The world doesn’t need two “Big Brothers.” It’s already got one, and it’s the best. (Seriously, it’s so awesome.) Still, ABC decided to go ahead with its own version of “Big Brother,” titled “The Glass House.” The show is pretty much a direct clone of “Big Brother,” with one significant twist: The viewers are in … Continue Reading →
Don Draper is a man riddled with duality and the ad man’s two sides drove the season-five finale of “Mad Men.” The end result was an anticlimactic but meaty closer Sunday night filled with answers and even more questions that angered some fans and critics who ranted on Twitter and bashed the whole season.

What do you get if you blend “Cops” on steroids, plus “48 Hours” with a dash of “TMZ” spice? “Undercover Stings.” It’s the new Spike TV reality series that gives viewers unprecedented access to the highly dangerous world of undercover police work – from the initial planning and set-up, to the tactical process and the final … Continue Reading →
