The Wire virgin’s diary – Getting the old team back together

(Season 2, Episodes 1-4) During my diaries from season one, more than one commenter warned me about season two. I’m enjoying the season so far and there is a lot going on, but it is very different than the first season. All the characters that we got to know and love from the case during […]

And the new Doctor Who is…

This guy! No, that’s not the new drummer for whatever indie band the obnoxious teenager next door has stretched across his t-shirt, nor is that the obnoxious teenager himself.

Diary of a Supernatural Virgin – Dark, poignant, funny, and I still hate Meg

(Season one, Episodes 13-17) Only five more episodes until the first season ends? Say it isn’t so! Supernatural is some of the best fun on TV; I’m so glad I decided to give this series a chance. Some huge things happened in these five episodes I recently watched. They are slowly moving us toward the […]
