Supernatural: Castiel Bends Time and Truth

Posted: 21 Apr 2011 08:51 PM PDT

On Supernatural's upcoming Western-themed episode, Dean and Sam aren't the only ones facing a life or death showdown.

After Castiel (Misha Collins) sends the Winchesters (Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki) back in time to follow up on a clue from Samuel Colt's diary, he continues with his own efforts to build up a supernatural army. As the season has been progressing, however, more and more of his actions have become suspect.


From The Louds to Snooki: A History of Reality TV Stars Blaming the Edit

Posted: 21 Apr 2011 08:43 PM PDT

The most illuminating part of HBO's original movie Cinema Verite (airing Saturday at 9/8c) comes at its very end. We get to see a clip of the real Loud family, whose participation on the first modern reality show, 1973's An American Family, is central to the film. Verite transitions from the fictional portrayal of the Louds to footage from their actual appearance on The Dick Cavett Show, which was part of their self-orchestrated, damage-control tour following the mass criticism they received from viewers as a result of the show. During the segment, they voice their disdain for having their lives edited and their personalities categorized to suit plotlines. In response, Cavett snorts, "Anybody who's in show business would have to call you nave to think that you could think that you could appear on television and not have it selected, edited..."

If anyone had a right to complain about editing, surely it was this family of guinea pigs. What's amazing about this is that some 38 years later, we're still having this conversation as a culture...

‘Archer’ season finale: Is this the bleakest comedy on television?

Posted: 21 Apr 2011 07:54 PM PDT

Archer started its second season finale with an unexpected image: Sterling Archer in love. Katya Kazanova, the Russian spy who saved his life in last week's episode, swore that she had fallen for him at first sight.
