Dreaming With the Television On

He waited until the opportune moment to step out of the bright blue box, cautiously examining the surrounding thingamabobs and thingamajigs, before extracting the sonic screwdriver from his top left pocket. The mechanism was his favorite little watchamacallit and proved to be the most reliable. At least, most of the time. Curiously, it seemed to…

TV Rewind: The Vampire Diaries – “Graduation”

Hard to Say Goodbye My Love Honestly, I woke up yesterday morning prepared to breakup with TVD. Now, I’m not so sure. I’ll admit, last night’s season finale was far from extraordinary, but it did remind me of why I loved the show in the first place. It had one of my favorite Klaus moments….

Trailer Talk: The World’s End

The Piano Man is a legend around these parts; a lyrical genius in the eyes of many. Still, we remained profoundly hopefully when the announcement was made…

TV Rewind: The Vampire Diaries – “She’s Come Undone”

The Girl That I Loved What can I say? My apologies for the delay. It was a long, very tiring weekend. Damon and Stefan barely let me get any sleep the entire time. They wouldn’t stop! They just kept going and going. I’m exhausted. They’ve got some mad skills, though. Luckily, I’m a tough cookie….
