As far as my personal nostalgia zone goes, I find I watch more of AntennaTV than anything else.

I like the anthology concept. I wish more shows would do it.

I have to confess I can't have the holiday season without "Hard Candy Christmas". For some reason, it makes me think of the sticky ribbon candy bowl my mid-western grandma always had.

"Big Bang Theory" focuses on main characters who in other shows would only be auxiliary players hewing to stereotype: The gawky nerd who lives next door and says oddball things.

I do get lots of links to advance screeners, which helps, but there's no way I could do my job without the full-on cable subscription.

Never forget that I am paid for my troubles!

Just as it's unfair to review a taco stand for not being a four-star restaurant, I also have to be mindful that not every drama on TV is trying to be "The Wire."
