Josh Reviews Orange is the New Black Season One!
A few weeks ago, my wife convinced me that we needed to check out Netflix’s series (that was released over the summer) Orange is the New Black. I am glad she did, because we tore through the series’ thirteen-episode first season in just a little over a week, and I am thr
Josh’s Thoughts on the Pilot Episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.!
Well, this past week the much-hyped premiere episode of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. finally arrived! (That is a lengthy title, and I think for simplicity’s sake I will just be referring to the show as Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. from here on in.) I am excited and intrig
Josh Reviews The Newsroom Season Two
The two-hour finale of The Newsroom season two, “Election Night” Parts I & II, were in my opinion probably as good as the show has ever been in its two short seasons on HBO (ten episodes in season one, only nine in season two). This is good news and bad, as on the on
“Not Great, Bob!” Josh Reviews Mad Men Season 6
Yes, I know the sixth season of Mad Men wrapped up a few months ago already, but it’s taken me a little while to catch up with this, the penultimate season of the show. What a fantastic season of television. I have written before that I enjoyed Mad Men from the beginning, and
The Newsroom Returns For Season Two
Aaron Sorkin’s The Newsroom has returned for season two, and I have seen the first two episodes. If you loved season one, I think you will love season two. And if you hated season one, I think you will hate season two. Because not much has changed. For me, I find myself caug
Arrested Development Lives! Josh Reviews Season Four
“I think movies are dead. Maybe it’s a TV Show.” For three wonderful, beautiful shortened seasons on FOX that aired from 2003-2006, Mitchell Hurwitz and an extraordinary team of writers and performers spun comedic gold out of the misadventures of the spoiled, selfi
“You Know Nothing, Jon Snow” — Josh Reviews Game of Thrones Season 3!
It seems like the third season of Game of Thrones began just a few minutes ago and now, ten pretty terrific episodes later, it’s over and the long, long wait until next spring and the next season begins. Overall, season 3 of Game of Thrones was another phenomenal season of this
Josh Bids Farewell to The Office
As a big-time fan of the British version of The Office, masterminded by Ricky Gervais & Stephen Merchant, I was, like many, extremely dubious at the prospect of an American interpretation of the show. The Office was so magnificent, so brilliant and so unique, how could an Americ
From the DVD Shelf: Bored to Death Season 3!
Last year my wife and I discovered the brilliant HBO series Bored to Death… just as the news broke that it had been cancelled. Aaargh! We tore through seasons one and two on DVD (click here for my review of season one, and here for my review of season two), and then had to w
Josh Enjoys “The Best of Both Worlds” on the Big Screen!
In a very cool effort to promote the release of Star Trek: The Next Generation on blu-ray, Paramount/CBS/Fathom Events have held a few events screening some of the newly-remastered episodes on the big screen, in select theatres around the country. I wasn’t excited by the two s
