I reviewed Robot Chicken Star Wars: Episode II when it aired last November, so there’s no need to get too much into those scenes that I liked, and that are included on this DVD set. I will say, though, that what you get on this DVD is well worth owning, especially if you’re a fan […]
(Season One, Episodes 20 – 22) I have got to say I’ve been quite impressed with the first season of House. The good doctor is interesting to watch as he goes through his machinations. The team around him is fun, though I do think Chase is a bit of a weak link. While the show […]
I’ve been catching up on season two of Mad Men, before season three premieres on August 16. I’m absolutely in love with the stylish look of this show, from the smart fedoras to the taffeta dresses. It makes me think of other shows that took place in the 1960s, including one of my all-time favorites, […]
William Shatner is not one to rest on his laurels. Since his first roles in Canada (his home), old Bill has constantly worked, whether it be on Star Trek, T.J. Hooker, Boston Legal, various TV and movie roles, books, commercials, and numerous convention appearances. In other words, anything for a buck. Now that Boston Legal […]
I’m not really old enough to remember much about the original V stories. Despite that fact, I’ve been told that, as a kid, I was rather addicted to the mini-series and the show. I was a sci-fi geek before I knew what being a sci-fi geek was. Since I first heard that they might do […]
“You’ve taken the safety off the gun.” – Sophie, about drugging Eliot, someone who fights to survive Leverage‘s second episode of their second season didn’t disappoint, and I loved the focus on Eliot. Last season, we spent time finding out about Eliot’s quirks: gourmet chef, fear of technology, and of course his “life school” when […]
I’ve got to be perfectly honest – when That ’70s Show was on the air, I never watched it. It wasn’t until two or three years ago that I caught some re-runs and went, “Holy crapballs, this show is freaking amazing.” I knew about it, of course. I’ve had a massive, raging crush on Topher […]
The time has come to say so long, I tried, and tried, but for me you’re wrong. Jada Pinkett Smith, forgive my forsaking, The work that you’ve done, my heart it’s not taken. TNT knows drama, of cops and of robbers, Leverage combines thieves with do-gooder plotters. Grace and The Closer, and Dark Blue with […]
I talked last week about how this show takes chances and explores themes that others wouldn’t touch. This week is another example of the same, tackling not one but two brutal crimes, and a couple of sick minor ones along the way. The cast, as per usual, does a great job with the material. Photo […]
This episode was definitely of the filler variety. Funny filler, but filler nonetheless. Tommy’s perpetual boozing landed him in Needles’ doghouse, again. Tommy may be a drunken wreck, but he still lives quite a charmed life. His cleaning the firehouse punishment gets him a look at a hot Russian vagina and a quickie with Janet […]
