Love seems to be not quite in the air, but definitely troubling a number of residents of Cicely in Love’s Labour Mislaid. Written by Jeff Melvoin, it first debuted on 22 February, 1993. Maggie (Janine Turner) seems to have no memory of having carnal relations with Joel (Rob Morrow) despite the fact that they stood…

Northern Exposure (1993) – Learning Curve, and Ill Wind
Marilyn (Elaine Miles) prepares for a vacation to Seattle, though Joel (Rob Morrow) isn’t sure she should travel on her own. But that’s just the beginning of things for this episode. Joel is mothering her from the get-go, trying to make sure she has everything she needs for a safe trip, but Marilyn insists she…
TIFF ’23: The Burial
I think every actor wants to do a courtroom drama, to voice their objections, to thunder at a witness during cross-examination, to let that look play across their face that suggests they may have just found a way to win the case. Then, when you throw in the fact that the case you’re bringing to…
Fan Expo 2019
Somehow just like that, Fan Expo, in its 25th year is over. Packed with a plethora of guests the four day event was filled with fans, booths, collectibles, tees, and a fandom moment for everyone. I was totally eager to see how things played out this year, spending time with friends new and old, and…
Carrie (1974) – Stephen King
Stephen King’s first novel is on the book shelf this week. It has literally been decades since I read this one. In fact, I remember exactly where I was when I was reading the climax of the story. It stayed with me. So I was happy to revisit it, and see how much I enjoyed…
Fan Expo 2015
It’s that time of year again, and if you blink… it’s over. And that’s what I realized this morning, just like that Fan Expo is done for another year. Sigh. Still, it was a really enjoyable year as Sue, Lindsay and I dove into geekdom, and chatted with a number of great people, saw some…
Veep: Season 3
Also available from HBO today, is the third season of their critically acclaimed, and award-winning White House comedy series, Veep. Julia Loius-Drefus, who has won an Emmy for her performance in each season, is Vice President Selina Meyer. And considering my love of the Sorkin series The West Wing, I should have been watching…
Philadelphia (1993) – Jonathan Demme
The next title following my screening of On the Waterfront for the Great Movies – 100 Years of Film book is this classic drama that features the combined star power of Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. I hadn’t seen this one since it was in the theater, and I was eager to have another…
Carrie (1976)
Brian DePalma’s classic from 1976 finds its way onto the 101 Horror Movies and I was more than happy to revisit it. I watched it a long time ago when I was a teenager going through my Stephen King phase, which every teen seems to go through (Salem’s Lot is still my favorite King book)….
