A World Without Black (TV) Drama

I was reading this piece on the 10 most promising network pilots and while I was excited to see some of these shows, I have to admit that I was slightly disappointed that we would go another year without seeing my television dream come true. I long for the day when a network will [...]

Dearly beloved: we are gathered here today to try and figure out exactly WTF is wrong with Kenya.

An old nemesis of Olivia has some, uh, interesting ideas about how to get elected to the White House. [...]
