The Walking Dead’s Best Zombie Kills.

Best of the Save Community Campaign.

Since NBC announced that Community would be going on a prolonged, indefinite hiatus after its Christmas episode in December, the show’s cast and its fans have been on a crusade to rally support for the ratings-challenged program.

February 3, 2012
By
Friday Night Lights

Ah, the monologue. Is there anything sweeter than when your favorite TV character tears into a tightly-written, well-crafted, passionately performed soliloquy that’s so powerful it doesn’t just change the scene… it CHANGES THE GAME? You may contend that there are, in fact, better things in life than a TV speech… such as puppies, or ice cream, or puppies eating ice cream.

The 5 Things Chrismukkah Taught Me About Having A Kickass Holiday

In this day and age, people need guidance. They need a map, or a blueprint, or a tiny little trail of cracker crumbs to follow in order to live their lives as semi-functional human beings.

With the holidays fast approaching, and the ratio between the number of family members I have and Christmas gifts I’ve purchased...
