The Immortal Kevin Fitzpatrick was born and raised in New York City, and that doesn't make sense. Kevin wears many hats, including actor, editor, and writer, but never yellow. The best things in life are Back to the Future, beets, Firefly and The Venture Bros. When not picking apart the minutia of pop culture in film and TV, Kevin can usually be found RIGHT BEHIND YOU.

Is ‘Seinfeld’ Really the Greatest Sitcom of All Time?
The sitcom is, and always shall be, an ever-changing art. There exists no perfect formula for success between various three-camera and single-camera efforts over the years.

So according to a recen

‘America’s Got Talent’ Still Got Howard Stern
Reality judging competitions these days endure quite a bit of turnover in their judgeships, like the way the coming season of 'American Idol' will introduce Keith Urban, Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj to replace the departing Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler.

‘Community’ Season 4: Chevy Chase’s Exit Revealed?

‘Waterworld’ TV Series for Syfy? Let’s Hope So
Though it may seem like a distant memory, a forgotten relic of the 1990s and laughable portent of big-budget studio epics gone awry, few remember that Kevin Costner's post-apocalyptic 'Waterworld' was considered ambitious in its time. Nearly 20 years later, could it be time for a return to 'Waterworld'? New reports suggest that Syfy could look to the forgotten franchise for a new TV series, or eve
‘The Office’s’ Rainn Wilson Parodies Angus T. Jones’ ‘Two and a Half Men’ Rant
The shock of 'Two and a Half Men' star Angus T. Jones' religious rant against the series likely won't die down for a good long while, but it seems Hollywood itself has already taken aim at skewering the young actor. Hilariously, Thursday ratings rival 'The Office' has taken one of the first jabs at Jones, enlisting stars Rainn Wilson and Craig Robinson to re-enact the bizarre video. Are you read
