Television Critic
For a period of eight months in 2005, Gardner wrote a series of humorous TV reviews on the subject of Reality Television. Entitled Telly Critic, these reviews were often scathing, yet Gardner has talked elsewhere of his great love of Reality TV. Telly Critic was brought to a close at the beginning of 2006, but Gardner has repeatedly raised the possibility of a return to this work in the future.
