Community’s Moment of Goodness: Jeff Gets Blackmailed by a Kid
In “Celebrity Pharmacology†Annie takes on the task of putting on a play for 50 at risk teenagers. She thinks if she’d seen something like what the group is doing when she was younger, she would never have gotten into drugs. The problem comes when Pierce manipulates Annie and the...
First Watch: USA Network’s Fairly Legal “Pilot”
So y’all already know, if it’s shot in Vancouver, I’m going to watch it, at least once. Fairly Legal (formerly Facing Kate) had that going for it right out of the gate when it was announced last summer. The fact that it’s a funny, sweet, little-bit-goofy show is a lovely bonus. I’m a...
Fairly Legal’s Moment of Goodness: Kate Sees Justice Done
I think I’m really gonna like Sarah Shahi‘s Kate. Not only does she seem to be able to talk herself out of any jam, but she’s more interested in seeing justice done then following the exact letter of the law. Even though she’s no longer a lawyer I’m glad to...
Moment of Goodness: Hannah and Brennan Bond on Bones
After struggling with whether or not to tell Hannah that Bones has feelings for him (and even going so far as to talk to Sweets about it), Booth decides to spill. At first Hannah is embarrassed and unsure of how to deal with the situation. She cancels on Bones three...
Love to Hate ‘Em: Ben Chang from Community
I am all about loving to hate Ken Jeong‘s Ben Chang. I’m not sure who decided to bring him on after the pilot was shot, but that person might be a genius. Let’s get our hate on.
Mid-Season TV Crushes: NBC’s Parks & Recreation
I hear this show has come a long way from its early days, but I still don’t watch it. That doesn’t mean we can’t have mid-season crushes on Adam Scott and Rob Lowe. It just means we’ll admire from afar.
Get With the Program: Community, Season One Part 2
Every day this week we’re doing something on Community and calling it COUNTDOWN TO GOODNESS. We hope you’re as excited for it’s return as we are. The second half of Season One brings us some awesome episodes. You know which ones I’m talking about. But instead of doing recaps, let’s...
Guest Star Goodness: Grey’s Anatomy “Adrift and at Peace”
I do not watch Grey’s Anatomy and, quite frankly, I forgot how good it can be. Back in the day I was all about the show but not so much for quite some time. What made me return for one episode, you ask? Mostly Daniel Sunjata and partly Scott Foley....
TV Goodness All-Stars 2010: Danny Pudi & Donald Glover, Community
NBC’s Community is an underrated, hilarious, silly, touching, well-acted series. It has a great cast; there’s no weak link in the bunch. The characters are strange, unique individuals but it’s when they’re together as a study group that magic happens. That probably sounds sappy, but it’s true. The show is...
TV Goodness All-Star 2010: The Ensemble, Burn Notice
I watch a lot of TV. There are shows I’m fanatical about and actors I all but worship. My third pick is the entire ensemble from Burn Notice: Jeffrey Donovan (yes, he’s the lead but he’s also part of the ensemble), Bruce Campbell, Gabrielle Anwar, and Sharon Gless.

Let’s Talk About Will Trent
[Spoilers for “The Blank Expanse of Nothing”] It’s been a minute since I’ve had a good, old-fashioned rant about a TV series, so I’m overdue. If you’ve followed me on IG the last few years (hi!), you know that I yell often and loud about my love for Will Trent....
Tim Rozon Looks Back on SurrealEstate
[Warning: All the spoilers ahead.] To close out our SurrealEstate coverage (for now), I chatted with Tim Rozon about Season 3 and getting the band back together. For the third season, production moved from Newfoundland to Ottawa, and Rozon was ready to dive back in. “We were in a...
George R. Olson Unpacks SurrealEstate Season 3
[Warning: ALL the spoilers ahead.] In case you missed the news last week, SurrealEstate has concluded with its third season, which aired last summer. On Friday, I spoke with series creator George R. Olson and series star Tim Rozon about saying goodbye to the show. You can read that piece...
George R. Olson and Tim Rozon Share Their Gratitude for SurrealEstate’s Run
Since SurrealEstate wrapped its third season six months ago, I’ve checked about once a week to see whether there was any news on cancelled or renewed. As long as there was no decision, there was still hope for a fourth season. This week, series creator George R. Olson let the...
