The “Glee Super Bowl” episode — It just sounds wrong, doesn’t it? Of all the shows in its repertoire, FOX made the bold, ironic choice to air “Glee” after the biggest, testosterone-fueled sporting event of the year. And THANK GOD, because I was just bored enough by time “The Sue Sylvester Shuffle” came on to think it was any good… at first.

Fringe Concentrate and Ask Again Olivia Aims to Kill Fringe: Season 3 Episode 12: Concentrate and Ask Again   TV Review

This week’s episode of “Fringe” was entitled “Concentrate and Ask Again” and it was all about mind over bones. The Fringe team set out to find two soldiers turned terrorists who have a “bone to pick” with a politician and a couple scientists. In the process, the FBI gets some help from one of Walter’s former “patients” and several revelations about the case and their personal lives are made. Check out the review…

30 Rock: Season 5 Episode 13: Que Sorpresa! – TV Review

30 Rock Que Sorpresa Tina Fey 30 Rock: Season 5 Episode 13: Que Sorpresa!   TV Review

30 Rock” hasn’t been as consistently entertaining this season as it has in the past, and most of the episodes feel unbalanced. Some jokes are fantastic, others are predictable, and others are just simply not funny. It’s still good comedy television, but “30 Rock” is usually great comedy television, and it hasn’t lived up to its previous four seasons thus far. Sadly, the same can be said about last night’s episode, which was at times hilarious and insightful, and at other times dull and disappointing. Read our review to find out why…

The Office: Season 7 Episode 14: The Search – TV Review

The Office The Search Rainn Wilson The Office: Season 7 Episode 14: The Search   TV Review

A major story arc of “The Office“ that has spanned this season and last arrived exactly where we all knew it was headed tonight, although it felt fairly anticlimactic. Maybe it’s hard to make a moment that everyone foresaw feel poignant, but it’s disappointing to think that something we waited this long for had little effect. Add to that an absence of good jokes, and we can’t say we were too thrilled with this episode. Read our review to find out why…

Community: Season 2 Episode 14: Advanced Dungeons and Dragons – TV Review

community2.14 pierceandmanual 02 03 11 Community: Season 2 Episode 14: Advanced Dungeons and Dragons   TV Review

In an age when seemingly nothing – sex, death, profanity, you name it – is off-limits on TV, there’s one thing that’s remained curiously taboo: Dungeons & Dragons. Aside from a few references in the likes of “Futurama,” “The Simpsons,” and “Buffy: The Vampire Slayer,” the enormously popular tabletop game has been almost totally sidelined on television – perhaps because of its nerd affinity. Well, “Community” is going where no show has gone before with this episode, which revolves (as you may have guessed) around D&D.  Read on to find out the details!

Sanctum: Movie Review

sanctum2 3 11 Sanctum: Movie Review

The heavily marketed “James Cameron Production” Sanctum, directed by the clearly inexperienced Alister Grierson swamps theaters this Friday. It’s safe to assume that most people would interpret Cameron’s E.P. credit as a ringing endorsement of quality cinema. I, however, know it to be Universal’s deceptive maneuver to bait fools to the box office.

My Idiot Brother 27 1 11 kc Sundance 2011: My Idiot Brother   Movie Review

There’s not other way of saying it, with My Idiot Brother mainstream Hollywood has officially hit the streets of Sundance. Despite the fact that I will see Paul Rudd (even when I’m supposed to be looking for the best unknown ____ who is soon to be amazing) in anything and enjoy the entire supporting cast, one can’t help but wonder what this film is doing at an Independent film festival — everything about it seems as mainstream as possible…
