I’m not going to lie to you — It’s a pretty boring news day. Usually I have a column-type thing of my own ready to go on a day like this, but I’ve been busy with other stuff and haven’t had the chance. Sorry about that. My one-word reaction: Huh. I guess this will work. It’s [...]

I’m still walking around in a daze, not sure how the rest of my life is going to play out with Harry Kalas not in it. It’s just not clear how that’s going to happen. Yesterday, I was asked to write a column about the life of Kalas. I wanted to. I really did. Writing has always [...]

Playing the weekend catch-up game: I would have laid bets on the whole Hannah Montana thing being dead. Would have given 2-to-1. But the Disney formula never seems to die. I’m sure the Jonas Brothers will have a movie coming out next Easter (or sooner) and then comes the Wizards of Waverly Place movie the next [...]

Hope everyone has a great Easter this weekend and I hope Jim Furyk wins because I have him in my golf pool: Here’s one from my list of TV shows that need be released on DVD — The State. Apparently it was music rights issues that kept it from coming out before. If you’ve never seen [...]

still can’t believe yesterday

Forgive me if some of these links are a day late, I was at the Phillies-Braves game Wednesday (biggest comeback I’ve ever seen in person) and basically out of touch with the world: There can’t be that much anticipation for a Sin City 2 movie anymore anyway. In the time since it released, the technology that [...]

linkage for a blah tuesday

Go Heels! A whole slew of links to kill some time: In a business where women are pawned off like sex slaves, children are extorted and bled for their potential earnings and executives consider backstabbing part of the job description, it’s incredible how the music industry treats copyright infringement as reprehensible. Like in prison, how triple murderers [...]

tyler hanbrough is cool

Too wiped from losing sleep over why Ryan Howard would swing at anything Mike Gonzalez has to offer and too jazzed about tonight’s UNC game to offer anything closely resembling a long, comprehendible thought, so here are a bunch of little ones: The projections were destined to be way too low for Fast and Furious after [...]

still must see?

It’s not just ER that ended Thursday. When the doors of County General closed in remarkably classy fashion, so too did what seems like a bygone age when NBC ruled network television in the 80s and 90s — especially Thursday night. We’re talking about a near-30-year era where NBC gave us no less than 11 historically and critically successful [...]

end of an ERa — i stole that headline from my wife

By Mike Sadowski | Published: April 2, 2009 | Comments closed
I’m pretty cheesed about the comments being left under the story I wrote for today’s Record about the last episode of ER and what it means to the people who work in the real ER at Pocono Medical Center. Here I thought I was writing a whimsical, fun, little story localizing one of the biggest pop [...]

It’s raining. It’s bleak. It’s dreary. We’re going to be disappointed by the Damages season finale. So let’s just hit up some links: You want to know who the next Spider-Man villains are going to be. I want to know who the next Spider-Man villains are going to be. WE ALL want to know — but [...]
