As an education major, I tend to freak out when I hear of forbidden teacher-student relationships, real or not. Yet in Glee, it was surprisingly entertaining (not to mention frightening) to watch Rachel pine for Will, and then to see Will take appropriate precautions — thank you boundaries! And yes, this does actually happen. And [...]

First of all, since when did Brody start playing pool like he was at some Southern Illinois pub? Déclassé, Brody. Extremely déclassé.
And then I see Kristin walking down the sidewalk to have dinner with Jayde. My heart was seriously racing. No doubt when Kristin sat down Jayde already had a few drinks in her, only [...]

House took a turn to the carnal on this week’s episode, with the soon-to-be patient, Hank (Troy Garity), collapsing from hypersensitivity to light while on the set of a pornographic film in which he was starring. Are we surprised that House (Hugh Laurie) snatched up this case so quickly?
Episode Summary
We open with where we left [...]

The commercials in the months leading up to George Lopez’s talk show may have given off the impression that it would be a program worth watching. After all, President Obama wouldn’t appear in an ad campaign for and lend his slogan to a televised train wreck, right?
Wrong.
Lopez Tonight kicked off last week on TBS. [...]

From the anxious actors to the janitor who always blurts out his weird thoughts, everyone at TGS can’t wait for the newly hired cast member — the street performing robot — to arrive in the studio. Upon his arrival it’s hard to believe he was the person under all that silver paint. Played by actor [...]

Betty indulges her inner wild child for a features piece on “being fearless.” When she runs into bad boy Bobby — Hilda’s ex-boyfriend from high school and the perennial object of Betty’s pre-adolescent affection — she decides to take driving lessons with him.
Meanwhile, Marc offers Justin some tips on high school: befriend the popular [...]

A shocking discovery was made this week on Community: Abed isn’t a pariah -– he’s a prophet, or a “Middle Eastern eight ball,” according to Shirley.
This conclusion about the quirky and eccentric Abed is reached after his student films are brought back into the show. This time, instead of imaging the cast as members of [...]

Summary:
Although this episode starts with what looks like Bring It On on crack, it’s actually less focused on the comedy and more focused on the lack of diversity in the school’s extracurricular activities. We see Brittany (the blonde cheerleader who doesn’t do much) actually talk, a pretty awesome diva-off between Kurt and Rachel, a messy [...]

This week’s triumphant return of House to the Monday night lineup opened with a group of teenage girls (who seemed as if they’d be more at home on My Super Sweet Sixteen) trying to get into a band’s concert after-party. Amid the hustle and bustle of teenage drama, the headstrong one of the pack (played [...]

What an odd, unexpected and totally pleasing tonal shift this season finale of Mad Men instigated. After 12 weeks of episodes that were steeped in anxiety and misery, this wacky exodus from Sterling-Cooper was the most lighthearted episode of the season.
The episode’s plot sort of reminded me of Ocean’s Eleven, with Sterling-Cooper-Draper-Price releasing themselves from [...]

This week’s episode didn’t seem all that funny. At first I just thought it was because I was secretly hoping Abed would continue his Batman voice from last week’s high-larious episode (it was the only think I could bear to listen to during my Halloween hangover Sunday morning), but then I realized the writers [...]

Episode four has Betty reeling over Daniel’s new assistant, Natalie from the grief support group (by the way—who called that makeover? Who called it?). Not only is it weird to see Natalie de-punked, polished and behind a desk, but as she and Betty later butt heads over Daniel, I find myself liking the [...]

Liz knows who she wants to be the newest “TGS” cast member. His name is Jayden and she must find a way for Jack to think he picked the kid out himself. Lucky for her, Pete’s got a plan, the “Hornberger System,” to surround him with three other carefully selected people Jack will not be [...]

I loved when Kristin and Lo were talking about Heidi’s party and then each would interject comments about Audrina’s laundry. Classic Hills. And Kristin and Brody walking on the beach; Kristin’s wearing a bikini, Brody’s saying, “It may just work out.” Could it get any more romantic?
And then Heidi’s party. First of all, the [...]

One of the questions that has lingered in my mind since the beginning of Mad Men was how the show would handle the JFK assassination, arguably the biggest news story of the decade. Now that the event has come to pass, I am pleased that the creative forces behind the show tackled the subject matter [...]
