RECAP: DANCING's Spotlight on Inspiring Dancers

You have to hand it to ABC; if you're going to stretch a results show that should take all of five minutes to fill an hour, it's a respectable and classy thing to bring something to the show that real... (more...)

RECAP: The STARS Get Sentimental

How do you follow up the delightful, glittering spectacle of nostalgia and shirtlessness that is prom night, you ask? With a heavy dose of sappy sentimentality, of course - and when that doesn't work,... (more...)

RECAP: A Predictable DANCING Elimination

RECAP: DANCING's Prom Night is a Hit

RECAP: The GIRLS Are Absolutely Losing It

Here we are at the penultimate episode of GIRLS' second season - a season, that, well, hasn't felt entirely like GIRLS. At least not the narrow-in-scope, boho-Brooklyn series we came to know from the ... (more...)

RECAP: The Boys are Back on GIRLS

As unnatural as it is for GIRLS, this week's episode, 'It's Back,' strikes a formidable and welcome balance between the show's leading characters - minus Jessa, of course, because no one knows where t... (more...)

RECAP: Life is But a 'Video Game' for the GIRLS

Last night's episode of GIRLS, 'Video Games,' attempts to show why Jessa is a hipster-coagulation of boho brevity, approaching life lens-less and free. It's nice to actually see her, but it's weird, y... (more...)

RECAP: Cocaine and Mesh Tank Tops, the GIRLS Do It All

Some musings after tonight's episode of GIRLS: should one attend an awful nightclub while high on coke and dressed as a pre-teen girl? Probably not. You'll end up in a yellow mesh tank top that's not ... (more...)
