The show you should be watching...

Glee, yeah I was a little hesitant at first especially since I'm not into musicals and such, but if you've been avoiding this show like the swine flu, you should stop and reconsider. The premise is based around a rekindled glee club at a high school swamped with cynical minded people...point a finger to funny woman Jane Lynch who is the principal. She and the rest of the cast spew the laugh out loud lines written for them and then go on to sing awesome covers as part of their extracurricular activities.

Check out a clip of the show and a cover performed on last night's epidsode and make sure to watch every Wednesday at 9 on Fox.

Movie Pick of the Week!

An Education circled all the festivals in 2009 and now is opening in limited release throughout the United States. The film follows a 16 year old girl, played by Carey Mulligan, who falls in love with an older man, played by Peter Saarsgard, in 1960s suburban London. The Variety clip below shows snippets from the film along with interviews from the actors. The movie is based on a memoir and was penned as a screenplay by writer Nick Hornby. Definitely one to check out!

Add Ally McBeal to your Queues!

I don't know about the majority of the world but when the show debuted in 97 I was still in grade school and did not get caught up in the crazy legal world of Ms. McBeal. Twelve years later, seven since the show finished, alot has changed in the world of television(including the availability of HD programming on the major networks), but Ally's world has stayed the same and the entire series can be bought or rented, having been released just yesterday! I'm intrigued since all I remember from the show is a dancing baby hallucination...

Real Housewives update


The Real Housewives of New Jersey is coming back in 2010 along with a new geographic counterpart in DC. Very excited for season 2 of the feisty ladies of NJ and interested to see what goes down in the nation's capital. The New Jersey branch off was the series' highest rated topping Orange County, NYC, and Atlanta so Bravo definitely had to bring it back.

Why Zombieland is #1!

If you didn't attend this comedy on its opening weekend you missed out! Many would think from the trailer its just another silly movie to ignore and not to put on their radar, but if you've done so I urge you to think again. The movie is well written, laugh out loud funny, and even poignant at times. In a point of time when Vampires are the monster of choice...I throw my vote in the zombie ballot! Plus Emma Stone kicks butt!

CNN agrees!

Flashforward has gone global

Just like in the premise of the show, Flashforward, the impact is not only State-side. ABC has sold the new fall hit to the various global markets. So far the first two episodes have been suspenseful and leaving audiences, like me, asking for more. The only downfall for the show is its 8pm timeslot, which is too early for me, although DVR generally solves all such problems, and I could do without the show's production team pointing out the specific pieces I should be paying attention to (kangaroo in first episode; like how could we miss that in the middle of LA?) It definately is my must see new fall drama; so if you haven't been watching, now is the time to catch up.
