THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NEW JERSEY Recap: Casinos & C-Cups

This week Team Sane ditched the Franklin Lakes drama and had a girls-only weekend in Atlantic City. Caroline, Dina and Teresa stayed at the Water Club Hotel and shopped, lounged around by the pool and dined out. Seemed like a nice relaxing trip, which unfortunately doesn’t make for exciting television. The only notable happening was […]

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NJ Recap: Black, White & Read All Over

The battle lines are being drawn and the ladies are picking teams. In one corner we have Danielle and Jacqueline and in the other corner we have Dina, Caroline and recent addition – Teresa. Teresa started to make the switch to the other team after Danielle insulted her husband Joe at a dancing lesson. She […]

MENTAL: A Beautiful Delusion

Did you guys watch MENTAL on Fox last night?  Are you digging it yet? I so wanted to like this new episode. But I’m not in love yet.  I find that so far, what the show lacks is subtlety. The dialogue and characterizations are so forced, it’s uncomfortable to watch sometimes. So that’s where I’m […]

Conan O’Brien’s Historical Debut: This isn’t Your Grandma’s Tonight Show

Navigating the waters of late night television is a monumental task. The iconic performers who have sustained us through countless evenings hover in rarified air. Johnny Carson, David Letterman, and Jay Leno are not simply recognizable names. They are elite brands with millions of loyal customers. Considering how difficult it is for parents to settle […]

Casting News: DEXTER Gains a Nemesis, 24 Adds New Faces

It’s rare that I get to comment on any of the three shows I cover for GMMR while they’re on hiatus, but this is a rare occasion. Both “24” and “Dexter” have made some casting decisions, both big and small. In Miami, “Dexter” has gained a new enemy for season four. John Lithgow (“3rd Rock […]

MENTAL on Fox- Yay or Nay?

Last night Fox premiered it’s new summer drama, MENTAL. The show received mixed at best reviews, but I liked it. Pilots are always WAY too heavy handed in characterization, and shows like this are always worth a couple of episodes, if for no other reason than to let momentum build. For those of you who […]

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NJ Recap: “Not One of Us”

This was a Real Housewives’ first. More than half of this week’s episode was focused on the kids. A couple more weeks like this and the NJ season might qualify as a let down. It doesn’t mean good things for my recaps either. How am I going to cultivate solid one-sided relationships with the housewives […]

24 Season Finale: Day 7 | 6:00am – 8:00am

You think Jack Bauer can do it all?  How about our very own Agent Philboy who kept up with the whole season of 24 while finishing his Senior of college?! Take that, Mr. Bauer.  All kidding aside, I would like to thank Philboy for taking on reviewing 24 this season for GMMR.  It’s not an […]

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES Season Finale: Everbody Says Don’t

A round of applause for Tricia who has so kindly taken on the task of reviewing DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES every week for us.  I am so thankful for her contributions and I’m happy that she’ll be covering the show for us next year too.  And thanks to all of you that were part of the DH […]

SMALLVILLE Season Finale

Once again please let me take a moment to thank another member of Team GMMR that has brought so much to the site this year.  Sarah first joined the team taking on weekly reviews of CALIFORNICATION. When she offered to take on one of her personal favorites, SMALLVILLE, I was so happy.  As I’ve said […]

PARKS & RECREATION Season Finale: Rock Show

After a pilot episode that earned justifiably mixed reviews, I have been riding a wave of enthusiasm for Parks & Recreation. Limited to only six chapters in its mini-season, I was impressed with the creative team’s focus on shaping meaningful storylines for each of its main characters and establishing a consistent comedic tone within the […]

SUPERNATURAL Season Finale: Lucifer Rising

A standing O to Nicole for sharing with us her thoughts on SUPERNATURAL every week.  I know it’s a special show to so many people and I’m personally excited to (finally) get caught up this summer.  Thank you to Nicole and to all you SPN fans for such great conversations this season.  I can’t until […]

30 ROCK Season Finale: Kidney Now!

Last night was not only the season finale of 30 ROCK, but it was also the last recap by the wonderful Kari.  Kari, thanks so much for reviewing this season of 30 ROCK.  We are all so grateful.  We’re going to miss your weekly reviews next season but we hope you’ll stop by and comment […]

BONES Season Finale: The End of the Beginning

I know you all have lots to discuss tonight, and I don’t want to hold you up, but please allow me to interrupt for just a minute to thank Seeleybaby for all hard work in bringing BONES to GiveMeMyRemote.com this year. She’s helped to create and cultivate such a wonderful community of BONES fans. So […]

24 Debrief: Day 7, 4:00am – 5:00am

A big congrats to Philboy who is graduating this week!!! So, I’m graduating college this week and moving out of my temporary home for four years. Therefore, this week’s review is going to be short, unfortunately. But, a couple of comments on this week and the big question for you all. I thought this was […]
