Where do you write from?A third-floor bedroom that gets way too much morning light in a suburb of Washington, DC.
Craziest/funniest TV Squad comment you've seen?
Easily it had to be the guy who sent a 1200 word screed in response to a post I did about why Friday Night Lights shouldn't be renewed and ended it with the line: WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?!?
If you were only able to watch one TV show, what would it be?
It would have to be the West Wing. It's best for sheer re-watchability. Also, dreamy Rob Lowe as a bonus.
Most overrated and underrated TV show (current or past)?
Overrated: Probably Mad Men. I just don't get the appeal of that show. American Idol, too.
Underrated: Sports Night. Laugh at me if you will, but the show was ahead of it's time and SO SO good. Also, Daria.
Best benefit of writing for TV Squad?
The screeners and interviews are a nice perk, but as someone who takes their TV very seriously, it's nice to have a venue where you can vent about any and every show you watch. It's also great to connect with other viewers and writers.
Where else can we see you on the web?
I used to be managing editor over at DCist.com, but sadly, my day job keeps me chained to my keyboard pretty good and leaves little time for anything else.
