Courtney K on SMASH and rooting for the “wrong” Marilyn

I don’t like to write critical pieces about shows. You can stop laughing now. I DON’T! I feel bad when I think about how hard that person may have worked or how long it took them to get to where they are and how it’s not necessarily their fault…and then there’s SMASH. There’s nothing precisely wrong with this show. The elements are there; fantastic veteran talents, a glimpse into the realm of Broadway, talented bendy males and females prancing about,

BEING HUMAN is back and Courtney K is excited!

IT’S BACK IT’S BACK IT’S BAAAAAAACK!!!! I have been seriously jonesing for BEING HUMAN (back Monday night at 9/8c on SYFY) since it went on hiatus. The complicated lives of 3 roommates who just happen to be Vampire, Ghost and Werewolf sunk it’s jaws, cold dead hands, and claws into me (see what I did there? Nice right? ) and has never let go. I’m perfectly ok with that. Last year was brutal; the season finale left so many questions

Courtney K continues to love / hate PRETTY LITTLE LIARS!

Oh I’m sorry, that noise? That was me shrieking with the joy of a small child who’s just been told they’ve inherited a chocolate factory. “…wh-why?” you ask? PRETTY LITTLE LIARS IS BACK!!! The Halloween episode was torture, TORTURE! Watching the prequel only made my love/hate of this unbelievable show become even more embedded. The realization that “A” has been around long before Alison’s murder only breeds more options for the elusive “A”s identity and opens up the door to

Courtney looks back on her Favorites from 2011

Courtney K is taking a look back on her favorites from 2011 – how do these stack up to yours? Favorite new obsession: DOCTOR WHO – where HAVE I been?? In a world with faded colors that’s where. Becoming a Doctor Who fan (or Whovian) has brought me a whole mess of new appreciations. Much like fans of Army of Darkness or Firefly, there’s hidden jokes in almost everything I watch or read that all point back to one Doctor

Kirsten Vangsness gives CourtneyK all the details on CRIMINAL MINDS

Speak and be heard!! HERE IT IS!! My bumbly interview with the effervescent Kirsten Vangsness from CRIMINAL MINDS. As some of you may know, I wrote a character rundown almost a year ago to the day; it was one of my first pieces for MyTakeOnTV.com and it was about The Brainy Broads: Abbey from NCIS and Garcia from Criminal Minds. I went on and on about how marvelous they were and are. Imagine my overflow of joy when Amrie asked

On DVD today: Gabriel Iglesias’ STAND UP REVOLUTION!

One of my favorite comics has new show and the DVD set comes out November 15th! Gabriel Iglesias, or as he’s lovingly referred to as Fluffy and Comedy Central present STAND UP REVOLUTION! A two disc set, featuring the Fluffy man himself, introduces some of the many friends he’s made throughout his many comedy tours. His “infamous” friend Martin Moreno is the emcee, and with the Grammy Award winning band Ozomatli as the house band, this show brings major funny

CourtneyK takes on the inaugural ComiKaze Expo

Over the weekend I was privileged enough to attend the first annual Comikaze Expo in L.A. While L.A. and I don’t normally get along, I managed to maneuver myself around and successfully plunk myself into the convention center, obtain my wristband and start exploring the floor! Being that this was the first Comikaze Expo, there were good parts and learning parts. I was surprised to find that the whole of the convention was one floor. One. Meaning the panels were

Look who is going to COMIKAZE: It’s CourtneyK!

I’ve been seriously jonesing for another All Things Amazingly Geek experience for months since my first expedition to San Diego Comic Con 2011. No kidding. I think I pounced on a couple of strangers at a Halloween party over the weekend because they were dressed up in the style of Steampunk. I’m not even sure I introduced myself, just launched into a rapid-fire “Oh-my-goodness-you-guys-look-so-great-I-just-love-it-and-look-you-even-have-a-gun-and-goggles-THAT’S-SO-COOL!!” I no longer have to suffer withdrawal, BEHOLD!! http://comikazeexpo.com/ The First EVER COMIKAZE Expo: A Comic,

Fairy Tale Smackdown – Who wins: ONCE UPON A TIME or GRIMM?

When I went to San Diego Comic Con 2011 (FTW!!) this year, I was inundated with posters and cos-players and flashing lights (OH MY!); nestled in with all the every-stuff were blasts about a show. Well, I thought it was ONE show; turns out, it was TWO!!  After seeing poster after poster, and talking about what others had seen I was able to make the distinction; NBC and ABC had the same show concept advertised….ruh roh!! This could get ugly,

CourtneyK and Sasha Pieterse discuss the PRETTY LITTLE LIARS Halloween Special!

Don’t expect cartoon dogs or waiting in the pumpkin patch in this episode! This is a PRETTY LITTLE LIARS Halloween, kiddies! I was privileged enough to be able to interview the Evil Queen of Rosewood herself! (Interviewer’s note: normally I’d be open to, “Hear it for yourself!” but I talk really REALLY  fast and the app I used cut off some of the interview (*grumble grumble*) but thankfully it was partially recorded by my Superhero friend Gloria (THANKS GLO!) and
