Yeah, it struck me as a bit weird, too. I mean, Tom Hanks can ham it up like a pro, but he's gonna be hard-pressed to keep up with the comic genius of Tim Allen.

I think I remember reading something about him on Deadline - pretty sure it was a pilot for USA. Whatever it is, hopefully they wont let his talent go to waste.

The ratings that are reported include (as I understand it, which might be not at all) the usual data from Nielsen homes plus data from people that watch shows using DVRs on the same day the episode aired - it's called Live + Same Day. Ratings data is also provided for Live + 3 and Live + 7 (DVR use after 3 days and 7…

I can see They Might Be Giants doing something with it

@santos Rovi is the company that owns AMG now. Nevertheless, AllRovi remains a really stupid name.

"Gravity was on Starz." Well, I suppose that's a fair point…

Eric Balfour
Quite possibly one of my least favorite actors. It was such a huge relief when I started watching Buffy to see him dusted immediately, because if I had to put up with his smarmy shit for much longer I probably would have quit the show. Anyone else watch the pilot of SyFy's 'Haven'? Well I did, and it…

"it's hard to think of a show on Showtime that doesn't get renewed for a second season"

Under the Red Hood was solid, and I've been meaning to get to New Frontier for a while now, so maybe I'll give that a shot next. I haven't really seen anything lately from the DCAU that's blown me away (like say, Mask of the Phantasm did), but they do always do fine work.

Pocketful of Sunshine is now pretty much the musical epitome of infectious thanks to Easy A. If anyone starts humming that god damn chorus…Shit…

If Space Jam is wrong, then I don't wanna be right

The gritty Fat Albert reboot, however, will be pretty fucking epic.

Are they keeping the theme song? Because if they get rid of that…ah, fuck it, I really couldn't give a shit

By the power of Greyskull!

I don't know if anyone has pointed this out yet, but it's pretty fucking hilarious that "Hell's Bells" was the most Emmy-nominated episode of the entire series, garnering three nominations for Outstanding Hairstyling and Outstanding Makeup (prosthetic and non-prosthetic). So everyone who hated it, just think about…

Alright, Gordon, that was pretty damn good

Treme will probably really test your patience, but it sort of pays off in the end. It also helps if you get a lot out of long jazz performances.

This is Pulitzer shit right here.

Rance Howard has been in every TV show ever created. True fact.

Mumford & Sons
I think Koski pretty much captured how I feel about them: the music is essentially a somewhat watered-down, safer version of folk/indie-rock, but damn if they don't have some catchy songs. "The Cave" and "Little Lion Man" are, unfortunately, the only ones that really stand out from their album, but the…
