Filming In Brooklyn
A “Nightmare” of a meal at Mojito
This post originally appeared on SelfishMom.com on February 28th, 2010. Back in May of 2009, Kitchen Nightmares – one of my favorite shows – filmed an episode in my neighborhood, at local Cuban restaurant Mojito. It’s never a good sign for a restaurant to make it onto the show, and I...

“Inside joke.” A great line. A provocative line. A dangerous line.

24: Please wake me up when something happens
I don’t have a helluva lot to say after Monday night’s episode except for: What? Did ANYthing happen? Yeah, some guns were drawn and a guy jumped out the window after shooting who he thought was Hairbib Schwartzmann, but, really? That was it? Jack’s leading a bunch of redshirts around, but...

The last two hours of 24 – 11 p.m. to 12 a.m. and 12 a.m. to 1 a.m. – have been both exhiliarating and a crapfest. Don’t get me wrong, there were some fantastic moments in last night’s episode – Jack’s defense of Renee, his Jack Sack adjustment, his being freed...
One of many things I love about Lost is that they are so meticulous about titling their episodes. “The Substitute” works on so many levels. Most obviously, Locke finds his calling, perhaps, as a substitute teacher (I’ll get to Ben later. Yowza!). But then there’s the idea of the substitute Locke on...
Caprica: In Which Joseph Adama Becomes Badass
The most interesting thing, to me, about Reins of a Waterfall, is that we started, finally, to see the Joseph Adama who was hinted at in Battlestar Galactica. Up to this point, the Joseph Adams/Adama we’ve seen in Caprica is a family man. Sure, he’s related to a major crime family,...
Supernatural officially becomes post-apocalyptic
Or something like that. Yes, Supernatural has been picked up for a Season 6. It’s going to be hard to improve on this season (though I admit, I’m a couple episodes behind). It’s no secret that I wouldn’t have been disappointed if this were the last season, purely for story purposes. So long...
