With House airing its series finale this evening, I thought it was time to bust out a list or two. I love House and I love lists. It seems only fitting. First up, one of the lists I “do best”: ranking the seasons. Obviously, the finale could have some influence on the placement of season … Continue reading Goodbye, House: Ranking the seasons of House

Recent plugs from around the web — Mad Men, House and more
As I think most of you know, this has been an extremely crazy, busy time for me. Content has been sparse around these parts -- something I promise that will change as early as next week -- but I've still been lending my voice to various television-related works over the last few weeks.

Season Premiere review — House, “Twenty Vicodin”
House is pretty much out of ideas at this point. The series spent the majority of last season focusing on the House-Cuddy relationship, a decision that made half the audience swoon and the other half vomit.

Fall Television “Preview”: Four series with problems to solve
With September upon us, the fall television season is just around the corner. At random times over the next few weeks, I’ll be posting some preview-like pieces about what is to come over the next few months.
