Stars: Malin Ackerman, Lake Bell, Rob Coddry, Erinn Hayes, Rob Huebel, Ken Marino, Megan Mullally, Henry Winkler Writer: Rob Coddry Director: Rob Schrab Network: Adult Swim, airs Thursday nights Original Telecast: June 2, 2011 Who would have figured an internet only show could find a home on cable television – but end up being funnier and better than a majority of network TV comedies. That’s the case of CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL. Created and starring Rob Coddry as surgeon Blake Downs who likes to wear clown make-up to be more comforting to his young patients (even though it’s more terrifying than relaxing), […]Read On »

TV Review: LOVE BITES – Series Premiere

Stars: Greg Grunberg, Constance Zimmer Writer: Cindy Chupack Director: Marc Buckland Network: NBC, airs Thursday nights Original Telecast: June 2, 2011 The good news, the person who greenlit the new NBC anthology romantic comedy series has long since been fired and a new regime is in place. The bad news, I still had to sit through one of the worst hours of television that I will never get back. LOVE BITES has an unfortunate name, because it’s easy to sum up the show in one easy work. It bites. And it bites hard. The idea of a romantic anthology isn’t […]Read On »

CD Review: Peter Case – THE CASE FILES

By CARL CORTEZ 06/02/2011
Peter Case - THE CASE FILES | ©2011 Alive Records

Distributor: Alive Records Suggested Retail Price: $13.53 It’s hard to review a compilation of demos, outtakes, live tracks and other rarities from a particular artist, because often times that material was never intended for consumer release. Yet, when a solo artist reaches three decades mark, it is time to start digging into the archives for the die-hard fans and Peter Case has done that with THE CASE FILES. While his material from the days as frontman of the short-lived 1980s rock outfit The Plimsouls was angst filled rock and roll the entire way, Case has spent the majority of his […]Read On »

ASSIGNMENT X recently got a few moments alone with Syfy Channel’s President of Original Programming Mark Stern to ask him about a few Syfy series, namely SANCTUARY, EUREKA and WAREHOUSE 13, plus the much-discussed THREE INCHES pilot. Here’s what he had to say. ASSIGNMENT X: SANCTUARY just started up the second half of its third season. Is that on track for perhaps another season, or are you looking at how Season Four does? MARK STERN: They’re working on this [fourth] season, they just started, so we’re really early. We’re just starting to get that first batch of scripts together. AX: […]Read On »

TV Review: SOUTH PARK – Season 15 – “City Sushi”

By CARL CORTEZ
Butters in SOUTH PARK - Season 15 - "City Sushi" | ©2011 Comedy Central

Writer: Trey Parker Director: Trey Parker Network: Comedy Central, airs Wednesday nights Original Telecast: June 1, 2011 Yes! SOUTH PARK finally emerges from its slump with the very funny Butters-centric episode “City Sushi.” After last week’s dreadful “Crack Baby Athletics Association”, the series finds a way to redeem itself in a big way putting the focus on Butters which always seems to provide ample laughs. Butters is one of the few innocent characters in the city of SOUTH PARK, so when he gets involved in strange predicaments (the pimp episode anyone?), it usually provides something refreshingly different. This time, Butters […]Read On »

Exclusive Interview: Scott Bakula discusses MEN OF A CERTAIN AGE

TNT’s series MEN OF A CERTAIN AGE returns for the second part of its second season tonight. The well-regarded comedy/drama concerns a trio of lifelong friends – series co-creator Ray Romano’s divorced Joe Tranelli, Andre Braugher’s stressed family man and car dealership owner Owen Thoreaux Jr. and Scott Bakuka’s less than successful actor Terry Elliott – who are wading through the treacherous waters of life’s middle years together. In addition to having a strong stage career, Bakula is something of a science-fiction/horror icon, given his years on QUANTUM LEAP and STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE, his lead role in Clive Barker’s film […]Read On »

TV Review: FRANKLIN & BASH – Season 1 – “Pilot”

Stars: Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Breckin Meyer, Malcolm McDowell, Claire Coffee, Garcelle Beauvais, Kumail Nanjani, Dana Davis, Reed Diamond Writers: Bill Chais & Kevin Falls Director: Jason Ensler Network: TNT, Wednesdays @ 9 PM Airdate: June 1, 2011 There’s no law saying that legal dramas have to be (insert LAW & ORDER’s signature chong-chong sound here) dead serious. The annals of television are full of courtroom jesters, from the days of NIGHT COURT to the much of the canon of David E. Kelley. So there shouldn’t be a problem with FRANKLIN & BASH, TNT’s new hour-long buddy lawyer show, trying to add […]Read On »

TV Review: THE VOICE – Season 1- “Battles, Part 4”

Network: NBC, airs Tuesday nights Original Telecast: May 31, 2011 When THE VOICE premiered last month, it quickly proved to be one of NBC’s surprise breakout hits. It’s a reality music competition in the vein of AMERICAN IDOL, but the twist is, the “coaches” picked their favorites with the backs turned to the contestants. They were judging them on talent, not by how they looked. It was a great idea, and with strong coaches like Cee Lo Green, Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton and Adam Levine (of Maroon 5), it lended some fresh voices and some current pop validity to the […]Read On »

TV Review: AMERICA’S GOT TALENT – Season 6 premiere – “Audition Show #1”

Network: NBC, airs Tuesday nights Original Telecast: May 31, 2011 It’s Season six of the glorified THE GONG SHOW now called AMERICA’S GOT TALENT and it hasn’t gotten any better from the first time I watched it five seasons ago. It still is painfully droll and boring. Most of the “so called” talent is lame and, just like AMERICAN IDOL, simply there for shock purposes in these early audition rounds  – in other words it’s so bad it’s good. The only problem – you have to find this kind of TV programming to find this kind of a train wreck […]Read On »
