Cool Tools is a new show on the DIY Network that’s hosted by comedian Chris Grundy. It’s basically a fun look at power tools, garden tools and the like, include trips to weird places - such as a chainsaw museum.
If you don’t get the network, you can also check out DIY Network’s Cool Tools website. […]

When (The) Big Bang Theory first premiered late this Fall, I thought that it had a lot of potential but needed something else to make it stronger. This is because most of the actors are generally unknowns, with maybe the exception of Kaley Cuoco (8 Simple Rules, Charmed) and Sara Gilbert (The Class, Roseanne).
However, with […]

If you’re lamenting the lack of new episodes for your favorite TV show, check out AOL Video blog’s suggestions for shows you should be watching. Just note that this article/ photo gallery is from Nov 5th, so the Hollywood writer’s strike might  might have affected these shows as well.

The really big one might be Back […]

The New York Times reports that fewer people are watching the new Fall TV series, possibly due to all the video available online, including full TV episodes (both at station sites and through illegal torrent sites). This is likely compounded by the fact that a few of the better ones have not come out yet, […]

It’s a fact that without the Writer’s strike in Hollywood being resolved that writers, actors , production staff and others are affected. In fact, there are five unions in Hollywood, so a lot of the industry and economy are affected. Us viewers are last in line, from this point of view. But as far as […]

Yikes. Huh? Devilishly handsome actor Jerry O’Connell - now married to lovely Rebecca Romijn, ex Stamos) is in a new ABC sitcom, Carpoolers. Did I miss something? First, Miguel Ferrer appears on the new Bionic Woman (which isn’t too bad). I’m thinking, did Ferrer leave the gripping Crossing Jordan, one of my fave TV shows […]

Every season and every episode of Smallville has been leading up to this episode: one of the most gut-wrenchingly sad variations of the Romeo and Juliet I’ve ever seen on TV or read in print. It’s hard to describe without giving away too much - in case you haven’t seen the episode.
All I’ll say is […]

I’m watching the first episode of The Next Pussycat Doll and I have to say I’m a bit shocked. (I’m getting to that.) Now in case you think I’m a dirty old man watch scantily clad young women, consider that I wanted to be a classical, jazz and ballroom dancer in my youth. I have […]

Teri Hatcher Too Old For TV?
BuddyTV asks that question, based on the fact that 42 yr old Teri Hatcher herself has said that. Her Desperate Housewives schedule requires her to sometimes work 14-hr days several days in a row. Being a single mom to an eight-year old surely makes her life even more hectic. Hatcher […]

The very first movie I ever paid money to see (in a theatre) was Star Wars. I’ve watched it on TV for free dozens of times since. Not as many as some people, who’ve seen it literally hundreds of times, but a lot. So I’m definitely one of those that have been hoping for some […]

Vincent D’onofrio, who plays quite possibly my all time fave TV cop, Detective Goren in Law & Order: Criminal Intent, wants to pursue additional film roles and direct as well, so he’s giving up his badge. I don’t know if he’s a method actor, but something tells me he is, considering he says he wants […]

Nicole Richie, daughter of former Commodore  and singer Lionel Richie, and one half of the dumbest pair of actors ever to have their own TV show (The Simple Life) had a collapse - possibly due to anorexia. Richie and Paris Hilton are proof that you can be stupid, insensitive and utterly untalented but get a […]

30Rock’s Alec Baldwin, the beau of the young pneumatic Jennifer Love Hewitt, has a recorded message (Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy Channukah, Happy Kwanzah, Hello) that you can send to your friends. You have to pick choices from several drop-down lists, including your friend’s name, the greeting, where they live, their work and hobby.
Very bizarre. […]

Russell Shaw weighs in on Fox TV’s new ad-supported full-length, high quality videos of eight popuarl TV shows. Odd thing, but I only watch two of these eight, including my fave Bones, but now that it’s online, I might watch Til Death as well. Problem is, the Full Throttle media player plays in a web […]

You wouldn’t think Gene Simmons of Kiss would be all that likeable a character. One’s first exposure to the man tends to lean to the negative, what with the dramatic stage make-up, the extraordinary clothes and boots, and — oh, yes — the tongue.
But that’s not Gene Simmons; that’s the Demon, […]

[UPDATED] This is quite possibly one of the best supernatural-topic TV shows ever produced. And I’ve watched a lot of them in my lifetime. Nothing gives me the chills the way this one does. In fact, I often watch it with the lights out.
The two actors that play brothers Sam and Dean Winchester are well-cast. […]

Jennifer Love Hewitt, whom I liked in the Fox drama Party of Five, plays one of the most useless mediums on TV. In Ghost Whisperer, her character - complete with bad Cleopatra hair cut/ wig - can see and talk to ghosts. She also gets premonitions and is able to interpret some of them. But […]

Psych is either going to be one of those sleeper hits or a total bomb (but if only because it hasn’t been hyped all that much). I almost missed it, intending to watch CSI. However, after rushing out in the rain yesterday to buy myself a TV capture box, I can now obviously record one […]

Don’t live in the US or Canada and miss NFL (National Football League) games? The NFL is partnering with Yahoo! to offer a couple of different plans which let you watch online either week by week or for an entire season. At US$24.99/week or $249.99/season (17 weeks), it’s darn pricey. However, the service is aimed […]

The Wall Street Street Journal has a short piece about finding new TV shows that are previewing on the Internet but are not on TV yet. (Access to the article may require free registration.) The article points to the New York Television Festival website (on MSN), which gives you access to previews of loads of […]
