Been busy at my crap job, so I haven't had much time to blog. Sorry, my merry band of followers. I have kept up my work over at Pop Critics, so there's a few things for you to catch up on. Here ya go...
Here are a few links to me elsewhere over the last few days...
Woohoo! Posted my interview with Alex Epstein up at Pop Critics. It's a pretty interesting look inside the show and some of the writing process. Please check it out if you get a chance.
PC: Did you put the team together back in Canada and fly it out as a group - I know Denis McGrath joined at the same time as you - or did you fill it out with local South African writers? How big was the writing team and what was its breakdown of Canadian to SA writers?
AE: The writing staff was Denis McGrath, Sean Carley and I. We had independently “auditioned” for Bob and Diane, our exec for CHUM, and given our “take” on the show. I met Sean on the plane; I met Denis the next day.
Good morning, my peeps! It's Tuesday, so you know I've got a couple of recaps up over at Pop Critics. But let's not forget last week's Burn Notice recap and my Mad Men review from Sunday night. I'm spending a lot more time writing there then here, but I promise to start bringing you all gooey, original goodness again, soon.
Q: If April showers bring May flowers, what do Monday night recaps bring?
A: Obnoxious links to my Charlie Jade and Middleman recaps at Pop Critics.
This week, we have Five Times the US RDA for Varsity Fanclub members!
Finally recovering from a couple of rough days and not enough sleep. For those who don't know, I saw the 3:15am IMAX showing of The Dark Knight on Friday morning. Since I had to do my Burn Notice recap for Pop Critics Thursday night (read it here) I only managed to squeeze in a paltry 2½ hours before getting up at the ungodly hour of 1:30.
Mike, who co-runs Pop Critics, had put together the little group of us who went. It was my first time meeting the guys, and I was happy to find them as funny and pleasant in person as they are online. The movie is...a masterpiece.
The four of us wrote up our first impressions (definitely not reviews) a little later that morning and Mike compiled them. I think they're worth a look-see.
First off, I didn’t think they could pull off introducing Robin without jumping the shark, but Christopher Nolan proved me wrong again. And I don’t know if she did her own stunts or not, but it really looked like Dakota Fanning was wearing the green domino and hopping around in those fight scenes...Read the rest of my mini-thoughts on Robin, Christopher Nolan, and TDK along with those of Mike, The Trousered Ape, and The Cap'n at Pop Critics.
It's Friday morning, which means my Burn Notice recap is up at Pop Critics.
Read and comment.
It's Tuesday, and you know what that means. Pop Critics recaps! Similar to pop bottle caps, but totally different. When you redeem mine, you get smiles and tingly feelings all over. Click, read, and comment my droogies.
New post up at Pop Critics. I accidentally bumped into a pre-air of the pilot for TNT's Leverage. Go read my spoiler-free take.
This is going to be one of the best new shows of the 2008/2009 season and you don't want to miss it when it premieres in December.
I've got two new recaps up this morning at Pop Critics. Charlie Jade and Middleman.
Check 'em out.
