Where to Stream Of all the great things about television, the greatest is that its onevery single day. TV history is being made, day in and day out, in ways big and small. In an effort to better appreciate this history, were taking a look back, every day, at one particular TV milestone. IMPORTANT DATE IN TV HISTORY:May 15,2006 PROGRAM ORIGINALLY AIRED ON THIS DATE:Greys Anatomy, Deterioration of the Fight or Flight Response / Losing My Religion (Season 2, Episodes 26/27) [Stream on Netflix] WHY ITS IMPORTANT:ThatGreys Anatomy premiered on ABC in the same season thatLostandDesperate Housewives did sometimes gets lost, becauseGreys premiered at mid-season. And late mid-season at that. Airing only 9 episodes before the end of season 1,Greys Anatomy didnt really have time to become an addictive ratings sensation. That came in season 2. The second season ofGreys Anatomy did everything a smart primetime soap should. It cranked up the intrigue on its central romantic drama, adding Kate Walsh to the cast as McDreamys wife. Set half of its cast up to be hopelessly in love with the other half. Its medical cases got more fraught and high-pressure. This was the season with the celebrated post-Super Bowl episode, … Continue reading →

The last full week of the 2016-17 TV season means a slew of season finales. NCIS, TVs most-watched drama, closes its 14th season at 8 p.m. Tuesday on CBS. The story sends Gibbs (Mark Harmon), the newly married McGee (Sean Murray) and Torres (Wilmer Valderrama) off to Paraguay to hunt for a missing Navy SEAL. Greys Anatomy wraps up its 13th season with the hospital in jeopardy. A trailer for the episode Ring of Fire, at 8 p.m. Thursday on ABC, resembles The Towering Inferno. The last episode suggested that Dr. Stephanie Edwards (Jerrika Hinton) is no longer with us after trying to stop a madman. We applaud her courage, but her methods were ill-advised. Scandal closes its sixth season with two hours at 9 p.m. Thursday on ABC. President Fitzgerald Grant (Tony Goldwyn) ends his presidency with a series of changes, and Mellie Grant (Bellamy Young) prepares to become the first female president. Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) works furiously to ensure the president-elects safety. The Blacklist wraps up its fourth season with two hours at 9 p.m. Thursday on NBC.

The other day someone called me a Bro-Witch online and mentioned that there were at least twenty other Bro-Witches out there in the universe. Now I have no idea what exactly at Bro-Witch is and who my Bro-Witching Brothers are, but apparently they are out there. Of course Bro-Witch was meant as an insult, and I took it that way, but after a little thought I decided that the title was absolutely hilarious. According to the Urban Dictionary a bro is defined as: An alpha male idiot. This is the derogatory sense of the word (common usage in the western US): white, 16-25 years old, inarticulate, belligerent, talks about nothing but chicks and beer, drives a jacked up truck thats plastered with stickers, has rich dad that owns a dealership or construction business and constantly tells this to chicks at parties, is into extreme sports that might be fun to do but are uncool to claim (wakeboarding, dirt biking, lacrosse), identifies excessively with brand names, spends a female amount of money on clothes and obsesses over his appearance to a degree that is not socially acceptable for a heterosexual male. Sadly (though I guess I should probably be relieved) I … Continue reading →

An unstated yet central premise of Anatomy of Innocence: Testimonies of the Wrongfully Convicted, is that anyone anyone can be sent to prison for murder. In the United States, this injustice falls preponderantly on people who are black. But as the stories in this book underscore, no one is immune. The snare of wrongful conviction can steal years and decades from the lives of daycare moms, law students, small business managers, and people innocently sitting in their car watching the ocean. Anatomy of Innocence pairs the Kafkaesque experiences of 15 exonerated individuals with pedigreed writers who tell their stories. The list of contributors include Maines own international best-selling espionage author Gayle Lynds, writing here with her husband, John Sheldon, a former defense attorney, prosecutor, and judge; Lee Child, author of the popular Jack Reacher thriller series; and the late Pulitzer- and Tony-Award winner, playwright Arthur Miller, who years ago wrote an essay published here for the first time about a wrongfully convicted teenager. The books introduction is by best-selling legal thriller novelist Scott Turow. The series of profiles follows a loose progression of events that typify the hellish journey through the penal system. Each profile focuses on one or two … Continue reading →

