As these things go, reading a book about the big individual creative forces in television history has me thinking about contemporary writer/producers.

Aimless Prognosticating: Predicting the Television Golden Globe Awards, Lead Categories
I feel like I probably know the answer to the primary question of this post. We all know that the Golden Globe Awards are a crock, especially when in reference to television.

TV Surveillance’s Best of 2010: The 25 Best Series, 10-1
2010 has been a fantastic year for television. This year brought us a slew of great new programs and if we include the second halves of all the series that debuted in the fall of 2009 (which I am for these features), we have probably just experienced the best run of newbies since 2004. While […]

Season Finale — Mad Men, “Tomorrowland”
As someone who is coming to the Mad Men finale “Tomorrowland” criticism late, I feel as if there might not be a whole lot of value in me spewing thousands and thousands of words with my interpretations when there are so many great writers who have done an exceptional job since 11 p.m. last night.
