Each half hour of the weekend is devoted to one band or artist. The showcased music comes from all genres and eras, and from all points across the music spectrum. Massive Music Weekend runs from noon today to 12:01 a.m. Monday. Fri, 10 Feb 2012 00:00:00 -0500 Laughs not written into the plot of 'Comic Book Men' http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/12041/1209218-67-0.stm?cmpid=radiotv.xml "Comic Book Men" (10 p.m. Sunday, AMC), set inside film director Kevin Smith's New Jersey comics and collectibles store, struggles to find a raison d'etre in its premiere episode. Unlike so many of the dirty job shows on TV ("Deadliest Catch," "Bering Sea Gold," etc.), this docu-series does not feature guys at work in a dangerous setting. Fri, 10 Feb 2012 00:00:00 -0500 'Antiques Roadshow' to start airing segments taped here http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/12039/1208690-67.stm?cmpid=radiotv.xml This devil will be given his due, thanks to "Antiques Roadshow." When the venerable PBS appraisal show airs the three hours shot in Pittsburgh beginning Monday, one of the locals who made the cut was Robert, a retired schoolteacher from the Mon Valley. Wed, 8 Feb 2012 09:53:00 -0500 Tuned In: 'The River' has a lot going on under surface http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/12038/1208534-67.stm?cmpid=radiotv.xml ABC's "The River" turns out to be a more interesting show than its pilot suggests. That's not to say the premiere, airing tonight at 9 on WTAE, is disappointing -- it's a scary enough introduction -- but future episodes expand the show's universe, better develop the characters and reveal that while the show is called "The River," not every story has to take place on a boat.
