I had planned to do this ultimate recap on the two-hour series (sob) finale of Veronica Mars.
But I…just can’t.
(And in unrelated news, I really must change the air filter in my apartment. I mean, all this dust! Why else would my eyes be tearing up?)
Part of me really wishes Rob would’ve wrapped everything up in [...]

end of volume one
I followed up the Veronica finale with three episodes of Heroes, which means I’m finally caught up.
Okay, I tend not to write much about Heroes. I think it’s a really original, well-written, mesmerizing show, but it’s also, for me, the equivalent of a jam-packed, intense superhero movie. I love it, I look forward to watching, I [...]

didn’t we almost have it all?
One of my favorite things about Grey’s Anatomy is its use of song titles as episode titles. The title of the season finale — “Didn’t We Almost Have It All?” — was one of the more perfect ones.
Okay. So I haven’t read anyone’s recaps, and I haven’t even listened to Shonda’s podcast or read her [...]

the truth will change everything
I finally read the award-winning book that spawned this Sundance Film Festival feature film.
Normally I much prefer the books to the movies, and in this case, the book is phenomenal. It really is. And it blows my mind that this was the author’s very first foray into novel writing.
But I’ve decided I do prefer the [...]

paying tribute
I was seriously just about to post that I was past my weird mood and assure everyone that I am not so emo all the time — usually I am all about the shallow, fun superficialness (superficiality?) — when I decided to click over to Ausiello’s live blogging from the Upfronts.
And that’s when my Meredith [...]

power pop is what we play
So I have been bothered by this for a while. It seems that my favorite type of music — in other words, the stuff I find myself listening to more often than the other genres on my iPod on any given (Sun)day — was genre-less.
I’ve heard it described as punk, alternative, emo, and half a [...]

ode to john hughes
I’m a little too young to have seen any of John Hughes’ classic, monumentally pop culture-ish films in the theaters. Well, okay, I mean, I saw Home Alone in the theaters, but I think we all know I’m talking about his CLASSIC movies.
Ferris Bueller. Pretty in Pink. Sixteen Candles. The Breakfast Club. Some Kind of [...]

for it’s one, two, three strikes you’re out…
It’s official: I’ve got baseball/softball on the brain.
I know I’ve talked about before how I don’t consider myself a sports fanatic — and I still don’t. I mean, I don’t plan my schedule around games and stuff, but if I’m home, I’ll certainly watch.
This is the best time of year because it’s conference championships and [...]

my love letter to damon lindelof
(And Carlton Cuse. But then the title would’ve been too long.)
Dear Damon and Carlton:
I love you.
That is all.
Love, Jen
Short, sweet, and to the point.
Also? They’ve both turned me into a wildly suspicious, untrusting conspiracy theorist. I’m not sure if that’s a good or a bad thing, but at any rate, I did something after watching [...]

farewell to stars hollow
I wasn’t surprised at all to learn that the plug has finally been pulled on Gilmore Girls. All of this recent talk of a shortened eighth season was, I suspect, a publicity ploy on the part of The CW, because from what I’ve heard, Alexis Bledel wanted nothing to do with another season, and Lauren [...]
