Months of planning does not truly prepare you for what’s in store at the convention until you walk through those doors and behold the thousands of people around you, all dressed in elaborate costume. Since this is my first year […]

Seth MacFarlane showed us a ton of clips, beginning with “I have a bad feeling about this,” the Family Guy spoof of The Empire Strikes Back. Though only a small segment […]

Chuck by Joel Champagne This is the first thing I saw after standing in line all morning. It was totally worth it. Chuck started off my day in truly epic fashion. A rendition of “Fat Bottomed Girls” performed by Chuck‘s very own Jeffster. The crowd erupted into cheers as the cast and writers filtered in. […]
