Susannah and I have been kicking back at the Emmys for a good long time now. We’ve wept. We’ve wailed. We’ve gnashed our teeth. Personally, I’ve worn sackcloth and ashes, but that’s just my general fashion aesthetic.

A number of showrunners have already gone back work, making plans for the remainder of the season and scrambling to figure out how many episodes they [...]

Squee! It’s Melinda Clarke tonight on Reaper! She’s not just Julie Cooper (The O.C.). She’s not just Nandi, the hooker with the “Heart of Gold”and eyes for Mal on Firefly. She’s not just Lady Heather (CSI: Original Flavor, and yes, I am snickering now). Now she’s the devil’s girlfriend. They just don’t come much cooler [...]

Squee! It’s Mercedes McNab on Supernatural tonight! This is the second undead character she’s appeared as in the last 10 days, as she was a soul escaped from Hell on Reaper last week (a soul escaped from Hell who had way too much affection for “Radar Love,” in fact). It’s also the second vampire she’s [...]
