As the Day She Was Born | TV Show Recaps | 4/18/2008
While much of the focus tonight was on Neela, it seemed like almost everyone at County was dealing with some sort of personal or professional crisis. Let’s start with Neela walking around the ER naked. No great surprise that this was a dream that reflected her own insecurities about her birthday, her decisions and her life in general. Unfortunately, both Harold and Tony were on the receiving end of her bad day. When Harold came clean about his decision to change specialties, Neela went straight from surprised to unsupportive to downright bullying the poor kid. Next up for a haranguing was Tony. While she did make some valid points about his tendency to jump from relationship to relationship, she was pretty tough on him and somewhat hypocritical given her personal track record with men. I loved that Dubenko was the one who set her straight in the end, reminding her of the unique talents she possesses and offering the saddest (and most inedible) birthday confection I've ever seen... read more
Pilot News: Six Feet Under's Mom Joins Journal | Today's News: Our Take | 4/14/2008
Frances Conroy has been tapped to join CBS' Mike Birbiglia's Secret Public Journal.The new CBS comedy is based on comedian Mike Birbiglia's weekly life-chronicling blog of the same name. The sitcom will star Birbiglia as — you guessed it — an immature stand-up comedian living with his girlfriend in Brooklyn.

"Coming Home" | TV Show Recaps | 11/16/2007
I don’t know about all of you, but as tonight’s episode started, I was still reeling from last week’s gut-wrenching exploration of Abby’s dark night of the soul. So, when I saw Luka come around that corner, I practically cried tears of joy. But my happiness, like Abby’s, was short-lived as it became obvious that the repercussions of her drunken mistake have yet to fully play out. I agree with those of you who continue to post about Maura Tierney’s amazing, consistently compelling performance. After watching her give another bravura turn tonight (under the direction of ER vet Laura Innes) I have to say that it would be criminal for her to be overlooked again come awards time. Unfortunately, it seems that the show’s buzz-worthiness has long since worn off, a fact that keeps it off the radar of most Emmy voters. (Though, it should be noted, guest stars are regularly rewarded for their ER efforts, so it appears someone is taking notice.) Back to the ac... read more
Movie News: Rock's New Role | Today's News: Our Take | 11/6/2007
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has confirmed for SCI FI Wire that in the upcoming Shazam! movie, he's going to play the villainous Black Adam rather than the heroic Captain Marvel because that's what fans told him they wanted him to do. I had no idea you guys were so powerful. Can you please make sure there won't be a "Game Plan 2"? Please?.... Jennifer Connelly has signed on to star opposite Keanu Reeves in a remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still.... Jeanne Tripplehorn has landed the part of Jackie O in the Drew Barrymore/Jessica Lange adaptation of the docu-turned-Broadway hit Grey Gardens....
