Quick like a bunny this week for Weekend Fun Guide. As always, if you got something you wanna see in this spot on Fridays, email it to me or send an invite to the Poprox Facebook page: Meant to get this in last week but ended up sticking with an all-parade motif. But the Jacob [...]
(This is an extended preview to the PopRox column in the Sunday Pocono Record.) Every, single, solitary time I see these ads for The Killing, it reminds me of just how angry the show made me last year. That puts me in a bad mood and in need of some purging, so here are five of [...]

Speaking of Marky Ramone …) Marky Ramone has [...]

Welcome to Mad Men Week! Can’t help it. I’m excited. We’ll be having a heaping helping of Mad Men news this week, for sure. Here’s your daily reminder — don’t forget to enter to win two tickets to see Marky Ramone’s Blitzkrieg at the Sherman Theater on March 29. Got two tickets to give away, [...]
Let’s officially start the countdown — today we’re 10 days away from the start of the fifth season of Mad Men, TV’s best show. That’s a good chance to offer 10 good reasons to pick up Mad Men and just start watching now, even though there already have been 52 episodes aired: 1. It’s easy to catch [...]
