  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages(S01E04) "Trust no one." - Patty I assume we're supposed to find it funny that Patty, of all people, was the one offering that nugget of wisdom to Ellen. I think what's more amusing is that Patty herself doesn't adhere to her own advice. I actually believe that Tom entertaining Martin's offer may be the

  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages(S01E05) "Walking out of your own last supper?" - Patty This was a bit of a split for me. While this was an enjoyable episode, it got a little bogged down with all the Tom scenes. We got the idea pretty early on that he was uneasy about leaving Patty, but it was continually pounded into our heads over

  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages(S01E06) "Maybe a chapter on my dyslexia?" - FrobisherUp until this episode, I've had a hard time deciding who I ultimately wanted to root for. Patty and Arthur are both horrible examples of good human beings, but I still found reasons to like both of them. Not any more. After this episode, I'm finding it

  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages (S01E07) "Is this a hydrangea?" - Patty This episode concerns me. Remember the promo for last week? It touted this as being the episode that reveals it all, clues you in, and suddenly adds clarity to the otherwise confusing plot we've been accustomed to so far. Did we get that? Sort of... but not

  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages(S01E08) "Patty Hughes has ears too! Maybe I'm talking to the wrong person." - Larry Despite the minor complaints about this show that I think most people have been expressing, I tell you what -- it still holds your attention for the whole hour. I'm almost getting used to the fact that Damages has a

  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages (S01E09) "I want you to feel the disgust in your children's eyes when they look on you in shame." - Patty Well, that certainly made up for the last few weeks. It's been slow to build, but I think that most of what's going to shape the rest of this season took form in last night's episode of Damages.

  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages(S01E10) "I'm so sick of your bullsh*t." - Ellen And there it was. The moment that we weren't necessarily waiting for, but definitely were expecting. Ellen strikes back. She went from being timid to bold enough to tell off Patty -- the woman who made her that way. However, despite that and some other

• No hung jury for Damages? Season 2 a maybe

  look at it this way -- Glenn Close along with Courtney Cox are the only two strong female leads currently in the FX original series line-up. So it's not surprising that FX brass would want to keep them around and develop their shows beyond one season. I think the biggest question folks will have is how will Damages work in season two if

  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages (S01E11) "You're a baptist, right Ray? Repent!" - Patty This was the first episode this season since the pilot where I really felt a tense energy. It's definitely because we're getting closer to the point when the past catches up to the future. We went from eight days away, to six, to two in this

  A House panel voted yesterday to approve calling the mass killings of Armenians that began in 1915 genocide, defying the White House, which warned that the measure could damage U.S.-Turkey relations.

  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages(S01E12) "Ellen... I can trust you?" - Patty I think the best word to describe this episode was safe. Was it bad? No. However, it wasn't outstanding either. Then again, there is something respectable about giving your viewers exactly what they've been expecting all along. Of course, the inherent problem

  Filed under: OpEd, Episode Reviews, Damages(S01E13) "I'm accused of murder and my mom bakes cookies. Sounds about right." - Ellen Four or five episodes ago, you might have caught me saying that I was getting sick of Damages. It was getting slow and I was tired of all the questions. But with each week after that, things turned around and last

When we last left Condi, she was leaving Turkey, and what greets her? A really not-very-nice article in the Washington Post by this Fred

  What has Condoleezza Rice accomplished in the past week? The answer is always the same: nothing! What has she been doing, where has she been going? Well, that’s a more complicated question....
