Hello Hulu: Free Online TV & Movies

Friday, March 14th, 2008

In the world of online video Hulu is the new kid on the internet block. The name Hulu is funky ’cause I keep wanting to say Hula, like the Hawaiian dance. Maybe the domain was taken, but considering this new website that allows visitors to watch full length movies and TV shows is [...]

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

What did we learn in this Juliet flashback “Lost” episode? Quite a lot actually. The first thing? Ben is one sick puppy…as in sick puppy love. Or maybe twisted, sick puppy love.

My Favorite TV Critics

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

When it comes to TV or movie critics, I’m like I am with every other media: very particular about who I trust.

Have you heard that Robert Irvine, the host of the Food Network’s “Dinner Impossible” is getting food processed right out the front door?

“Lost” Snap Recap: “The Constant” (2/28/08)

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

Okay, so we always knew Desmond had some special powers. Like knowing that Claire would almost get struck by lightening, that Charlie would die, but this was something totally different. We didn’t get flashbacks or flashes forward. What we got was Desmond psychically flashing through time. By the time this episode [...]
