I didn’t plan on blogging today, but I found a ton going on I thought everybody should be apprised of. Plus, for personal reasons, I may not be blogging next week. OK, screw that, I hate when people just say person reasons. My wife and I are having our first baby, and Jenna Grace is [...]
Talk about an awards show that needs a makeover. The five reality show hosts turning around the host the Emmys was a bad idea from the start, and congrats to those hosts for pulling off the impossible — actually being worse than people thought they would be. That’s up there with ‘Nova over Georgetown in ’85 [...]
I wanted to make sure I got something in today because I have no idea whether I’ll be able to blog on Monday. Or whether I’ll even be alive. Ryder Cup weekends always take a lot out of me. It’s not as bad as it used to be seeing as I’m at work and sober [...]
Haven’t done this in a while, but I get a bunch of stuff in my e-mail that is worthwhile, it just never seems to have a place to go in Sharp, so here it is: We heard from our friends over at Pocono Brewing Company today. Seems they’re casting for two professional female dancers for [...]
OK, this has taken much, much longer than I expected. But here’s the final installment of what you should be watching this fall, dealing with weekends now. I haven’t regularly watched Friday/Saturday TV since the 80s, but with a baby on the way in a couple weeks, it looks like I’ll be getting used to [...]
For a second or two, let’s just forget that the financial system our country and the world is based on is about to go belly up . . . Congrats to the Coens Brother for finally scoring a hit with Burn After Reading. The offbeat comedy finally scored the Coens a big opening weekend, one [...]
We’re now about halfway through the week with our weekly TV viewing guide. This one is a pretty easy one, because for me it’s been intact for a while. Or is it? THURSDAY 8 p.m. WATCHING LIVE: My Name is Earl, Kath and Kim DVR-ING: Nada WATCHING ONLINE: Nada SKIPPING: Ugly Betty, Moment of Truth, [...]
Back on track to dissect the new TV season, with today’s installment: WEDNESDAY I’m officially calling this “DVR Catch Up Day.” I doubt that’s gonna be any network’s slogan for the night though. “Who needs Lipstick Jungle when you’ve got Chuck burning a hole in your DVR! And make sure you catch-up with Fringe when [...]
I’m over the Video Music Awards. It’s official. It’s not that I’m too old and sit around all day complaining about what it was like in my day. The problem is the show doesn’t deliver like it used to. Instead of looking forward to it and being riveted, I more looked forward to the Phils-Mets [...]
(A local news item quick. It had been rumored for weeks, but it’s now official, Lifehouse will be playing ESU on Monday, Sept. 22. The official release just crossed my desk, I’ll have a longer story up on Sharpmag.com within a half hour. On to the blog.) A little misdirection here. Yes, I meant to [...]
