Supernatural: Free to Be You and Me

Well, here was an interesting twist: As more hunters find out that Sam isn’t hunting and that he once drank lots of demon blood to fight demons, they’re gonna be looking for him.

The question is, now that all the demons of hell have been unleashed, will Sam be able to fight them using the demon [...]

Behind the 8-ball

I have not had a chance to watch Flash Forward or this week’s Supernatural yet. I will see them before the weekend’s out and muse upon them in this spot. I know you can’t wait.
Meanwhile, here’s a tidbit of news for you: Stephen Root will have a “multiepisode arc” on 24’s Season 8, according to [...]

Boycotting the Emmys

I went back and forth on whether I’d live-blog the Emmys tonight, mainly because, after all, this is a TV blog.
But then I thought about it.

Where’s Battlestar Galactica? Kings? Did Jericho ever get any love?
Sure, critical darlings 30 Rock and The Office, though relatively low-rated (compared with the CSI juggernaut, anyway) get lots of Emmy [...]

Supernatural: Where in the hell is God?

I just need to start off by saying Thursday’s episode had so much of the humor that makes Supernatural also enjoyable.
I mean, “Spirit in the Sky” playing as the background music as Sam & Dean stroll into Demon Central, for us only to discover that the song’s actually playing on the radio of one of [...]

Supernatural: The boys are back in town

An excellent start to Season 5 last night, with a reluctant host for Lucifer, a rift growing between the brothers and demons aplenty running amok.
One of the things I find most fascinating about the show is that while the demons are obviously bad, the angels aren’t so … well, angelic. In fact, the angels that [...]

Supernatural returns tonight!

And, yes, I’m watching.
The CW lists tonight’s episode as “Sympathy for the Devil” (I’m guessing we’re going to hear a little of the Rolling Stones on the soundtrack, no?) and here’s the official description:
Picking up where the finale left off, Dean (Jensen Ackles) and Sam (Jared Padalecki) watch as the Devil (guest star Mark Pellegrino, [...]

3 new boys join the 24 cast

They’re Rami Malek, Julian Morris and Hrach Titizian and will be on for several episodes apiece, at least.

According to The Hollywood Reporter:
• Malek will play  Marcos, a would-be suicide bomber who is Arab American with sympathies toward radical Islam
• Morris will play a CTU SWAT agent
• Titizian will play Nabeel, the second-in-command of security for [...]

Totally cool Lost posters, plus some casting news

I have to tell you, ABC totally has learned how to do the viral thing with Lost in its roster.

To commemorate the final season, there’s 16 “top designers and artists” who also are fans of the show who have been commissioned “to create artwork celebrating one of the series’ most memorable, and unforgettable, ‘water cooler’ [...]
