Gossip Girl – Now THAT’S a Thanksgiving dinner table
First, lets get it out of the way. Yes, I am a hetrosexual male, and yes I’m going to be helping to cover Gossip Girl. I could defend my decidedly non-demographic show choice by talking about the hotness that is Blake Lively and Leighton Messter, but honestly, I think Gossip Girl is a ...

The Amazing Race – All good deeds deserve a brother
Of the four remaining teams coming into this week’s installment, I had two that I could confidently support, one that’s really been disappointing me of late, and one that’s been playing a bit of a nasty game the whole time. As I was going to bed last night, I started to ...

CliqueClack TV’s 2009 guide to holiday TV programming
Well, the holiday season is upon us. You know this by the broken femur you’re nursing from being trampled in Best Buy while racing for that $48 Blu-Ray DVD. Or, the $80 Dora Talking Kitchen that you bought for the kids that they’ll play with for five minutes, break in the next ...

CliqueClack’s guide to the 2009-2010 winter TV season
Did you notice the title said “winter season” and not “mid-season?” That’s due to the changing face of television. In the period known as “Back in the Day,” the period between December and the first few weeks of January were full of reruns. These days, ...

Wilson learns to be more like House, the hard way
“I just had a House moment. I diagnosed transverse myelitis from a cold sore. How cool is that? Patients really eat that crap up.” – Wilson I can’t believe it took six seasons for the powers-that-be to do a Wilson-centric episode! Now that they finally did, it was ...

Heroes – I don’t think I was supposed to be laughing
Alright, I have to apologize if you liked this episode of Heroes , but for me it was an hour of stupid decisions and sappy sentimentality, with each scene a little more ridiculous than the next. I know that we, as a fan base, have been clamoring for a major death for a couple of years ...

Adult Swim in a Box – DVD review
I have yet to come up with any super-great possible explanation as to why [adult swim] decided to release such an odd mish-mash of DVDs for Adult Swim in a Box . Someone online casually suggested that it may have been because there were too many of certain seasons in a warehouse and [as] ...

Ratings Clack – Entering the holiday abyss
It’s that time of the year. Now that we’ve all been spoiled for months with tons of new TV, it’s all going away. Last week we saw the first real evidence of the holiday slowdown as CW just shut down completely and ABC was the only network that even made an effort on ...

Men of a Certain Age – CliqueClack preview
It has been my privilege to have been given the opportunity to preview three episodes of Men of a Certain Age , the new Ray Romano series on TNT. Believe me when I say that I’m not one to gush, but a privilege it has been. I’m really proud of and impressed with Romano for the job he’s done ...

Lost in Lost – Groundhog Day
Last week I talked about the start date of Lost’s final season: February 2, 2010. I failed to notice (shame on me) that this date also holds some additional meaning. Yes, it’s Groundhog Day. At first I didn’t even realize that the two dates coincided, but even if I had, ...

Now that Black Friday is over: Cyber Monday is here!
cliqueclack.com — For all of you who’ve been holding off on those online purchases for possibly better deals, today... would be the day. “Cyber Monday” is the online version of Black Friday, though since they all seem to participate in that day anyway, I’m not really sure why they bother. ...

Californication – That’s why authors sell autographed copies of their books direct to market
Okay, so this episode was a bit of a miss, a slight incident of falling off the wagon. Not like episodes five and six, which were just subpar, and also kind of inexplicable as far as their existence in the timeline this season. No, this one made sense, and it was the “ Slow Happy Boys ...

Dexter – Trinity’s title turns out inaccurate
As usual with Dexter , things really pick up the pace in the last four-or-so episodes of a season. And, as usual, it makes me nervous as hell. It’s when Dexter gets crazy focused on what he’s set out to do that it looks like he could easily slip up and make mistakes. When ...

Quotation Marks – Beefcake calendars, threesomes, and large breasts … making the Puritans proud
Dreams came true for a lot of people this week. Seinfeld staged a reunion show on the season finale of Larry David’s Curb , Martha Castle is set to meet a calendar’s worth of firefighters, Ted and Robin were gifted a slap, and Cam got to dress up like a clown. Unfortunately for billions of ...

Boy is White Collar’s Neal one trusting conman
I was reading something about White Collar recently that seemed to echo exactly what I’d been thinking about the show for the last week or two. Great leading character camaraderie, but where are the scintillating crime stories that we’ve come to expect after the first episode or two? But ...

If this is Ugly Betty’s final season, who should Betty end up with?
According to E! Online , the writers of Ugly Betty are debating who to pair Betty with at the end of the series . Henry, Gio, and Daniel were mentioned as possibilities. Last night, the writers teased us with a kiss between Betty and Daniel (who admittedly thought she was Molly). ...

Monday night’s fathers and daughters
I’m a sucker for a good father/daughter relationship. That dynamic was a part of some of my all time favorite shows: It was a critical piece of Veronica Mars , was a interesting part of Battlestar Galactica (Adama and Starbuck), and even The West Wing (Bartlett and ...
