Sara Gilbert Makes a Bigger Bang on CBS Sitcom | Today's News: Our Take | 8/9/2008
The geek squad groweth. Sara Gilbert, who guested a few times during The Big Bang Theory's inaugural season, has been bumped up to full-fledged series regular status for Season 2. At last month's Comic-Con, series cocreator Chuck Lorre revealed that Gilbert would be back for "a bunch more episodes," but he must have since decided that nerdesse Leslie Winkle is truly needed in the mix — especially since it sounds like Leonard might still be on the market. (See this week's Mega Minute... read more
Can ABC Please Dive Deeper into its Guest-star Pool? | TV Matt'rs | 11/25/2007
Coming in fall 2008: a new ABC sitcom starring Eddie Cibrian and Josh Randall as wacky roommates! That's my prediction based on the omnipresence of those two TV journeymen as guest stars for the Alphabet network. Within the span of a week, Ed alum Randall reprised his Men in Trees role of Annie's loutish brother (in an episode taped last season, I grant you) and also surfaced on Private Practice as Addison's would-be (if not for his propensity for probing his posterior...) beau. Cibrian,... read more
Episode Recap: "In Which Sam Gets Taken for a Ride" | Private Practice | 11/15/2007
If there's one thing I can say about this show, it's that they get some fantastic guest stars. Christopher from Gilmore Girls and, my personal fave, Darlene Connor. With a gun. In the convenience store.But I'll get to that. My first priority is to cover the sex that went on and the sex that didn't. Cooper and Violet — did anyone think that was really going to happen? I'll be honest and say I thought it was going to be Violet who chickened out, but I like how it worked out. I thought Cooper... read more
Ask Matt | 11/12/2007
Like you, I'm enjoying The Big Bang Theory and think Sheldon and the gang of nerds are a hoot. Penny, though, seems to be an unwelcome distraction. I haven't laughed at her even once ? her scenes simply aren't funny. Sara Gilbert, on the other hand, is a riot. Do you think the show should (or would) get rid of Penny and focus on its strengths, the geeks? Last week's episode, which had Penny in nearly every scene, didn't make me laugh once. (Or am I just prejudiced against dumb blondes?) read more
Ask Matt | 11/5/2007
I was totally prepared to hate The Big Bang Theory, so I was surprised at how much I like it. It is one of the few new sitcoms that I find really funny, and sometimes it actually makes me laugh out loud. What do you think of it? How is it doing? read more
Drew By Day; Comedy Tonight | Roush Dispatch | 10/15/2007
Giggling at the antics of the slap-happy contestants who “come on down” at what he calls “the happiest place on Earth,” Drew Carey looks like he’s having a blast, and looks right at home, on the spiffed-up set of The Price Is Right as he takes over as host today. There’s no fuss and no ceremony, and outside of the introduction telling us we’re at the Bob Barker Studio in Television City, and that one of the games is still called “Barker’s Bargain... read more
Chuck Lorre Believes in Big Bang Theory (and Sara Gilbert) | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 10/8/2007
A few weeks ago, New York Magazine invited a panel of real-life physicists to weigh in on the CBS' The Big Bang Theory, in which Johnny Galecki and Jim Parsons portray brainiacs with a surprisingly lot to learn. The opinions were... mixed, let's say, with some of the polled beautiful minds saying the laffer was being a bit funny with the facts of their life and work. When TVGuide.com spoke to Big Bang executive producer and sitcom giant Chuck Lorre, he had not seen the piece, but was surprised... read more
Roseanne's Johnny Galecki Gets His Big Geek On | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 9/24/2007
Creating quality laughs for television isn't rocket science, though it may benefit from some quantum physics. In the new CBS sitcom The Big Bang Theory (premiering tonight at 8:30 pm/ET), Johnny Galecki and Jim Parsons play Leonard and Sheldon, super-brilliant roommates who realize they don't necessarily have all the answers when a bubbly blonde beauty named Penny (8 Simple Rules' Kaley Cuoco) moves in across the hall. Complicating matters further will be the arrival of Galecki's "former wife,"... read more
Roseanne Marrieds Reunite with a Big Bang | Today's News: Our Take | 9/4/2007
I totally called this one just the other day when it hit me that Johnny Galecki's nerd-tastic physicist on The Big Bang Theory, while in pursuit of Kaley Cuoco's blonde... um, non-physicist, would likely need to date a supergeeky gal along the way. Who better to fill that role than Sara Gilbert, who will reunite with her Roseanne hubby for an unspecified number of episodes when the CBS sitcom premieres Sept. 24. Gilbert will play a quantum-theory-spouting coworker of Galecki's, and the pair... read more

February 15, 2007: Crisis of Conscience | ER | 2/16/2007
Thankfully, tonight’s episode brought us back to the interesting cases and patients that draw out the best and the worst in our favorite ER doctors and nurses. We were also treated to some more superlative guest-acting. Sean Young is certainly no Forest Whitaker, but she was poignant and sympathetic in her portrayal of the mother suspiciously dying from liver failure. Though I wasn’t the least bit surprised that the hateful older son was complicit in her scheme to slowly kill herself... read more
Love Notes: McDreamy Welcomes Twins, and More! | Today's News: Our Take | 2/2/2007
Grey's Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey's wife, Jillian, on Thursday delivered twin boys named Darby Galen and Sullivan Patrick. The couple have a 5-year-old daughter, Tallulah. Yep, they're all German.... Also according to People: Roseanne vet Sara Gilbert is carrying her and partner Allison Adler's second child.

January 8, 2007: The Three Amigos | The Class | 1/9/2007
Happy New Year to all the fans of The Class. Are the critics finally getting to me? All I've heard since the start of the show was the word "uneven." Up until this episode, I thought the show was friggin' hilarious. But with this one, I too thought it was "uneven." There were many funny moments. In fact, more funny moments in this episode than According to Jim has had in its entire run. But there were also many jokes that just fell completely flat. To me, this was a case of: How many jokes can... read more

November 23, 2006: Scoop and Run | ER | 11/24/2006
I have to say there’s nothing like a big sweeps event to help digest all the turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing and to-die-for corn cakes (in my house, all courtesy of my husband’s amazing culinary skills). Hope you ER fans enjoyed a yummy Thanksgiving feast of your own before settling in for a brand new episode.Tonight, in keeping with the spirit of the season, I would like to focus on the theme of thankfulness. First, I am so thankful that Maura Tierney continues to get a chance to... read more
November 13, 2006: Who's Lina Warbler? | The Class | 11/14/2006
For our first jaunt into the blogging world of The Class, let's play a little game. It's called, "Where they were, where they are now, and what I think" or WTWWTANAWIT for short. Sorry, it's a work in progress. Seriously though, since we're jumping in the middle, we'll do a quick recap. And then I'll tell you where I'm at, so you can get a feel where I'm coming from. Where they were:Ethan Hass (Jason Ritter)and Kat Warbler (Lizzy Caplan) have become good buddies. They hang together a lot, and... read more
