Jul 29, 2016

It’s a shame this was the final season of Person of Interest because it becomes more intriguing to me with every passing year.

Jason Bourne

Todd Solondz Once Again Shows His Panache for The Hilariously Morbid With Wiener-Dog.

Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates

Jul 07, 2016

It isn’t surprising that Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates is written by Andrew Jay Cohen and Brendan O’Brien as it encompasses the same humor that they have given us in the past with Neighbors.