American actor Patrick Dempsey played a starring role at the Giro d'Italia on Friday when he donned a vintage pink jersey and rode with the peloton for the opening kilometres of the seventh stage at Castrovillari. Dempsey, who played a doctor in the popular television series Grey's Anatomy, was appearing as a guest of the BMC team, who were celebrating on Thursday after seeing their Swiss rider Silvan Dillier clinch the fifth stage. US actor Patrick Dempsey stands on the podium prior to the start of the 7th stage of the Giro d'Italia. Photo: Alessandro Di Meo/ANSA via AP Dempsey appeared at the start line of Castrovillari and was also pictured on the riders' podium, where he was asked who his favourite cyclist of all-time was. "Merckx," replied the 51-year-old American, referring to retired Belgian legend Eddy Merckx generally considered the greatest stage racer of all time. Dempsey then hopped on his bike, clipped into his cleats and rode alongside Luxembourg's Bob Jungels wearing the real pink jersey as race leader for the opening kilometres of the route which lead to the official start line. Friday's stage is a 217 km ride from Castrovillari to Albrobello, close to Bari in … Continue reading →

Grey's Anatomy confirmed many of our suspicions tonight, but it still managed to shock us pretty seriously. First, let's talk about that ending. Stephanie (Jerrika Hinton) was held hostage by a psychotic rapist patient after thinking he just wanted to be reunited with the love of his life, instead of the woman he had been trying to rape when she caused the car they were in to go off of a cliff. He planned to set a small fire to get the emergency doors open, but instead, Edwardsset him on fire, which also lit up anoxygen tank and caused a huge explosion. Maybe, possibly, Stephanie could survive, but it's not looking likely. That was a pretty big explosion, andHinton isreportedly leaving the show. Still, we're not ready to watch another one of these doctors die! ABC Elsewhere, Owen (Kevin McKidd) found out that his sister Megan is somehow still alive, and Alex (Justin Chambers) encountered Jo's husband (played by guest star Matthew Morrison) at a conference and imagined beating him up. Instead, he just told him to stay away from his ex-wife, but we can't imagine he's gone for good at this point. In slightly better news, Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) … Continue reading →

ANALYSIS/OPINION: Every time the Washington political press freaks out and goes into full panic mode against President Trump, the blockbuster, Watergate-volume story always unfolds the same way. First the news starts leaking or breaking. Newsrooms from the Potomac to the Hudson become seized and fixated on every morsel of the delicious story. News flashes zing around the internet. Then it hits cable television and the press starts slinging the most salacious and scandalous accusations they can whip up, charging the president with the highest crimes imaginable. Each time, these reporters sink deeper and deeper into a fantasyland as they dream bigger and bigger. THIS TIME, they keep thinking, we FINALLY got him! Reporters and Democrats alike not to repeat myself are actually now speculating about whether Mr. Trump will survive the certain impeachment hearings to come. But then, as the heavy breathing subsides and the adrenaline rush gives way to factual, concrete reporting, the most damning charges fall away. Turns out Mr. Trump is a germaphobe and wasnt in that Russian hotel room. The bust of Martin Luther King is still in the Oval Office. He didnt abandon conservatives by naming his sister to the Supreme Court. Mr. Trumps Tower … Continue reading →

The river From its terminus at Montreal, with tributaries that reach deep into the heart of central Canada, the Ottawa River drains more than 146,000 square kilometres a larger footprint than many European countries, including Ireland, Hungary andGreece. Yet the river is also one of Canadas most regulated waterways, with 13 major reservoirs and more than 50 major dams and hydroelectric generating stations along thesystem. So how can a river with so many controls still manage to flood its banks, causing loss of life and what will almost certainly turn out to be many millions of dollars in property damage? The answer is that most of the controls and all of the reservoirs are on the upper third of the riverbasin. Ile Mercier covered in floodwater is seen on the Riviere des Prairies on the north part of Montreal, on May 8,2017. PAUL CHIASSON/THE CANADIANPRESS The southern two thirds of the basin essentially has no substantial storage on it, says Michael Sarich, a senior water-resources engineer with the Ottawa River Regulation Secretariat, which oversees procedures related to water levels on theriver. This means once water gets beyond the reservoirs and is running freely through the most populated regions of the … Continue reading →
