MEAN and MASSIVE

AMC has announced that it renews Kevin Smith’ Comic Book Men and Talking Dead, a talk show for The Walking Dead (which returns for season 3, so there’s enough stuff to discuss). Our Comic Man Smith says in response: Pinch my fat ass, ’cause I must be dreaming! A thousand thank you’s wouldn’t cover the [...]

SEB: hbo girls s01e05 episode trailer, preview I gave you the episode’s plot summary a couple of days back (together with my episode recap of Hannah’s Diary), before HBO has released the weekly promo for Girls. The next episode, Hard Being Easy (love the title!) continues where we last left the girls – dealing with [...]

SEB: hbo girls s01e04 episode review Just by its name it was clear that this episode of Girls, Hannah’s Diary,  is going to start a snow ball that will go down until it will crash on the head of Hannah and her friends. Charlie didn’t mean to read Hannah’s journal, it was his friend who started [...]

SEB: mad men s05e08 episode review The power of Mad Men is the ability to go into dark places but stay amusing. Lady Lazarus, as dark and disturbing this episode was, was also one of the funniest this season yet. It says something about advertisement, I guess. Even when life looks like baked beans, it [...]

SEB: mad men s05e08 episode promo What does Magen really want? Ist it a quieter life with Don, or a new carrer path for herself? If you’ve watched last week’s episode of Mad Men, you remember what her father has told her (“you’ve given up”). A girl never forgets such a sentence from her father. [...]

SEB: s01e03 episode review It just keep getting better. Girls, I mean, not the lives of its characters. Hannah is getting some “news about her vagina” from her gynecologist, which sends her on a (very short and funny) journey through her present and past boyfriends: Adam and Elijah. And the best part of Hannah’s plot [...]

SEB: mad men s04e06 episode review Last night on Mad Men, we had a chance to see things from a different perspective. Peggy saw things from a different perspective after the new writer told her he was born in a concentration camp. Even Beans didn’t affect her this way. And Roger went into an LCD [...]

SEB: breaking bad season 5 interview Bill Burr, who plays Saul Goodman’s assistant on Breaking Bad (one of the last people to see Ted Beneke alive, if you remember that wonderful scene) – did a short Q&A for AMC. No spoilers about the new season of the show, but here’s what he had to say [...]

SEB: breaking bad s04e12 I was having a party the other day, and was quite excited to find out my neighbor was following Breaking Bad too. She was however pretty surprised to discover season 4 was not the last season (she actually thought that last week’s episode, Space Crawl, was the series finale). I guess [...]

SEB: breaking bad s04e11 Things are totally edgy now on Breaking Bad, with Walter making every possible mistake and Jesse keep acting like a real hero. Gus finally said the words (“I will kill your infant daughter”, said in that unique accent of Gus, is pretty creepy.) In many ways this episode of Breaking Bad [...]

SEB: breaking bad s04e10 review A lot was happening in Salud, and again I must say it was perhaps the best episode of the season. But I say this too often, so maybe I should wait three more episodes to decide which was the strongest episode of this excellent fourth season. Watch next week’s episode [...]

SEB: breaking bad s04e08 Hermanos, the eighth episode in the current season of Breaking Bad, tought us a few things. The main character was the Chicken Man (and that little tick he had in the elevator made me think of his nickname in a different way) – but we also got a few interesting bits [...]

SEB: breaking bad s04e05 Things are getting tense on Breaking Bad, and while Walter and Skyler are getting closer again, Jesse finds a new best friend. Shotgun was another fantastic episode in a fantastic season. Some style themes that we already know, some jokes we already heard – but the dangers are new, and the [...]

SEB: breaking bad s04e03 I knew it will be hard, but I didn’t imagine it would be such an agony. I watched the first three seasons of Breaking Bad as a marathon, a pretty quick one in a matter of fact. I watched 2-3 episodes at once, sometimes even more. The fourth season started and [...]

America’s Got Talent is almost done with weeding through it’s top 48, and on last night’s result show, four more acts booked their place in the semi-finals, and it is fair to share that singers ruled the day. First to be called to the stage were Ian Johnson (Yo-Yo performer), Summerwind Skippers (Jump Rope Acrobatic [...]

SEB: wilfred fx s01e05 “Let’s get stoned and go home and get stoned” – Wilfred A late review of this weeek’s episode of Wilfred, Respect. Ryan and Wilfred finding their way to a hospice, and somehow they even succeed with the old (especially when they die). A special guest star was Rashida Jones, who plays [...]

Here’s another quick post before I delve into that Comic Con super-post. During the packed True Blood panel, the new trailer for the series fourth season was screened. It’s a trailer that shows us a lot of what will happen in the rest of the season – so if you’re not in the mood for [...]

So the sixth season of America’s Got Talent is now in full swing and last night on NBC, we discovered the next four acts to make it through to the semi finals stage of the competition and still be in with a chance of winning the $1 million prize and the chance to headline a [...]

SEB: weeds s07e04 Weeds returns tonight with the fourth episode in its last season. A Hole in Her Niqab brings Nancy to an office job, but it’s only a cover. But, maybe not such a good one. Andy is still in relationship with the artist, who almost killed Silas in last week’s episode. Well, it’s [...]

SEB: curb s08e02 So who would be your suicide call? Curb Your Enthusiasm season 8 continues to be funny as hell. Who needs Seinfeld when you have this? For a second it felt like college humor, with Larry and the guys (the recently devorced friend) talking about tits and asses. At the end they went [...]
