Cortney’s Comedy Corner: Top 3 Moments of the Week [Raising Hope, The Crazy Ones, Modern Family]
While I usually try to find a theme for each week’s Comedy Corner, this week I decided to go with three distinctly different yet equally enjoyable moments. So without further ado:
A Tale of Three Villains, Arrow “State v. Queen”
Warning: Spoilers for the latest Arrow
Cortney’s Comedy Corner: The Mindy Project Turns Cliches Into Comedy Gold
When it comes to TV, cliches are all over the place. Sometimes they make us roll our eyes. Other times, they have a clever and creative twist that catches us by surprise. And this week was one of those times. Normally I’d look at three different shows, but I was…
Character Development: A Glimpse at Diggle’s Personal Life, Arrow “Keep Your Enemies Closer”

Cortney’s Comedy Corner: Guest Star Goodness [New Girl, The Mindy Project, Trophy Wife, The Crazy Ones]
When it comes to comedies, casting is crucial. An unfunny lead or unbelievable sidekick can easily kill a show. So while I value and appreciate the actors who make us laugh week to week, it’s always nice when a show throws a guest star in the mix. And this week’s…
Character Development: Sara’s Island Past Revealed, Arrow “League of Assassins”

[WARNING: Major Spoilers for Arrow “Crucible”] “Living is not for the weak” reveals the truth behind two characters in Arrow “Crucible.”
Character Development: Detective Lance Faces an Old Foe, Arrow “Broken Dolls”
This week’s episode was filled with so much good (and creepy) stuff, but nothing stood out more than Detective Lance. He was the MVP of this episode as far as I’m concerned and I figured it was the perfect week to highlight how far he’s come. While I’ve never disliked…
Cortney’s Comedy Corner: The Crazy Ones, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, The Mindy Project
More great comedy moments happened this week. My top three: Comedy Corner Moment #1: The Crazy Ones Blooper Reel in “Breakfast Burrito Club” Let’s start this article with a question. How many of you have sat in a movie theater, watching the credits roll by, afraid to get up because you…
Character Development: Arrow’s “Identity” Crises
Titled “Identity,†this episode saw our favorite Starling City residents face, acknowledge and attempt to accept their secrets and the various identities affiliated with each. And I loved it. We know that most residents of this city have some sort of secret and I like that the show is finally…

3 Moments of Goodness from Brooklyn Nine-Nine “Johnny and Dora”
The most satisfying part of this season’s finale has to the Jake and Amy kiss. Well, they kiss three times but the last one is the best one — and it means something. The Charles and Rosa dynamic was also great. I love how she’s convinced he doesn’t know anything…
