Sure, spending Thanksgiving around a giant table with your closest friends and family and gorging yourself on unreasonable portions of dead bird, stuffing, noodles, mashed potatoes and cranberry is lovely, but wouldn’t you rather celebrate such a holiday with a group of strangers? Especially when those strangers have glib conversations with one another, exchanging witty [...]

by Beal There are very few (if any) holidays that are as inherently zany as Halloween. From the boatloads of candy to the low rent pranks to the costumes (oohh the costumes!), not to mention all the scary stuff, this spooky pagan holiday is ready made screwball entertainment and I for one LOVE IT. Seriously, [...]

by Beal 5. ER - Chloe gives birth to Baby Susie in “Motherhood” (May 11, 1995) A lesser TV authority would never have included this on their list. A main character’s sister gives birth and it makes a Top Five list? Who does that? Well, I do, and here’s why. First of all, we’re talking ER [...]

by Beal On the rare occasion that I do get up off my couch and venture out into the real world, it’s hard for me not only to cope without the constant entertainment that the rectangle of moving colors and sounds provides, but also to see people and places outside the context of the small [...]

by Beal 5. Crossing Jordan and Las Vegas Cross in “What Happens in Vegas Dies in Boston” (2004) This is a prime example of NBC trying to boost ratings on two absolute B-list shows. Even I didn’t watch Las Vegas, but as the one and only fan of Crossing Jordan I was admittedly a little bit [...]

by Beal 5. Desperate Housewives - Bree’s Pretend Pregnancy – Season 4 (2007) Choosing which plot line on Desperate Housewives is the most ludicrous is like trying to decide which former child star is the most fucked up: They’re all strong contenders. Still time and time again the Van de Kamp family sets themselves apart from the usual ridiculousness [...]

by Judi (*Note: Everyone is clearly dying all around us. Run for your lives.) I basically came up with today’s Top Five topic and immediately, I was hit with WAY too many possibilities. Seriously, there have been some bat-shit crazy plot twists over the years. It was tough to narrow down the list to just [...]