Hulu’s Paradise S1 Weaves Past and Present to Unravel a Murder
One of the nice things about the symbiosis of the entertainment conglomerates is that sometimes streaming shows make their way over to linear outlets. Case in point: ABC has given Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building a primetime slot (after of course tweaking the language for FCC regs) during its...
Scott McCord Talks About Victor’s Expanding World in From Season 3
Closing out our From Season 3 coverage (which you can find here), in the second part of my conversation with Scott McCord, we talk about Victor’s new friendship with Sara, reconnecting with Tabitha, and what might be next for Victor when Season 4 returns in 2026. As we’ve talked about...
Dennis Heaton Talks Murder in a Small Town
Murder in a Small Town wraps its first season Tuesday night on FOX in the US and Wednesday night on Global TV in Canada. For US viewers, it’s been a neat addition to the usual FOX fare to have a slower-paced, small-town murder mystery with a parade of CdnTV peeps...
Harold Perrineau Talks From Season 3
[Warning: Includes spoilers for the Season 3 finale.] How are you doing, FROMily? That finale was A LOT. Thankfully we know we’re going to get more of this story, and you have a year and change to work on your Venn diagram deciphering the OMG WTFery of it all. Last...
Scott McCord Talks From Season 3
From the jump (pun intended), I’ve been a staunch advocate of Victor (and Scott McCord, who plays him), and this season, he’s been put through it. On the heels of sending Tabitha off into the unknown and having her return with his father, he unearths the long-suppressed memory that as...
Corteon Moore Talks From Season 3
From has always been really good about delighting us with mix-and-match character pairings, and this season, we’ve seen Jade and Tabitha, Sara and Victor, Henry and Victor, and Kenny and Acosta team up. As Ellis, Corteon Moore has spent a chunk of time this season paired up with Pegah Ghafoori...
What They Said: Three Revealing Conversations from Survivor’s Remorse “Closure”
WARNING: Spoilers for Survivor’s Remorse “Closure” The latest episode of Starz’s Survivor’s Remorse featured conversations that showed characters really digging deep into their thoughts, emotions and motivations.
Two Takes: The Catch “The Knock-Off”
Who can you trust? If this episode of The Catch was any indication, the answer is just about nobody. Betrayal was running rampant as Felicity (Shivani Ghai) arose from the dead to seduce-con Margot, Gretchen (Maria Thayer, Gotham, The Mindy Project) played gold-hearted Alice 2.0 before swindling Ethan, Tessa jumped...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from Supergirl “Worlds Finest”
Oh, Supergirl. That ending was cold. But I can’t hate on you because the latest episode has quickly become one of my favorites.
What Lucifer Said: Favorite quotes from Supernatural “O Brother, Where Art Thou?”
Supernatural episodes are almost always funny but thanks to the dialogue and a certain man speaking said dialogue, I laughed a lot during “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” You know, when I wasn’t busy fearing for Sam’s life or wondering what in the world was going on with Dean and...
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...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from Supernatural “Angel Heart”
Okay, that was my favorite of all the Claire episodes. In the beginning I think this arc was a bit shaky, to be honest. But I think it ended strong and that’s thanks to the chemistry between the actors as well as the strength of the writing, courtesy of Robbie...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from New Girl “Landline”
Jess has a ladyboner for a new teacher, with a pretty inappropriate last name. I approve. Coach, ever the player, gets in trouble at school for dating (I’m using the term euphemistically here) two school employees at the same time. And Nick imagines himself a sort of secretary when they...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from The Vampire Diaries “I’ll Remember”
Season 5 Episode 1: “I’ll Remember” Writer: Caroline Dries This is odd. It’s an episode of The Vampire Diaries and there’s only one favorite quote from Damon. Of course, he was only in one scene. There are a few Hallucination!Damon quotes included though. What were some of your favorite quotes...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from Brooklyn Nine-Nine “Undercover”
Before we get to my favorite quotes from the episode – and there are kind of a lot, so prepare yourself, let’s take a quick look at what when down in this season 2 premiere. Jake’s back from his undercover assignment and apparently he didn’t miss that much while he...
Diamond Dan, The Mindy Project “We’re a Couple Now, Haters!”
The Mindy Project is back (yay!) with an episode that featured a ton of character development. Before we get to all of that, let’s start with some thoughts on the season three premiere.
