Television shows are a lot like relationships; you can usually figure out if it’s going anywhere from the first two days/episodes after which it’s all about commitment. Terrible metaphors aside, I find it hard to believe how much Battlestar Galactica has grown on me over the last couple of months. Science Fiction is a genre [...]


To fuel my current fascination for all things medical, I’ve been on a House marathon of sorts. In less than a week, I’ve managed to watch over 35 episodes of the 45 minute medical drama. Sure most of the jargon manages to fly by but I’ve come to a point where I can tell [...]


The new Apple iPOD Nano ad (video link) has an extremely catchy tune. After humming it on trains, at work and in the shower, I decided to find out who the artist was.

A very neat HP ad featuring Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind).


What exactly are these so called ‘Moral Values’ that so many self righteous pretentious hypocrites of our country keep touting? Really?
This is a long due post. It will not  arrive at any conclusions and it will not do anything about the ’situation at hand’. Like most passive youngsters (!), I cannot do anything about it [...]


In keeping with my whole Garden State/Zach Braff fan boy image, here’s the ultimate ZB homage video. Just after I got it from Pangu, I found out that Zach Braff actually posted it on his blog as well!
The video is so bad that it’s actually pretty damn good. I think I’ll be humming this for [...]


 Scrubs is undoubtedly one of the most amazingly original, funny and heartwarming shows on TV! Second only to the criminally overlooked and underrated Arrested Development.  Every season betters the previous one by leaps and bounds, the characters are always fresh and funny and seldom become redundant.
Perhaps what makes this show stand out from the rest is [...]
