• Gordon Ramsays Cookalong was half fun, half terrible

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  This was not what I was expecting. I dont think Ive ever been as confused by a TV show while I was actually watching it. Maybe because Gordon Ramsays Cookalong was live or maybe it was because Chef Gordon Ramsay had to move at such a frantic pace to get everything done in an hour. Whatever the reason, I found ...

• Review: Scrubs - Our Histories

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S09E04) It was good to see an episode that had a bit more of a balance between the old and the new. Yes, we concentrated a lot on the J.D./Turk "Bro-a-Palooza" and Teds departure from Sacred Heart. But we also got a fair amount of the students working together. Do Lucy and Cole still need a little bit more of a ...

• Review: Better Off Ted - The Lawyer, The Lemur, and The Listener

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S02E02) Most people have trouble separating their work life from their life life. But if youre employed by Veridian Dynamics, your work life is your life life. Always and forever. So, like Linda in this episode, forget about writing that childrens book youve been talking about for years, because the company owns ...

• Review: NCIS - Faith

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S07E10) NCIS Christmas. Is that an oxymoron? No, not really, although the death of a Muslim Marine is a bit of a downer. Presumably they had to have some case for the crew to work on, but all things considered, it wasnt much of a mystery and the show could have been just as good without it. The real crux of the ...

• Review: So You Think You Can Dance - Top 6 Perform

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S06E23) For the first time in the history of So You Think You Can Dance , we have six dancers in the final performance show, which makes it even more unpredictable. It was a great night of dancing, but Im not even going to venture a guess as to who might win, as a strong case could be made for at least five of ...

  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  ( S02E10 ) "...everybody does it because it feels all right, and its more polite, but a lies still a lie even when its white..." - Loker With the fall TV season slowly winding down, it was a pleasant surprise when Fox announced that Lie To Me s fall finale would air practically halfway into December. Now that the ...

• Review: The Closer - Make Over

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S05E14) "Hello, Beau Bridges? Yes, this is The Closer calling. Would you like an Emmy nomination? You would... Okay, were sending you the script now." Perhaps it didnt happen exactly that way, but here was a show in which a gifted actor was presented a wonderful opportunity and he rose to the occasion. The ...

• Review: Men of a Certain Age - Let It Go

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S01E02) Theres a possibility that Men of a Certain Age could become grumpy old men of a certain age. But I dont think thats going to happen because theres still enough irony and levity to keep the show from wallowing into a miserable experience. These guys arent grumpy all the time and when they are, it feels ...

• Review: Two and a Half Men - Warning. Its Dirty.

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S07E11) The holidays are a time for family and reflection and cheer. Unless youre the Harper family and gathering in Malibu becomes a test to see who can screw up each others life more. This was an interesting Christmas get together, especially with the guest visit from Marty Pepper, sitcom king. Was it the ultimate ...

• Review: The Big Bang Theory - The Maternal Convergence

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S03E11) Christine Baranski is back! I loved this episode, but it was way too short. It was so fast-paced, that it seemed like it was over before it even got started. They really picked up where they left off the last time she guest-starred . In that episode; they established how she and Sheldon were basically the ...

• Review: How I Met Your Mother - Last Cigarette Ever

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S05E11) You know you have a good episode going when Harvey Fierstein is cast as one of the female characters "smoking voices," and thats only the third funniest thing that week. Sure, it was great to hear Harveys painful-sounding voice coming out Alyson Hannigans mouth after a few days of smoking. It seems like it ...

  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S03E12) "Thats the thing about secrets, Hank. They have a funny way of coming out." - Mia Cross If last nights episode was the first episode of Californication you have ever seen, it might have left you more than a little confused. Your friends who gab about it around the office water cooler have always been ...

• Review: The Venture Bros. - Pinstripes & Poltergeists (mid-season finale)

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S04E08) My heart is all aflutter. Talk about ending on a high note ( Venture Bros. will return to finish the season in a few months, Lost -style). Just like "The Better Man," this Doc Hammer-penned episode was the perfect balance of great story and VB s signature comedy. There were so many great moments, quotable ...

• Review: Aqua Teen Hunger Force - A PE Christmas (season premiere)

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  ( S07E01 ) "Larger point: listeners aint gonna know until theyve already paid for the album!" - Shake Those words, spoken by Master Shake, while recording his Christmas album with Meatwad, were intended to be a jab at consumers -- our Christmas album sucks but you wont figure that out until we have your money. On ...

• Review: The Simpsons - O Brother, Where Bart Thou?

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S21E08) The last episode of 2009 also has the distinction of being the 449th episode of The Simpsons . The series will come back Sunday, January 10th for a 450th episode extravaganza, including a one-hour 20th anniversary special. Its certainly a big year for Tracey Ullmans one-time back-up series. The beginning ...

  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S04E12) "How is it that I kill people and feel no regret, but disappointing Rita can make me feel like the scum of the Earth?" - Dexter Morgan I dont care what the issue is, what topic Im discussing, or what area of my life needs improvement. If Jennifer Carpenter, the actress who plays Debra Morgan on Dexter , ...

• Review: Saturday Night Live - Taylor Lautner/Bon Jovi

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S35E09) Hello, Twilight fans. I know youre only here because of your screaming hearts, thudding so hard that every beat is a case for internal bruising. Im going to be upfront: I dont like Twilight . I tried reading it before it was a "thing" because my friends recommended it to me and I found myself struggling ...

• Review: Dollhouse - A Love Supreme

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S02E08) We get double the guest stars in this episode with both Alan Tudyk returning as Alpha and Patton Oswalt returning as Joey Miner. Did anybody else notice that Alpha seemed to be acting just like the Joker, particularly with the mismatched purple ensemble? Im referring more to the Heath Ledger version than the ...

• Review: Dollhouse - Meet Jane Doe

  
  TV Squad — Authority: 702
  (S02E07) What we seem to have here is a case of sides being taken. Ballard and Langton, along with Echo, are taking the anti-Dollhouse side while Adelle is joining Mr. Harding in the pro-Dollhouse category. The concept of skipping some time is always an interesting device to use in a drama. Who can forget the ...

Ill have 50 milligrams please." - Walter More Walterisms like the one above, as well as a few reveals and a nice cliff-hanger into the second part of this season, which picks up January 14.
