Fox had planned a live presentation of the musical "Rent" tonight, but as a main castmember broke an ankle during the dress rehearsal last night, they are instead airing a combination which will be mostly the recording of the dress rehearsal...
Rarely does a 6 part miniseries generate as much social media and network buzz as this multi-part series from Lifetime. This series does a pretty incredible job discussing really difficult subject matter, and makes an unbelievable case against Robert Kelly, the R&B Singer/Songwriter.

Good lord. I have no idea what the heck I just watched kind of; but depending on your options it can seemingly keep going.. I thought I reached an end several times but resets and whole new storylines and .. good lord.
This is definitely some innovative programming. Unsure what I think yet...
So, we are in the middle of a series of music biopics, which come up frequently. Ray was a huge success; the Doors even before that. Music biopics are always popular.
Here is something I was thinking about recently last night with someone else. With high profile artists of course getting...

SiriusXM is acquiring Pandora for $3.5 billion. The satellite radio company says it intends to maintain the Pandora service and brand, along with its roughly 70 million monthly active users (5.6 million of...
I enjoyed this far, far more than I anticipated. The script on this worked.. reminded me a lot of everything I liked about "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind".. I'm in.

Beautiful. While I carry both the PS4 and the XBOX One in the house, I have to admit, the exclusives on PS4 have just killed the XBOX One exclusives. God of War is a masterpiece; it may not oust Last of Us for me, but between this, Horizon Zero Dawn, Last of Us.. lord.
With the back to back success of La La Land and Greatest Showman, maybe now is a decent time to think about Broadway musicals that could become feature films. Ones that come to mind:
Book of Mormon
Wicked
Hamilton
Dear Evan Hansen
In The Heights
Avenue Q
This docuseries has to be one of the most compelling things I've seen on Netflix in a while. I was only somewhat aware of this story, but damn is this well told and truly engrossing. The slow spiral into madness is wow.
We are 3 episodes into Shameless Season 8 and I realized no series thread yet; the show continues to run with some great performances, but this season following the death of Monica, we're starting to see some real character growth going on here.
So, this was a book that we read through with the kids over the summer and quite enjoyed. While everyone may be amped up for Justice League, I'm hopeful this film captures the spirit of the book.
This seems like such a no brainer, but I literally cannot find one that is in the sub $700 category. My kid's room has a PS4/XB1/TV, and so I need something that could switch between three HDMI sources. I hate having the TV do this and ARC it back to the device, which means the kids are...
It is pretty bold to take out an entire episode to explain black history, but Blackish took it on in the first episode, and killed it.
Fantastic block of TV, and really surprised me how blunt and really well done the season premiere was.
This film will be dismissed quickly as a "women can be raunchy too.." genre, but here is the thing: when it works, this is a film that had more genuine ridiculous laughs in it for me than any other comedy I can think of this year. Yes, there are a lot of crude and over the top jokes, but in...
Interesting core concept that never fully develops, veers wildy, wildly off track in the middle.. and the ending makes absolutely no sense given the structure of the rest of the film.
This is a film that wants to take on a big issue, and the end conclusion is exactly the reverse of the...
One of my favorite books leaps to an eight episode season, and I have to say the first night truly exceptional TV. McShane is in top form as Wednesday and the setup was great. This is a very strong realization of the things I loved about the book.
This sequel to The Good Wife has been better than I expected. The first episode was good, but the most recent - episode 3 - is really in the spirit of what made the Good Wife thoughtful TV.
I'm digging the characters and the storytelling itself is quite solid. If it keeps going this way, I'm...
