Three-star zombies

Nick Offerman in "The Last of Us"

I’m all caught up on “The Last of Us,” television’s latest foray into the zombie-apocalypse genre. Of course I am! With the wife out of town for a few days, it’s time for this grown-ass man to watch whatever the hell he wants.  That means zombies. Longtime readers (there might be one or two) […]

swastika on CSX building in Jacksonville

These damned Nazis. They’re having a moment now in Florida. The other night, when the Jacksonville Jaguars were playing here for a wild-card spot, some cretins thought to project the image of a swastika – entangled with a cross – on a building within view of the stadium.  Yeah, the swastika and the cross. […]

michael landon in bonanza episode the stranger

One of these days I’m going to watch all 431 “Bonanza” episodes in order. I would like to tabulate, for my own edification, how many homicides the Cartwrights were involved in during the course of the series. I’m guessing quite a few.  The other night we were mindlessly scrolling for something to watch and […]

This crime

Maya and Marty

June 8, 2016 by Dave Knadler

I’m not sure why NBC’s “Maya and Marty,” NBC’s latest stab at the timeworn variety-show format, is getting crappy reviews. I’ve watched two episodes now and I’m ready to call it the best thing on network TV. Maya Rudolph and Martin Short are both gifted comics, both at their best when skewering self-absorbed celebrities.

The Liar, the Confessor, and us

January 12, 2013 by Dave Knadler

About Lance Armstrong: If you say you’re going to admit to something at a later date, isn’t that the same thing as admitting it right now? Do you really need to schedule an interview on national television to make it official? I don’t know who’s being more oily here: Armstrong for his weaselly maneuvers […]
