Great column from the AJC, and I agree with all the reasons, but there are two big ones: Steven Tyler: A wild-card pick by producers as a new judge, the Aerosmith lead singer has proven to be a delightfully quirky … Continue reading
We tried to warn her… Oprah Winfrey’s new cable network is having some early growing pains. After exploding out of the gate in the ratings (and on a Saturday, no less), viewership for OWN has declined significantly. While OWN’s premiere … Continue reading
And guess which one wasn’t a complete claptrap of biased insanity? Before the totals, my opinion: Olbermann’s usual mien is mean – scowling. O’Reilly’s typically laughing, too often at one of his juvenile jokes. Both are narcissists who take themselves … Continue reading
I really don’t like it. I’m not into retro-futurist hair. Opinions from the peanut gallery? Source

9 years ago, a television show hit Showtime that was so outrageous, so different from what was historically shown in the United States, that people had to stand up and take notice. Queer as Folk chronicled the lives of a … Continue reading
