Groshan Fabiola's Articles in Arts & Entertainment Show All|Display Category|Title|Newest|Oldest Was Piracy Battlestar Galactica’s Key to Success? I was surfing for info on Battlestar Galactica for a retrospect the other day and came across a piece titled ‘How Battlestar Galactica Made it in' at Buddytv.com. Grey's Anatomy: Character Power Rankings Grey's Anatomy is a show full of great characters. Really, that's what the show is about. A collection of great, dynamic, three-dimensional characters interacting. The cast is really something to behold. The diversity is the likes of which rarely seen on network television, yet it doesn't ever become a major issue on the program. Grey's Anatomy and Quotes: The Peculiar Wisdom of Meredith Grey Grey's Anatomy is a well-written show. I think most people, even those who don't particularly enjoy the program, can agree on this. Grey's is solid because of this, because their characters speak with intelligence and cleverness. The interactions between characters seems real and genuine, not melodramatic. The weird thing is that, although Grey's isn't seemingly the most quotable show out there, the quotes kind of stick with you. Is American Idol a Success, or a Failure? Seems like an easy question to answer, at first. American Idol is without doubt one of the most popular television programs in history, achieving ratings that are intimidating to any genre of television, not just reality TV alone. Year after year, American Idol has reigned as the most watched show on television, so how could it be considered a failure? The answer is simple, the success of the show is inextricably tied to the success of its purpose: to create a rock star. Survivor and the Staying Power of Reality TV Survivor is the grandfather of all reality series. This is undeniable. Survivor was the instigator in what can now be considered TV's reality era. What I don't understand is how Survivor doesn't receive its just due. It deserves far more critical credit than it has received. Why is this? Why is this gem of a TV show being taken for granted? Grey's Anatomy: Face It, Dude, You Like the Show Grey's Anatomy has been (falsely) pegged as show primarily for the female population. This is patently ridiculous. There are female story lines to be sure, but there are also decidedly male-oriented story lines. This all is indicative of a larger issue regarding the pigeon-holing of television programs seemingly geared towards a certain demographic even when they really aren't. Grey's Anatomy is a perfect example of a TV show that has been unfairly characterized as a show only for women and relu Times in need of heroes NBC’s Heroes was dubbed a “surprise” success, but should it have been? In times like this, when we are assaulted with fears of sudden danger everywhere, aren’t Heroes exactly what we need? Many folks point to the cinematic qualities of the show, the urban-pasteurization of the super-hero motif, or the hyper-realism of Heroes as its reason for the success. Grey's Anatomy and Music: Everybody Wins Grey's Anatomy is a great show for a number of reasons. One of my favorite, however, that few people talk about, is the music. Grey's Anatomy features some of the best up and coming talent that the music industry has to offer. After every episode, I go on line and check out what those awesome songs were on Grey's Anatomy that night and then I go to iTunes and I download them. Lot's of my favorite CD's have come from me first hearing about them on Grey's Anatomy. Will “LOST” Ever Be Found? The rumors of its demise sadly over-calculated, LOST has settled into ratings numbers that secures it in the company of the best dramas on television. Had LOST managed to hold onto the 23million-plus it had in the beginning of its second series, I doubt ABC would be able to afford to produce it at this point. Any clue on what Matt Fox might demand for his LOST paycheck knowing the largest television audience in history was tuning in? Heroes and the Comic Book Revolution The comic book revolution in today's modern pop culture has been more or less unheralded. Although a major coup in the world of geekdom, the mainstream press has regarded the increase in mass-market comic book entertainment as nothing more than a passing trend. Interview with the Creators of The Class David Crane and Jeffrey Klarik are two of the great sitcom minds of our generation. David Crane was the mastermind behind sitcom giant "Friends" and now has birthed a new sitcom with long-time partner Jeffrey Klarik (of "Mad About You" fame) called The Class. The Class has started out a tad bumpy, creatively, but, given the premise, this is to be expected. When Crane started "Friends" it was hailed as revolutionary in that their were six main characters. None was more important than the other, a Inside the mind of a reality TV contestant Why do we watch reality TV so much? My theory: we hate the contestants. Face it, having a valid reason to despise is just the rarest of experiences. There is nothing quite like the vibe guilt-free hatred. So a show like Big Brother, full of prepped, prim, and obnoxiously self-absorbed narcissists is a boon for the malcontent among us. All who are LOST are truly LOST All who wander may not be LOST, but all who are LOST are, well, losing it. Why do they do it to themselves, these LOST fans? I like good TV as much as the next guy (when it actually happens), yet even if I did like LOST it wouldn’t be with more than the casual interest I give shows like Greys Anatomy, or Prison Break. I look forward to my one house escape from reality and that’s it; why can’t LOST fans get enough? The OC: Early Premiere Review and Season 4 Forecast The future of FOX's once mighty prime time soap opera, The OC, is murky, at best. The OC has gone through some rough creative stretches over the past two years, leading fans to question not only whether or not the OC will make it beyond its fourth season, but whether it even should. FOX has fueled the cancellation speculation by only ordering sixteen episodes (instead of the normal twenty four) this year. The reasons for this are unclear, but they likely have to do with both the actors willingne The Good-Looking Cast of Grey's Anatomy Grey's Anatomy is currently the #1 television show in the universe. It's given time slot competitor CSI: a beat down, something that the Vegas-set, formulaic, turd producer has never experienced before. Grey's Anatomy is a very good show with an extremely attractive cast. EXTREMELY attractive. What makes Grey's good television is it's unique humor, it's ability to balance that huge cast and numerous storylines, and the strangely riveting medical subplots. But, we understand all of that. What I'm How BattleStar Galactica saved Science Fiction In 1977, Star Wars reintroduced the world to the serialized space opera with groundbreaking results both creatively and financially. In the wake of this paradigm shift came a gaggle of embarrassing me-too projects both for film and television. Then there was Battlestar Galactica.

The Ultimate Fighter has become a gem among the typical dredge of reality television. Smartly Hookah Smoking between Tradition and Modernism Hookah smoking is an old Middle-Eastern and Asian tradition that has been preserved and passed from one generation to another, being recently adopted by many different societies and cultures of the world. In present, hookah smoking is a very common practice in the United States and in various other Western countries, increasingly larger numbers of people being attracted by this more than 300 year-old custom. While a few decades ago hookah smoking was a rare and little known custom in the United States (being practiced mostly by immigrants and the upper classes of society), nowadays it is extremely popular among the entire American population.
