To film or not to film, that is the question. Recent years have shown that the talented bard William Shakespeare is a well-liked commodity in film, and actress and writer Miriam Pultro finds the answers to the popular verse while filming her modernized adaptation of William Shakespeare’s adored play, “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” in Midsummer.

Switched at Birth: Facing a New Reality
It was quite a heart stopper on the past episode of Switched at Birth, literally. After John’s heart attack, he awakens in the hospital . However, this new reality is different for everyone. How they handle it depends on them.
Switched at Birth: What If?
Tonight’s episode of Switched at Birth was the most dramatic one yet. There was an interesting game played on the show tonight, a game of “What If”. What if Regina had told the hospital about the switch instead of keep it to herself for 13 years? The answers to that question were revealed tonight. Answers that surprised […]
SYTYCD10: Top 18 Performance Show – Starts With A Bang
When I found out about the change of format for the results this season, I was hesitant to pass judgment. Generally, whoever calls the shots on “changes” to the SYTYCD format has been smart than changes to other reality show formats (like Idol). Often, the results (like adding the All-Stars back in Season 7) have improved […]
Switched At Birth: Mounting Tension Comes Spilling Over
It seems that not all is right on Switched at Birth. No, it does not seem to be the fact that you had two teenage girls that were ‘switched at birth’ when they were only nine hours old. No, it does not seem to be that there are too many people living under the same […]
SYTYCD10: Top 20 Performance Show – 20/20 Vision
The interesting part of tonight’s show is that, in many ways, the audience starts off like the dancers in one of the routines we saw tonight: blindfolded and waiting for the couples, and the judges true intentions, to be revealed. Tonight is when we see which fan favourites were paired with dancers we previously thought […]
Forging Steel with Humanity: Superman Reborn in “Man of Steel”
What does it mean to be human? Obviously science alone cannot be relied upon to provide all the answers when describing the depth of such meaning and accuracy because it’s not only about biology or physical makeup; it envelopes the entire cosmic being and its soul. It’s also a fundamental question regarding our existence that […]
Mad Women of Mad Men
Set in 1968, with the rising political, racial, and social tensions of the counterculture well under way, Season 6 of Mad Men mirrored the growing unrest in America with its focus on the epic failures of the men of the show, ending with Don Draper having a meltdown that costs him his partnership (temporarily… for […]
Switched at Birth: A New Reality Sets In
In this third episode of the summer season of Switched at Birth, we see reality set in for both the Kennish and Vasquez families. The past two weeks’ episodes have portrayed an almost idyllic life of what “should have been” had the switched not happened. However, this week reality has reared it’s ugly head.
“Monsters University”: Not Up to the Pixar Standard?
Monsters University, released on Friday, is the latest Disney-Pixar movie and prequel to the 2001 movie Monster’s, Inc. It stars Billy Crystal as Mike and John Goodman as Sulley, and features the voice talents of Steve Buscemi as Randall, a future fellow Monsters Inc. employee, and Helen Mirren as the strict Dean Hardscrabble.
SYTYCD Season 10: Ten is the New Twenty
If you read my American Idol series over the last few months (or even if you didn’t), then I’m glad to have you back again because So You Think You Can Dance might be an even bigger reality TV passion of mine. I’m not a dancer by any means. My sister is, but I’ve watched […]
Switched at Birth: Connection Points with The Biological Families
There is an interesting development occurring on this season of Switched at Birth. This is a development I hinted about last week on my recap of the season premiere…a switching of sides on the show. Not to rehash what I discussed last week, but this switching sides seems to be deeper than I initially thought. There seems […]
The Closer You Look: “Now You See Me”
The world has always had its best and brightest. Harry Houdini. David Copperfield. Siegfried and Roy. Penn & Teller. David Blaine. Criss Angel. And now… The Four Horsemen. In movie-world, that is.
