The first season of this new ABC series just came out on DVD. " Pushing Daisies " is a fast-paced, whimsical, and light-hearted comedy -- nothing like the dark humor of "Six Feet Under" that I expected. Bryan Fuller ( Heroes, Wonderfalls ) and Barry Sonnenfeld ( Men in Black ) are...

I must preface this review with the fact that I'm only 25 years old. I did not get to experience Adam West's Batman during its bat-heydey in the 60s. However, I do have fond memories of going to grandma & grandpa's (they had cable!) as a kid, watching reruns on their HUGE 27-inch console...

It has been a big couple weeks for the comedy series the US has loved for so long. The original Ghostbusters has recently been rereleased as a promotional add on to some PNY USB Flash drives . If the idea of ghosts on your USB drive doesn't bother you, somethin' tells me the $60 price tag will...

A couple of friends mentioned this flick, so when I saw a copy on the NEW shelf, I grabbed it. I had imagined some dense foreign flick, and wasn't prepared for this wacky British combination of comedy and drama. Bruges, it turns out, is a town in Belgium that contains one of the most perfectly preserved...
