One of the dirty little secrets of my job is that I don't do ANY food or cooking shows.

One of the dirty little secrets of my job is that I don't do ANY food or cooking shows.

I'm a fan of half-hour shows that can be both funny and dramatic.

I've loved the "Star Wars" movies for the ride and pure fun and found that it just didn't stand up when asked for more, particularly when it comes to back stories, prequels, spin-offs, encyclopedic scope, etc.

Mobster stories are always a harder sell for me. I don't romanticize organize crime the way others do, though I can be swayed.

I don't have scientific data, but I think plenty of perfectly nice weekends are being given over to the binge craze.

I don't really like to arrange shows by best performances. That's why Emmy season is kind of a chore for me. Unlike movies, where it's easier to decide who was the best performance, a TV show goes up and down, including characters/portrayals.
