Guess who's writing about TV again? Hint: It's me.

I've been hinting for a while now that I'd soon be writing about television again on a regular basis, and today "soon" finally arrived with the launch of Guy.com, a sweet new lifestyles/pop-culture site from some of the people who run net-movie-behemoth Chud.com. The plan is for me to write a new column that will go up every Monday. Each will include a Ready Your DVR sidebar pointing you to the week's most interesting TV programming.

Taylor on TV ended nearly three years ago, and it's nice to once again have an outlet to write about what I still consider the best kind of filmed storytelling: serialized television. This column won't be the same as the last one. After all, I'll be writing for a bitchin' lifestyles website, not some stodgy newspaper. Expect a wider range of topics, a renewed focus on shows outside the Nielsen top twenty, a bit more snark, a few four-letter words and instant feedback from me for those who comment on my posts.

My first two Guy.com posts are already up: a review of the new FOX cop drama The Chicago Code and a look at HBO's most exciting schedule in years. None of these columns will appear at this blog, but I'll be linking to them from my twitter feed when new ones get posted. Hopefully, you all will stop by Guy.com to check out not only my pieces, but all the excellent content my fellow writers are turning in.
