What makes camp so funny? The setting has been used for several memorable comedies including “Meatballs” and “Wet Hot American Summer.” “Theater Camp” introduces yet another genre title that focuses on a place for young performers; its story revolves around campers and counselors during one complicated summer. When one of their founders experiences a medical emergency, those carrying on face everything from ego-based competition to losing the entire camp forever.

I’d be lying if I said that “BoJack Horseman” season four wasn’t a step down from previous seasons. I’d also be lying if I said that it didn’t have the best ending of any ‘BoJack’ season yet.

The season’s primary storyline surrounds the introduction of a new character: the maybe-BoJack’s-daughter, Hollyhock, voiced by the supernaturally endearing Aparna Nancherla. She shows up one day, claiming that BoJack (Will Arnett) is her father, amid a search for her biological mother.

Have you been watching “This Is Us“? Is it worth all the hype? I haven’t yet caught up with NBC‘s new dramedy, but it’s the kind of hit the network has been aching for. The show’s creator Dan Fogelman isn’t wasting a moment, as he’s gearing up a movie project with a tremendously talented actor at the center.

There’s lots to get into with the script and perhaps a proper review soon (it’s littered with pop culture references, but it’s wickedly wry, arch and nowhere near as annoying as “Juno” could be in moments), but much has been made about the make-out scene in the film with stars Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried.
