True Blood 3×10 “I Smell a Rat” TV Review
Things are certainly gearing up for True Blood‘s season finale. “I Smell a Rat” was definitely a set-up for everything that’s going down. So here’s my speculation (which I’ll try to keep out what I know from the books, though … Continue reading
Mad Men 4×05 “The Chrysanthemum and the Sword” TV Review
I felt “The Chrysanthemum and the Sword” was a lighter episode than the ones that came before it. (Lighter in depth of content, not in tone.) A step-up for the next several episodes as the week before ended several plotlines, … Continue reading
Mad Men 4×04 “The Rejected” TV Review
Perhaps the theme of “The Rejected” was that sometimes advertising goes too far or it goes just far enough to reveal our true faces. Of course, this is not the advertising of yesterday. This is not the kind which made … Continue reading
True Blood 3×09 “Everything is Broken” TV Review
Before the spoiler cut, this was the best ending ever. If you hated everything else in True Blood 3×09 “Everything is Broken,” you need to stick through until the last scene. It’s brilliant and over-the-top. Just in the perfect way … Continue reading

Mad Men 4×03 “The Good News” TV Review
Finally, this was the episode I’d been waiting for. One which dug into the lives of other characters besides Don Draper’s very depressing, and mostly likely very short, bachelorhood. We find out where Joan is after ending her Season 3 … Continue reading
True Blood 3×08 “Night on the Sun” TV Review
In “Night on the Sun” episode 3×08, True Blood brings on the vampire porn. I think almost everyone had sex and/or almost died. Lots of blood and nudity. Just the way we like it. Sookie wakes up screaming, and she … Continue reading
True Blood 3×07 “Hitting the Ground” TV Review
Oh, True Blood, I’m glad to see you’re back in form. Good old, supernatural soap opera. I just can’t stay away from you. “Hitting the Ground” was an overall pretty satisfying episode, and they’ve dropped/ended most all the plots which … Continue reading

Links I’ve enjoyed during the last week. And you might too! Fandom • Old Spice Guy Meets Feminist Hulk. This is awesome and talks about the problematic nature of some of the Old Spice YouTube social media campaign. • Match … Continue reading
