Previewing Lifetime’s The Bad Seed
[Warning: General spoilers ahead.] Lifetime Television has essentially built its brand around the woman-in-peril thriller, occasionally dipping a toe in what I affectionately call “prestige cheese”–films that stay on brand and cater to that thriller/peril model but elevate it with the production values and casting. The Bad Seed, debuting Sunday…

TV Goodness Teaser: A First Look at Comedy Central’s Moonbeam City [VIDEO]
Comedy Central’s Moonbeam City is officially on my TV radar. It’s a new animated series that made its debut Thursday at Comic-Con 2014. I’m not going to lie. My main reason for tuning in is Rob Lowe voicing a lead character that dresses a lot like Don Johnson’s Miami Vice detective Sonny…
