When the second season of The Boondocks premieres tonight [Adult Swim, 11:30/10:30C], there will be a few cosmetic changes. The animation is noticeably improved and the sound is better. What hasn’t changed is the way that stories written over a year ago will still seem as if they were ripped from today’s headlines.
Guitar Hero III Full Set List Announced! by Hardcore Queen
One of my favorite game series is Guitar Hero, I’m addicted to it, but my secret shame is that I suck at it. I’m an expert on the easy level, but can’t get my hands to work properly on the normal level. I wish the GH folks would come up with a hard a level […]

Welcome to the Tellybox! by Carole Gordon
Welcome to the Tellybox – the blog where I will chat about the very best of British telly, as well as the not-so-good and sometimes the downright nasty. So, you can expect lots of meanderings about the fabulous Doctor Who, the intermittently fabulous Torchwood, the yeah-okay-anachronistic-but-has-that-hottie-Richard-Armitage-in-it Robin Hood, and the one I’m still […]

Zune could finally compete with the iPod. By Jenny Zwick
Last year Microsoft launched the first version of its wannabe iPod killer, the Zune last year to a big fat yawn from the public and tech critics alike. The original device was pretty fugly from a hardware standpoint, its colors muted and drab, and the software itself pretty lame. There was just no compelling reason […]
Eureka’s Season Ender is Satisfying. Michelle Alexandria’s Review.
This has been a year of discovery for me and one of those finds has been the quirky Sci-Fi show Eureka. When I met the cast at their Vancouver set, I had no clue what the show was about or even what I was looking at. And it seemed like 75 percent of the assembled […]
Alienware Area 51-7500, the Ultimate Dream Desktop. Michelle Alexandria’s Review
A few months ago I asked my friends at Alienware to send me their latest and greatest desktop computer, the Area 51-7500 ALX, and the minute I received it, I remembered why I decided to go with Alienware’s m9700 beast of a laptop for my personal computer – which I paid for out of my […]
