This episode was strangely well timed for me. I spent the last week battling a particularly nasty bug, and practicing my cough just like Joe. That all served to make the biohazard angle all the more creepy. It was helped along by the fact that the story behind it was rather clever, even if the […]
Heading into the retarded Syfy mid-season break (seriously, I’ve hated this game ever since Farscape), I thought it would be good to reference back to the post from the premiere. There, we asked if you were ready to go on Stargate‘s dark new ride. Now the question is … having seen what that ride entails, […]
A touch of the black death, or something doing a remarkable imitation of it, kept me away from the webisode post last week.

It’s quite possible that FOX could improve both Monday and Thursday at 9:00 if they swapped Fringe and Lie To Me. If […]
