TV Geek Out 53: 30 Rock, "Christmas Special"

Yes, the 12 days of Christmas are long over, but there's always room for a little holiday spirit anytime of year, right? Especially when that spirit is as funny and touching as this episode of 30 Rock: Elaine Stritch was hilarious as usual as Jack's mother Colleen, Jenna sang, and Liz learned that she should stop being such a Cranky Sue about Christmas. TV Geek Out is the house with its holiday decorations still up in mid-January, but we don't mind a bit when it offers another chance to geek out about 30 Rock.

TV Geek Out 52: Lost, Season 4 Geek Out Review pt. 2

Are you as excited as we are for Lost's return?! Even though the TV Geek Out geeks only had time to rewatch the season 4 finale ("There's No Place Like Home") before geeking our hearts out about the season as a whole, we pooled our collective brain cells, focused on our constants, and managed to piece everything together. We also rave about season 4's brilliant structure and performances and shout out to some other works of art that share Lost's fondness for folding, spindling and mutilating the fabric of time. Perry, Dana and Heather turn the frozen donkey wheel and geek out about "Meet Kevin Johnson" to "There's No Place Like Home."

TV Geek Out 51: Lost, Season 4 Geek Out Review pt. 1

The TV Geek Out geeks prepped for what is sure to be another great season of Lost by putting our heads together to remember all of season four's amazing twists and turns. Even when we couldn't remember the finer details, talking about all the plot and character development got us geeked! This part of our pre-season 5 geek out covers the first half of season four, from "The Beginning of the End" to "Ji Yeon." Stay tuned for part two!

TV Geek Out 50: Fringe, "The Dreamscape"

Woo hoo! TV Geek Out's 50th episode finds Dana and Heather geeking out about yet another amazing episode of Fringe. Not only did "The Dreamscape" provide completely new chills and thrills -- who knew butterflies could be so terrifying? -- it also delivered plenty of suspense and plot development. Olivia's dip in the tank to purge her mind of John Scott's memories got her almost literally in over her head, and Peter's visit from an old flame was more unsettling than nostalgic. Heather and Dana lick some toads, then commence geeking out.

TV Geek Out 49: Pushing Daisies, "Robbing Hood" and "Comfort Food"

TV Geek Out geeks Dana and Heather have a twofer Pushing Daisies geek out! While "Robbing Hood" may not be the show's best episode, it still offered some great cameos (Shelley Berman as a yarn-balling millionaire and Jennifer Elise Cox as his gold-digging wife) and inspired moments (poor Ned in the millionaire's animal trophy room). "Comfort Food," however, might very well rank among Pushing Daisies' finest episodes. A cooking contest, some surprising dirty jokes. "Come and Sleep Hotel"? "Finger Lickin' Donut Holes"? Mercy! Oh, and Chuck's father comes back from the dead. Not to mention Olive's wistful rendition of "Eternal Flame" and a cameo from one of the most awesome character actors around, Patrick Fischler -- who last rocked TV Geek Out's world as Mad Men's horrible comedian Jimmy Barrett -- as the Waffle Nazi. That's right, Waffle Nazi. Dana and Heather geek out about it and come back for seconds.

TV Geek Out 48: Heroes, "The Eclipse, Part 2"

Without any further ado, TV Geek Out Geeks Dana and Heather take on the trials and tribulations of Heroes' heroes during what must be one of the longest eclipses ever.

TV Geek Out 47: TV News Discussion

Happy 2009! In our first post of the new year, the TV Geek Out geeks discuss some of the top stories in the world of television. First and foremost is NBC's decision to have Jay Leno on every weeknight at 10 pm later this year, effectively trimming their prime-time programming schedule by five hours a week. Was this a good move for the network? For other networks? We hash it out, along with Golden Globes nominations, True Blood casting news, and more.

TV Geek Out 46: Gossip Girl, "It's a Wonderful Lie" and "O Brother, Where Bart Thou?"

TV Geek Out Geeks Dana and Heather bid 2008 farewell with a gigantic Gossip Girl geekout covering two episodes, "It's a Wonderful Lie" and "O Brother, Where Bart Thou?" Our favorite Upper East Siders closed out the year with some of season two's best moments, and, as usual, most of them revolved around Chuck and Blair. Their game-playing and doppleganger dates brought wit to "Lie"'s Snowflake Ball drama, but they dropped their poses for real tenderness in "O Brother". Oh, and Bart was killed in a car accident and Lily had a baby waaaay back when with Rufus. Only one more week til Gossip Girl is back with new episodes!

TV Geek Out 45: 30 Rock, "Reunion"

Who knew that Liz Lemon was a very special kind of Mean Girl in high school? Considering that she went into comedy for a living, it's about as surprising as Jack adopting the alter-ego Larry Braverman with such finesse at Liz's high school reunion. We also learned that an Etch-a-Sketch is second only to the almighty Blackberry when it comes to executive accessories -- that Cathy Geiss is always teaching us something. TV Geeks Perry and Heather geek out about "Reunion" immediately after watching it!

TV Geek Out 44: The Office, "The Surplus"

While TV Geek Out Geek Dana was on a special mission, Perry and Heather watched "The Surplus" and geeked out about it immediately afterward -- no notes, no net, no nothing! Fortunately, this episode of The Office offered plenty of geek fodder: Dwight and Angela's surprise Mennonite wedding, the biggest conflict we've seen between Jim and Pam to date, and, of course, Team Copier vs. Team New Chairs. Like Michael in a Burlington Coat Factory, when we watch The Office, we're literally kings (and queens), and we can't help geeking out about it.
