TV Renewal & Cancellation Numbers 2010-2014 (Part I – All Shows)

By Jamie Paton on Saturday, May 17, 2014

I followed all the recent TV cancellation and renewal action on Twitter this year, and while there was plenty of snark, relief, and anguish expressed in 140 characters or less, there was also a lot of talk about this year being a bloodbath in the cancellation department.

The CSI Franchise Rises Again With CSI: Cyber

By Jamie Paton on Saturday, May 10, 2014

On Friday, CBS picked up CSI: Cyber, the newest installment in the long-lasting Crime Scene Investigation franchise. Unlike its predecessors, CSI: Cyber isn’t limited to solving crimes in just one region of the United States, instead it will take on the nefarious ‘under-world’ of the Internet. So that should be plenty terrifying to CBS’s technology-weary …

My First Free Comic Book Day

By Jamie Paton on Monday, May 5, 2014

Even though I enjoy many forms of pop culture and have been to New York Comic Con twice in the last two years, I still haven’t picked up a comic book in a very very long time. (I used to buy Animaniacs comics and other random issues of X-Men and Wonder Woman from a local …

Embracing the Art of the TV Promo Poster

By Jamie Paton on Sunday, April 27, 2014

With TV being a visual medium and all, it’s not surprising that many shows utilize some sort of promotional poster for advertising purposes. You’ve seen them before – as magazine ads, on billboards, or plastered on the side of a bus. I always notice them most often in the late summer, right before the kickoff …

Books About TV: Recounting MTV’s Early Music Days

By Jamie Paton on Thursday, April 10, 2014

It’s hard to talk about MTV without someone inevitably chiming in that the network was better when it was all about music. If that person happens to be you, then I really recommend reading this book: I Want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution – By by Rob Tannenbaum & Craig …

What Is A Normal Episode of Community?

By Jamie Paton on Saturday, April 5, 2014

I was super pumped for the premier of the fifth season of Community. After all, “Repilot” (5×1) marked the return of Dan Harmon and after a ‘weird’ fourth season, I was eager for the series to go back to normal. Or at least back to what I knew and loved, even with knowledge of Donald …

Being A Veronica Mars Movie Backer

By Jamie Paton on Sunday, March 16, 2014

I just saw the Veronica Mars movie for a second time this weekend, a movie I backed on Kickstarter a little over a year ago, just before the project hit it’s initial $2 million dollar goal.

Wonderfalls – Still Wonderfully Sarcastic 10 Years Later

By Jamie Paton on Saturday, March 8, 2014

Wonderfalls premiered on March 12th 2004, on FOX, at a time when the network was quick to cancel anything with less than stellar ratings (this Family Guy scene sums it up best). Admittedly Wonderfalls was hard to promote, as it dabbled in a variety of genres, but no worries, the show’s been off the air …
