We're giving away five copies of The Shield season five! (AOL TV)

Apr 2nd 2007 9:40AM I think my favorite scene is the one at the end of season 1, when Vic realizes his wife was gone and had taken the kids, and he slowly and methodically destroyed his house.

Love The Shield. It's the best show on TV, and I'm anxiously awaiting the new episodes.

TV 101: The Real Time View (AOL TV)

Feb 21st 2007 11:25AM I read an interesting interview with Ed Bernero (Exec Producer of Third Watch and Criminal Minds) where he talks about how TV is really not meant to be watched in the format that writers are forced to write into. It's why shows on HBO work much better - they don't have to write to a commercial break. It's why shows can become formulatic. "Oh, cliffhanger... must be a commercial break...".

That being said - I vastly prefer to watch my shows without commercial whenever possible. However - if I am home for certain shows, I NEED to watch them real time -- Bones and Greys Anatomy come to mind.

Wouldn't it be interesting, though, if TV shows were able to sell entire blocks of shows - one advertiser per show - so that we didn't have to sit through commercials?

Criminal Minds: Profiler, Profiled (AOL TV)

Dec 14th 2006 2:21PM I thought that last night's episode was -great-. First off, I am a huge Skipp Sudduth fan (he was the incompetent baffoonish cop), from back in his days on Third Watch. It was great to see him on screen again and to see him reunited with Ed Bernero, who was Third Watch's creater.

The ONLY thing that bothered me about the episode was how neat it was tied up in the end. I felt like a vital scene was cut or something - where was Gordinsky's change of heart? It just sort of ... happened - which I don't know if I believed.
