The Drama Modern Family
by Mackenzie M. on February 1st, 2012 | Comedy, Drama
This week, when deciding which drama show to review, an unlikely candidate came to mind. A show that is known for its smart, real humor and situations, along with its groundbreaking comedic pairing does not strike most people as a typical drama program. However, I would like to argue that Modern Family is in fact a sort of drama in disguise. From the first time I saw an episode, I immediately looked past the comedy and saw the intricate, emotional storylines that are conveniently hidden behind the outward comedy of the show. Let me explain.

Glee? Not So Much
by Kaitlin on January 25th, 2012 | Comedy, Drama, Sitcom
When other people criticized Glee for being too cliché and annoying, I was one who defended it. It’s funny because of the stereotypes! The characters are supposed to be exaggerated! Normal people really do break into song all the time! OK, so maybe that last statement is totally false. But still. I liked Glee because it was ridiculous, because it poked fun at high school and the different types of people you encounter there. And also, it had Jane Lynch. Enough said.
Lately, though, watching Glee has been a bit of a chore for me. I didn’t even watch last

Alcatraz
by Ronald A. Rowe on January 23rd, 2012 | Drama
JJ Abrams. Intricately layered mysteries. Time Travel. Sam Neill. And Jorge Garcia (Hugo of Lost fame) as a comic book fan boy. What’s not to love about Fox’s latest drama, Alcatraz?
The basic premise of Alcatraz is that the prison closed in the 1960’s because all the inmates -- and everyone else on the island -- mysteriously disappeared. Almost 50 years later they begin reappearing and performing all manner of no-goodness, looking not a day older for their absence of half a century. Now it is up to Detective Rebecca Madsen (Sarah Jones) and Dr. Diego Soto (Garcia) to unravel
