that he can still pull out a win even when dealing with a technological time gap. Sporting nothing but a sword and a chiseled...
