“I Love Lucy”, “Gunsmoke”, “Laugh In”, “All in the Family”, “Dallas”, “Dynasty”, “The Cosby Show”, “Seinfeld”, “Everybody Loves Raymond.” This is just a partial list of television shows that dominated the ratings and defined greatness. If you watched television (shame on you “elitists” who don’t) when these programs came on, you made it your [...]

Grey’s Anatomy has hit its stride and got its groove back! I’m a big fan of the show. We all know this.
I’m back! I’ve been on an “extended” holiday break and I’m anxious to catch up!
The number 1 show on television is back for season eight. For everyone who thought American Idol was losing its “mojo”, falling off or just gotten old, if the first four hours are any indication, think again. The premiere episodes generated the kind of excitement, passion and empathy I haven’t felt since season one. I’m [...]

Remember the Los Angeles riot that erupted after the Rodney King verdict? I remember it like it was yesterday. I don’t want to look back to examine the underlying causes. I want to look back at how the television coverage played an unexpected roll. It helped law enforcement and prosecutors identify dozens if [...]
This is it. My final blog before America elects a new president. No matter what the outcome is on Tuesday, it has been an extraordinary experience to share this historic election process with all of you here at UTC.
Huge early voting suggests the excitement generated by this election and the speculation of massive [...]
With less than two weeks to the election and all the debates over I can FINALLY catch up on a few things entertaining (or not) this fall. Let’s get started!
I could not wait for Grey’s Anatomy to come back. It’s one of my favorite hour dramas where the off screen drama is sometimes equal to, [...]
