You can’t go wrong with any DVD from the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse series. Minnie’s Bow-tique is no exception.

Ratings really rule everything in the TV world. Just ask the Lifetime Network. Their most watched show is Army Wives. They even went ahead and gave a fourth season before the third season even premiered. It doesn’t matter if the ratings have declined for that show ever since the first season; Army Wives is still [...]

In late 1992, a dog named Buddy made headlines after appearing on America’s Funniest Home Videos and The Late Show with David Letterman. Buddy could do amazing things like shoot a basketball into the net with his nose. That lead to a 1997 Disney film called Air Bud. It became an instant success, so you know the mindset of Disney these days, why not create a sequel? They did just that a year later with Air Bud: Golden Receiver.

Gary Unmarried is an underrated comedy that most people probably don’t know about. If the show didn’t have a laugh track and wasn’t on CBS, it probably would get more respect.

Anthology films hardly ever become a hit with large audiences. Critics and hardcore movie fans are probably the only ones who see them during their original theatrical runs. The majority of movie watchers, however, could care less about them. They often feel too disjointed, and quickly the interest of the [...]

We’re almost led to believe that the writers weren’t going to take this show as seriously anymore and make it more fun and interesting. But by the end of the season, though, the same problems from previous seasons came back up.

Season five basically pushes the reset button on the characters of the show, after season four pushed the reset button on the storylines of the show.

The characters are pretty one-dimensional, but some of the monsters and scenes that Dante encounters, though, are quite shocking and surprising.

The Time Traveler’s Wife is filled with too many inconsistencies and plot holes to really believe completely. The most glaring inconsistency is the basic idea of fate and time travel in general.

Nothing here is subtle, which is fine with the action, but not with the chaotic “shaky” camera work and preaching.

Kyle XY is a perfect example of a series that has worn out its welcome. What once was a promising unique new series for the ABC Family has now become like any other teenage drama on that network, among others.

Sports provides a lot of natural drama for many people. On for scripted TV dramas this almost always involves a football (Friday Night Lights) or basketball team (The White Shadow). One sport that has never gotten its own series is gymnastics. Leave it to ABC Family to pick up a [...]

The Peanuts comic strip has been around since 1950, but it never became really popular and groundbreaking until its animated special, A Charlie Brown Christmas. Since then there has been countless specials, but back in 1967, playwright Clark Gesner wanted to take the created works of Charlies Schulz and make a [...]

When you think of edgy television programming, you usually think of shows on HBO or Showtime. Never would you expect a network like ABC Family. But that’s what happened in summer ‘08 when the station debuted The Secret Life of the American Teenager. This series was targeted towards a teenage audience, [...]

Chuck is one of the most underrated shows on television. But because it does a lot of things well, but not one thing great, it flies under the radar.

10 Things I Hate About You may look and feel familiar, but it’s probably the best movie-to-TV translation since M#A#S#H.

Pawn Stars is easily one of the better reality shows to premiere in 2009, and it’s definitely the most entertaining show on The History Channel.

The Accidental Husband attempts to be a different kind of rom-com, but any film that goes straight to DVD with big-name actors involved is doomed from the start.

Jonas is not as annoying as some can be, but that still doesn’t make it the greatest comedy series ever

A more kid-friendly package of Harry Potter, Indiana Jones and Back to the Future.
