After months of summer hiatuses and reality-stuffed schedules, we’re finally back to the good stuff. We’re deep into Fall TV Season, when the networks roll out their most promising material … in theory, at least. Don’t worry – there are still plenty of duds to go around, which is why we’ve created this guide to…


Big Brother 17 Week 13: And the Winner Is …
The Big Brother 17 finale concluded the most entertaining summer we’ve had in years. There were laughs. There were tears. There were twins. There was drama. And, of course, there was a winner at the end of it all. The final three battled it out but, in the end, only one of these hamsters could…

What the 2015 Emmys Got Wrong … and What They Got Right
I’m an awards show obsessive. Oscars, Grammys, VMAs, Golden Globes, it doesn’t matter, I’m there, with a big bucket of popcorn and a personalized ballot. Heck, I’ve regularly tuned in to the Independent Spirit Awards. Something about the combination of totally wacky presenter pairings, celebrities I love being charming in real life, and the slimmest…

Big Brother Season 17 Week 12: Countdown to Finals
This week, we saw Final Five rapidly shrink to Final Three. The best blindside of the season finished off a strong competitor, while another vote sent a fan favorite packing.

Big Brother Season 17 Week 11: Best. Week. Ever.
The biggest, baddest, most exciting week all season has finally come to pass. Austin was at last forced to think about his own game (and came through for us with plenty of drama), Vanessa laid a trap that Julia walked right into, a twin was sent packing, and we saw possibly the greatest PoV comp…

Big Brother Season 17 Week 9: King James is Dead, All Hail the King
With Vanessa in power again, it seemed we were in for another boring-ass week of Austin’s Angels controlling the game. I was all set to fall asleep in front of my dumb TV, but King James swooped in and saved us from that sorry fate. Instead, the foursome was forced to start turning on their…

The Best, Worst, And Most Incoherent Moments From This Year’s VMAs
The confetti’s been blown, the gifs have been made, Miley’s tongue is taking a much-deserved vacation. After weeks of anticipation (or dread, depending on your age demographic), the 2015 VMAs have officially been put to bed. But you didn’t think we were just going to let the biggest party of the year slip right under…

Big Brother Season 17 Week 8: The Three-Headed Monster That Couldn’t Be Killed
[Editor’s note: yes, we’re getting around to recapping Big Brother in the middle of the season. Sue us.] We’re a full 71 days into Big Brother (or, as I like to call it, The Black Hole to Which I Sacrifice All My Self-Respect.) Congratulations to everyone who’s still on board: that’s 27 hours of TV…
