TV News: HBO Renews ‘Enlightened,’ Cancels Three Other Series
Submitted by BrianTT on December 20, 2011 - 2:14pmCHICAGO – HBO has such a limited amount of series and so many critical darlings that when they announce a renewal or a cancellation it carries more weight than most networks.

TV Review: Jason Schwartzman Still Can’t Save ‘Bored to Death’
Submitted by BrianTT on October 10, 2011 - 8:43amCHICAGO – “Hung” returned for a third season this week and every year that program comes back, I think “Boy, I like Thomas Jane, maybe this is the year that this disappointing show turns around.” And, just like that program, every year that “Bored to Death” lands on my desk, I think “Boy, I like Jason Schwartzman, maybe this is the year that this disappointing show turns around.” And, just like “Hung,” I’m disappointed yet again.
