Another fresh episode of my show, Reality Obsessed tonight.
In this one, I determine how crazy is too crazy for reality television by employing my banana meter.
The episode preview is:
Reality TV thrives on outrageous characters and it seems like the nuttier the better. But, when you lock extreme characters up in the America’s Next Top Model, [...]

Author’s Note: Comment with your favorite and least favorite castaways this season and why. I’d like to see who your favorites are too!
What is going on in this game?!?!
I’m so confused. In the five immunity challenges so far, the Heroes have lost four of them. Sure, tribes have lost a lot of immunities in past [...]

The 4th Season Finale of “Big Love” aired this past Sunday, and surprisingly enough… Bill Henricksen actually won the election for State Senator. And the question this entire season, aside from if he would win or not, was if Bill and family would be strong enough to actually out their polygamist lifestyle publicly. And what [...]

This is the last leg before the Top 12. You’d think the singers would come in with guns blazing. You’d be wrong.

In true “Big Love” fashion, and like I said in my review from two weeks ago, some issues are brought up only to be resolved when you least expect it. This past episode of the always intriguing HBO series seemed to put all the issues on the table and tried to resolve them within the [...]

her fresh episode of my show, Reality Obsessed tonight.
In this one, I see if the bitches we love on reality TV are really that way or if they are just playing a character.
The episode preview is:
Does Reality TV capitalize on the monster and play up the predisposition of the participant… or do they create them? [...]

A pretty good indicator of how “into” a series I am is my eagerness to write a column. What is it, Wednesday now?
Truth be told, this week’s episode of 24 was a vast improvement over the past few weeks. I actually got the sense that this was the token “turning point” episode in [...]

Throughout the first half of this episode I was ready to write it off as filler, but this actually ended up being a really enjoyable, surprisingly significant episode. Although I do find it somewhat amusing – and odd – that the writers have said in the past that they hate doing holiday themed episodes, [...]

While this season was hyped as “Clark’s darkest hour,” I’m glad to say that the future Superman has remained the moral center of the series. Sure, he exchanged his blue jeans and red jacket for an all black outfit — and he did for a short while distance himself from his human relationships — [...]

Everyone gets to experience the wonderful feeling of keeping their lips sealed, and a lot of asses get kicked to a lot of curbs.

Blink: Addison pops in for a quick visit. Alex and Lexie kiss their relationships goodbye. Cristina chooses Teddy over Owen. And no, it’s not another lesbian storyline.

Previewing a reality show is sort of like trying to figure out your NFL teams potential from the offseason workouts – darn near impossible. But here I am, trying to do it anyway, talking about the “x-factors” for this upcoming season, including Cowell, the semifinal format, and the guy from Perfect Strangers.

You can mark me down for any episode where Coach’s first line is “Gracie doesn’t have any pants.”
That’s what we were treated to on the eighth episode of the superb fourth season of Friday Night Lights. And it only got better from there.
“The Toilet Bowl” saw some of our favorite characters struggling with the notion [...]

This was a rather disheartening episode of Heroes for me. It didn’t really have anything to do with what happened during the episode, it was more about my enthusiasm – or lack thereof – going into it. Truth be told, I wasn’t even completely aware that a new episode was coming before I [...]

Ah, Heroes. What more can be said? This series is like that person in your life that you have special feelings for – you’re willing to make excuses to yourself and others to justify their behavior, but when you ultimately come to realize what they’ve become, it stings that much more.
As I’ve mentioned [...]

The poster for the sixth season of Desperate Housewives warned us to “Never Underestimate a Housewife”. It couldn’t have been more accurate! This season has had from solid to excellent episodes so far this year, and for a serialized show to stay fresh, after six years, is harder than it sounds. I have divided my [...]

Meghan Rickey and Cheyne Whitney are the best Amazing Racers of all-time. Murtz has gotten to know them quite well over the last few weeks and his friendship with them caused him to become more heavily involved in this finale as he would have taken them losing pretty hard.
Luckily, that didn’t happen [...]

Rickey had this to say in regard to last week’s review:
Sylar lost all of the powers he stole in season 1 after he was “killed” except for his telekinsis
I’m not quite sure which “death” Rickey is referring to, but this is simply incorrect. Since the beginning of this season, he’s used his healing ability, [...]

Hey there, desperate fans! It’s episode 7 of our beloved show’s sixth season, and I welcome you to this week’s review!
Spoiler-free zone:
We are in episode seven and I still see nothing tiring about this season. This episode stays true to the shows essence, and while it isn’t emotionally driven, it manages to move the mystery [...]

I was not exactly thrilled by this episode. The whole story of a mobster angry at the disappearance of his church’s holy healing bible just seemed way too far-fetched to have any believability. It was amusing to watch once but not an episode I would readily watch repeatedly.
We start out with a few of the [...]
