‘Community’ Breakdown: ‘G.I. Jeff’
This week’s episode continues the ‘Community’ tradition of the animated parody episode. Jeff’s mind has created a world inspired by the classic G.I. Joe cartoons. It’s one of the more fun episodes this season has offered
‘Nymphomaniac: Volume 1’ Review
‘Nymphomaniac Volume 1,’ one-half of a four-hour X-rated opus, finds Lars Von Trier up to his old tricks.
‘How I Met Your Mother’ Breakdown: ‘Last Forever’
It’s finally here: the ‘How I Met Your Mother’ finale (#HIMYMfinale). It’s a real doozy of an episode that already has social media backlash! But what series finale doesn’t garner backlash from the entire population of Twitter? However, let’s try to enjoy the episode for what it is.
‘Girls’ Season Three: Navigating Unexpected Territory
Love it or hate it, ‘Girls’ has a distinctive voice — one of the most raw and honest on TV.
‘The Walking Dead’ Breakdown: ‘A’
This half of the season has been a nice shift in the show and has provided for some interesting character development and moments, but the finale didn’t really pay off.
We’ve Seen the ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Trailer – Now What?
On Thursday, Paramount Pictures released the first trailer for the upcoming reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Yes, the Ninja Turtles are back on the big screen, but the new teaser trailer stinks like the New York City sewer. And it’s not just because of the apparent lack of pizza or “Cowabunga” shouts.
‘Veronica Mars’ Review
The Kickstarter that launched a thousand Kickstarters is now in theaters: The ‘Veronica Mars’ movie continues the ongoing saga that is the life of Veronica Mars.
‘How I Met Your Mother’ Breakdown: ‘The End of the Aisle’
The final episode before the legen-waitforit-dary(!) finale. As the title suggests (although it could’ve also been named “The Locket, Part Three”), we finally (presumably) get to see Robin walk down the aisle and experience the start of TV’s most epic wedding EVER.
‘Girls’ Breakdown: ‘Two Plane Rides’
The season three finale asks just as many questions as it answers — which is to say, the lives of Hannah, Marnie, Jessa, and Shoshanna are as “up in the air” as ever.
‘The Walking Dead’ Breakdown: ‘Us’
This week’s ‘Walking Dead’ was all about setting up the finale, which airs next Sunday night. We caught up with most of the characters and one group finally made it to the much talked about Terminus.
‘Community’ Breakdown: ‘Advanced Advanced Dungeons and Dragons’
As the title suggests, this week’s ‘Community’ is revisiting the world of Dungeons & Dragons. The gang last played it in episode 2.14 when they saved Neil from wanting to kill himself. Now, they’re using the confines of that magical world to unite a feuding father and son.
Scraping the Barrel: #90, ‘Cool as Ice’
This cinematic abortion stars ’90s rap face-palmer Vanilla Ice in the role of douchebag-on-motorcycle. It’s 50% ‘Footloose,’ 50% ‘The Wild One,’ and 100% everything we regret from the ’90s.
‘How I Met Your Mother’ Breakdown: ‘Gary Blauman’
In this week’s in”stall”ment, a character from the show’s sidelines takes center stage as the series continues to build anticipation for the biggest TV wedding event ever (yes, even bigger than the Royal Wedding — or the Red Wedding).
‘The Walking Dead’ Breakdown: ‘The Grove’
After some rather tame episodes (at least in comparison), ‘The Walking Dead’ provided some surprises and shocks this week as we caught up with Carol and company.
‘Girls’ Breakdown: ‘I Saw You’
This frustrating episode brings each main character “back home,” so to speak — with each enjoying a damaging dabble in their greatest flaws, flaws a large portion of this season of ‘Girls’ seemed to lack.
‘Community’ Breakdown: ‘VCR Maintenance and Educational Publishing’
This week mixes some of the classic ‘Community’ parody style with normal sitcom scenarios, making it a perfectly delightful episode. Plus, Vince Gilligan and Gina Gershon have some very random guest appearances.
‘How I Met Your Mother’ Breakdown: ‘Daisy’
As we creep and crawl to the series finale at the end of the month, ‘HIMYM’ spends another week stalling, distracting, and answering questions we had already forgotten we’d asked.
‘Girls’ Breakdown: ‘Role Play’
The subtly infused sadness of ‘Role-Play’ works well for Lena Dunham, who gives perhaps the most focused and rewarding performance of her career thus far.
‘The Walking Dead’ Breakdown: ‘Alone’
This week’s episode of ‘The Walking Dead’ is all about the fear of being alone, which makes sense because it’s titled…’Alone.’
