Everwood is an amazing television series. I can’t say enough good things about it. It is powerfully written and has amazing actors and performances. I bought Season 1 on DVD as soon as it was released and waited for the other seasons to be released. I waited a long time. It looked like they weren’t…

SOME PEOPLE SEEM TO REALLY LOVE UPPER CASE. I understand using upper case to emphasize a specific word or phrase in a piece of text. Of course, abbreviations and acronyms should also be written in upper case. What I don’t understand is how in children’s programs complete words are often written in upper case letters.…

Tom Green can be hit and miss when it comes to comedy sketches. But when he hits, he really hits. This skit is one of my favourites. I know that I sure can use a laugh in the middle of this week. I know it’s a short week due to the holiday, but I don’t…

Dear Mr. Media, Whoever you are, can you please stop with all the doom and gloom reporting? I am sick and tired of turning on the television to discover the latest thing that threatens my life. First it was Killer Bees, then it was Mad Cow Disease. That was quickly followed by West Nile Virus,…

The season finale of Being Erica was on last night. All I have to say is “Wow!” This show didn’t let me down at all this season. I knew it had potential when I first saw it and I’m glad to say that it lived up to it. You can see my original posting about…

The Internet that I access here in Canada is the same Internet that you access in the United States of America, or Australia, or Sweden, or England. The www in the addresses we type stands for “world wide web. World wide. That’s a great concept. We should be able to connect to anyone, any site,…

I was planning on writing a post this week about the possible demise of Canadian television. Several stations have already cut back on programming. Morning shows have been disappeared and some Canadian community channels have already shut their doors. I think we need to have local broadcasters and television stations. The problem is that some…

The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos is a great program. I like to watch this show whenever I can, but some nights I just can’t stay up that late to watch it. Fortunately they have a really good website where they archive entire shows and popular segments. I was looking forward to March 18th’s show because…
