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 [...]

Ohio State, Penn State and Iowa all rolled over very formidable opponents, while Northwestern and Purdue won in the battle of who was worse.

This installment, though lacking full ensemble choruses, gives focus to single characters: Will sings and dances (breakdances, rather) like whoa to “Bust a Move” and “The Thong Song,” Emma sings My Fair Lady and Puck sings “Sweet Caroline” to Rachel, yet gets some puppy-eyed looks from Quinn. The premise is that Emma and Ken are [...]

In this episode:
Like last week’s episode, the study group is fragmented into separate storylines, each involving a few of the main characters. Jeff agrees to “represent” Britta in a satirical tribunal after she is caught cheating by their creepy Spanish teacher.
Jeff overly “friendly” flirting with his crush persists throughout their [...]

There were two main themes in the Big Ten this week: close games and rushing.

For those readers who have never even heard of Dexter, you’ve picked the perfect time to get interested. This show really gets you thinking and probes your morals, all the while exploring the age-old debate of nature versus nurture.
Basically, Dexter Morgan witnessed his mother’s violent, bloody murder at the age of two, and after [...]

There’s no fun in the office when Michael really screws up. Michael sabotaging Jim’s hope for a managerial position (which he gets in the end) made for a dour episode. The plot forwarding was necessary, and a promotion for Jim is long overdue, but it left the episode lacking for jokes.
That left the funny up [...]

Ah, the power of dance. While the fourth installment of Glee started out a little slowly, it certainly shaped up to the past three episodes by the musical and dancing styles of Beyoncé. There’s not much singing, but we see Coach Sylvester’s new segment (“Sue’s Corner”) on the local news station, a new and more [...]

I love Mad Men. I love its witty dialogue, authentic sets, wonderful acting and winning blend of melodrama and high comedy. I love the show so much that I am spending my penultimate night of Wildcat Welcome week writing about this episode. But all that love will be put to the test if Christina Hendrickson’s [...]

I was initially hesitant to watch Fox’s Glee, expecting it would be a recap of my high school years and summers at a theatre camp. Luckily, I was wrong. Fox advertised just enough and premiered its pilot about a newly formed after-school glee club months in advance to receive high anticipation for its season. It’s [...]

Big Ten football was exciting, topsy-turvy and generally disappointing this weekend.

So for nostalgia’s sake, I went through and watched the first half of season one over the weekend. It’s interesting to see the direct contrast between then and now, even just between now and earlier this season. It’s just my opinion, but the storylines seem to be all over the place and coming out [...]

I don’t have time to write a fancy introduction (I’ve been shopping for a baby shower present for Caprica-Six) so let’s just get to it. Here’s a recap of this week’s Battlestar Galactica episode, “A Disquiet Follows My Soul”

I’m starting to chronicle this glorious sitcom midway through the fourth season, so I’ll give you a quick crash-course on the characters and this season thus far.
The show is framed around the main character, Ted Mosby, his friends, and his quest for love in Manhattan. The season premiere opens with an older Ted talking to [...]

The first episode of the final Battlestar Galactica season (I’m pretty sure it’s the final season this time) aired on Friday. Let’s get to it!
