Note: I’m on vacation this week. While I’m gone, I’ve set up a week of discussion posts revisiting the Lost finale in time for the Lost series DVD set, out Aug. 24. In other words, this is a recording; you cannot press 0 to speak to a real live person.
Upon learning that Jack was the Candidate who ended up succeeding Jacob, Locke told …
I’m hardly the first to take notice of this (at least 370,000 others have beat me to the punch), but I promise you I am one of the few to actually listen to the radio show before ever seeing this accompanying video. I will explain it all in a moment, but first behold: Possibly the best short film I have ever seen on YouTube. Its title: …
Some television shows – hell, entire television networks – are built around the close-up of the jaw-dropping train wreck. Tales of voyeuristic catharsis, where us viewers can take a collective deep breath and thank the heavens that, no matter how bad things get, at least we don’t have it that bad.
I’m talking about the I …

Cee-Lo Green’s hit “F___ You” is more pleasant than its name suggests. Still, he isn’t happy about a love gone bad. TIME looks at angry tunes about sour relationships.
I know Tuned In is usually a place on Wednesdays to read all about Top Chef – a show that I used to be obsessed with. But in recent weeks, as the cooking competition has skewed more extreme and predictable, another show has risen up to dominate not just the 10 p.m. hour on Wednesdays, but the weekly slate of reality TV contenders. …
Back in January, when the whole Jay Leno Show-Tonight Show controvery was blowing up, David Letterman made something of a short-term fortune in bashing Jay Leno and the suits over at NBC.
Well, I missed this yesterday, but Letterman came back from vacation on Monday night, and seems to have rekindled the anger at his old comedy …

After Desmond descends into the pit in the Lost finale, “The End,” we see Smokey (in …
It’s not every day that a disgraced former governor who’s been convicted of lying to the FBI goes on primetime television to chat about the trial.

Note: This is less an episode summary than a larger discussion of the series’ surprising change in direction.
Oh Entourage, how you confound me. I’ve rarely had such an emotionally turbulent relationship with a TV series – alternating between apathy and sympathy, between eye-rolls and gasps. What once was a great show about a …
Before reading this post, enjoy dinner and a show at a Benihana restaurant, then watch last night’s Mad Men.
