Musings on child stars...
Tuesday, 28 August 2007 7:58 P GMT-06
Thanks to Heroes last year, the Australian television networks have finally figured out a very important fact - namely, the internet exists. Heroes had fabulous ratings here, but not as good as they should have been. Why? Because Australian televisio

Something Sandy said in her review of that most excellent of historicals, The Serpent Prince, really struck me and I thought I'd expand a little on the implications of the statement. At the very end, Sandy talks about giving Hoyt her third DIK re

Mad Men

The last thing I needed was to get hooked on another TV series. But, as an ad agency vet, how could I not get hooked on a series depicting the world of advertising in 1960? But AMC's first original television series is about so much mo

An Unwelcome Ghost Hunters Reveal
Thursday, 23 August 2007 4:49 P GMT-06
Okay, so I am a Ghost Hunters geek. And let me just go right on the record: I really liked Jason, Grant, and Steve when I met them and they absolutely seem to be exactly the very same guys that they appear to be on TV.They're not abou
A Roundabout by any other name still....STINKS!
Tuesday, 21 August 2007 7:06 A GMT-06
A month ago I posted about my terror of a local roundabout. Well, as the month has gone by, I've gotten used to the roundabout, and even doing a bit better navigating its curves. Just yesterday, only one driver honked at me in anger as I made my

Sometimes goofing around on the Internet will actually turn up something interesting. A reference somewhere (and exactly where is lost in the mist of my memory) led me to the Wikipedia entry on a reported entity that apparently terrorized the p

I've given years of loyalty to way too many reality television shows, only to be disappointed, time after time. Well, okay, once in a great while someone wins that I'm rooting for, but not usually. But tonight, my choice was selected as

Still Crazy
Wednesday, 15 August 2007 3:07 P GMT-06
This is one of my favorite and oft neglected movies.Released in 1998, Still Crazy is the story of a reunion tour of a washed up 70s brand called Strange Fruit. The stars of this British film are pretty impressive: Stephen Rea, Bill Nighy,
Online Matters
Tuesday, 14 August 2007 9:19 A GMT-06
The Publisher Who Will Not Be Named still refuses to include online editorial reviews in their books. I find that somewhat amusing. You see, they've had this policy for years now and, apparently, don't see any need to rethink it d

The World's Best Vanilla Ice Cream?
Saturday, 11 August 2007 7:09 A GMT-06
I'm not a huge desert person. I would much rather munch on something salty (chips, nuts, pickles, olives) than on chocolate (I know, heresy, but it's the truth). But when summer comes around, in addition to my usual salty snacks, I want

Blood Ties returns to Lifetime with ten (!) new episodes in just two months.I'd heard that the network had picked up the back half of the series, but there wasn't any word on just when they'd get around to showing them. Until now.Ac

A Totally Unofficial (So Far) Heads-Up on a Great Book
Wednesday, 8 August 2007 1:55 P GMT-06
One of the best things about being a reviewer and having contacts within the publishing industry is that you get to read books early. That's always fun, but, to be honest, it's been a very long time since I've been this excite
A Well-Matched Pair

Just recently I watched the new James Bond movie with Daniel Craig in the title role. While I'm a die-hard Pierce Brosnan fan from way back (Remington Steel days), I was very pleased with Craig in the role. And I really

New diet craze?
Saturday, 4 August 2007 8:44 P GMT-06
I've kept really quiet about this for the last couple of weeks, because (for an unknown reason that my family and friends assure me is really silly), I find the idea of abdominal complaints and surgery vaguely embarrassing and private. But someth
