I think Bert Cooper said it best when he spoke to Don at the end of this week's Mad Men. Bert: A client left here unhappy yesterday because you have a little girl running everything. Don: My department is fine. We just need more bodies but Lane won't let us. Bert: You've been on love leave. It's amazing things are ...

The One Where I Talk About Television
Just because I stopped trying to write about television, doesn't mean I stopped watching it. I still follow a slightly unhealthy amount of shows (HIMYM, TBBT, The Office, Modern Family, Parks and Recreation, 30 Rock, Community, Mad Men, and Game of Thrones). Here are some thoughts I've had lately. Has CBS forgotten about Ted? Call me ...
Roseanne
Sometimes I do things, regarding television, that just seem stupid to other people. I like to watch a series from the beginning to the end regardless of whether I'm enjoying it or not. For example, Seinfeld. The past couple of months I've spent watching all nine seasons of Roseanne. I've learned a few things while being ...
HIMYM – Tick Tick Tick
My heart broke when I watched this episode. Maybe I'm took invested. Maybe this isn't how it ends. Maybe things will work out in the end but now, I'm about as broken on the inside as Barney is.
HIMYM – Mystery vs. History
This week's episode of How I Met You Mother - Mystery vs. History had two great story lines which managed to tie themselves together. For once, this season, I wasn't dreading the scene change to Marshall and Lily. Ted was back to being his usual, self-destructive dating self. At the beginning of the episode, Ted lands himself a date ...
Big Bang Theory – The Russian Rocket Reaction
The Big Bang Theory is one of those shows this season which I've felt like it's taken some time to get back in it's groove. I haven't felt the story line has been up to par nor have I thought the jokes to be on and nor have I really seen some spectacular acting. but this ...
Community – Remedial Chaos Theory
Community came full force this week. Every now and then they have an episode that goes above and beyond the usual methods for storytelling. For example, the two(/three) paintball episodes, the second season Christmas episode, Abed's birthday, and the Dungeons and Dragons episode. This was one of those episodes. The episode revolves around a housewarming party Troy ...
The Office – Garden Party
What I've noticed The Office to be lacking this season, came back full force in this week's episode, Garden Party. The show has been missing comedic charm and the back and forth between the characters. It's almost as though when Steve Carell left The Office, the actors and actresses who had come to know each other ...
Modern Family: Hit and Run
I'm a recent convert to Modern Family and I can easily understand why. This show is great, multi-faceted and never in danger of not having something going on. There are some who will tell you that they have issue with all of the dads on the show because they're typical sitcom dads who'll screw something up ...
HIMYM – Field Trip
I'll admit, when I updated the layout of my website a couple of months ago, I thought it'd be a lot easier to keep up writing about new episodes of my favorite shows on a regular basis. It's not, as it turns out. I think it has to do with me playing catch up all ...
