Take Shelter: A portrayal of madness in crazy times

So the Miami-set and filmed Charlie’s Angels got the boot, but at least we still have Magic City. According to the trailer for the first episode (posted after the jump), the Starz drama begins on New Year’s Eve in 1959, the same day Fidel Castro took over Cuba. In our…

Dangling down here like the neglected foreskin of America, we’re expecting Saturday’s Occupy Miami protest to spiral out of control. Mark our words: There will be food trucks. There will be reggaeton blaring. Someone will bring up Fidel or Chavez. Yes, the Everglades need to be saved and the Port…

FOX’s cult-hit-turned-fan-favorite, Arrested Development, is returning to the airwaves for a victory lap season leading up to the grand finale feature film.
