"The Wire" moves to suburbia
Anyone notice the mass appearances of “The Wire” actors to shows not only set in the suburbs but rooted deeply within the psyche of the place.

Gah! "Parenthood!" I hate you so much! Why do I...
My thoughts on “Parenthood” before watching yesterday’s episode: So, so many white people.

From the Dail News, November 11, 2011.
