Aamir Khan has the midas touch – anything he touches turns to gold. His films make the most money and every new launch breaks previous records. He shuns award shows, rightfully so, award shows have become ways to award film industry children more than talented actors, and anyway Aamir is laughing all the way to [...]

I love Sundays! 9-10pm = True Blood, 10-11pm = Mad Men. Whats not to love? I am glad to see Don Draper back in action, and Peggy more confident and modern with a cute hairstyle. I caught up on previous seasons having missed them when they ran on TV, and was disgusted by Don Draper. [...]
True Blood: book Sookie vs. show Sookie

I watched True Blood before reading all the books, and liked it. Sookie seemed like a good fit. Then I read all the books, and fell in love with them. The characters came to life, and the show made it so much better. Every single character is amazing and plays the role with aplomb, except [...]

I recently started watching True Blood, a story about vampires. I got into vampires when I started watching Vampire Diaries. Frequenting forums, I found out that Twilight books were for teenagers, Vampire Diaries for young adults, and True Blood was for adults. I watched all episodes of VD and TB, and started on the books. [...]
Vampire Diaries

I recently got into the show Vampire Diaries. I am growing to like CW11 shows – Gossip Girl, and now VD. As the title suggests, the show is about vampires and is based on a series of books by the same name. I completed two books in the series, but the show is way better. [...]
Perfect Bride – crappy show

Since I have temporarily put up at a friend’s place and they have RCN, I upgraded my service to Indian TV channels. 10-11pm is boring time – nothing plays on TV. So I checked out Perfect Bride. What a crappy show! And I cannot believe the judges are high-profile Malaika, Shekhar Suman, Amrita Rao, and [...]
RCN is such a crappy cable service in NY. They are relatively new, and their program titles and timings are always incorrect. The quality especially when you change channels is quite poor. But they are getting better. They used to use a filter to keep out upgraded channels from basic service, but now they have [...]
The curse of reality shows

When I first moved to the US, I got into reality shows because I was intrigued by the drama. My initial impression was that Americans are primarily like the ones on the Jerry Springer show, Maury’s show, and various other talk and law shows during the day. Since I was at home and did not [...]
