This post is off topic, but I need to vent.
I was shopping at Trader Joe’s earlier and there was an older, well dressed woman talking on her cell phone with her cart parked against the bread shelves so that no one could have access. I waited a few moments and another women with a baby pulled up and exchanged a little “what the heck?” glance and we both waited a bit...

Smallville: Season 11, Episode 1
What if Smallville had one more season left, what might happen next? If I were writing the show, I might center the focus on Lex’s genetically engineered double. PopWatch’s Jeff Jensen said it best, “Smallville was strongest when it was as much about Lex’s evolution of evil as (it was of) Clark’s coming of age.” I would explore that well of stories for another, say, nine...

Are you watching Shameless yet? Showtime’s Shameless stars William H. Macy as Frank Gallagher, the deadbeat father of six, who leaves his eldest daughter, Fiona (played by Emmy Rossum) to clean up the family’s many messes.
Fiona takes the responsibility of child-rearing which often results in unconventional problem solving. For example: in Ep. 4, the middle Gallagher child Debbie, ...

I remember reading that Smallville producer’s declared early on that this Clark Kent would never wear the iconic red and blue suit and would never fly. Um, OK. I’m guessing they made that statement before they realized that the show would run for 10 seasons and fans would expect a bigger payoff at the end of the run.
I’m still a fan. The Superman prequel may have...

In Praise of Smallville
I didn’t read comics as a kid, unless you count Archie or Josie and the Pussycats, but one of my favorite shows growing up was Superman. For years I suffered through countless retellings of how I safety pinned a red bath towel to my pajamas and refused to watch the show in any other attire.
Lois & Clark was fun. The 70’s film franchise with Christopher Reeve was...

Work hard, laugh often
Every time we turn on the radio or read a paper, it seems that the bad news just keeps on coming. Well you know what? I’m SICK of it! That’s why taking a 1/2 hour vacation from chaos to watch silly comedies like 2 Broke Girls help.
In 2 Broke Girls, Max and Caroline are two young women from entirely different lifestyles who find themselves working the night shift at a...
