This may not be a fair question. In fact, I may not be able to choose (I’ll have to make sure there is a poll choice that reflects that!). But I thought it would be fun to ponder and discuss. If you could only own the DVDs of Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Angel, which […]
I’ve really been looking forward to Leverage‘s “The Juror #6 Job,” since it’s been hyped as a big Star Trek Reunion. We were delivered a funny, entertaining episode as always, but I was a little disappointed by the reunion angle. I expected to tune in and see the jury box filled with stars from the […]
Seriously, tell me you watched Medium this week and weren’t reminded of Flatliners, the 1990 movie with Kiefer Sutherland and Julia Roberts, and I won’t believe you. Once it was finally revealed Dr. Brian Seward (True Blood’s Sam Trammell) was killing himself with the help of the girl from Men in Trees another doctor named […]
Five hundred years in the future, she’ll enter a world where machines rule the earth. Mankind has been driven under ground, and Cleopatra is about to discover, there’s no place like home. That is the voiceover from the opening credits of Cleopatra 2525, and it gives a good basic idea of the story. What it […]
Is there a more definitive fictional British character than James Bond? I say no. You could argue Sherlock Holmes, I guess. What about Ebenezer Scrooge? Robin Hood and Macbeth deserve consideration as well. However, none of those personae has reached the same pop culture icon status as 007. Ian Fleming’s suave spy was a hit […]
I think it’s been made perfectly clear that there will be a good vs. evil showdown before season four winds down. With Castiel, Anna, Lilith, Ruby, Uriel, Alastair, and all of those seals in play, something has to give. Another interesting aspect of that though, is the possibility of a little Sam and Dean battle […]
Ever since hearing about the premise for the Battlestar Galactica prequel series, Caprica, I’ve been rather uninterested in it. From what I can tell so far, and from the few short promos I’ve seen, Caprica‘s aiming at a different audience than BSG‘s. Sure, they hope to pull in as many die-hards as they can, but […]
Joe Dubois really has to be just about the best dad ever. He would do anything for his daughters, as any dad would. But the thing that really makes him stand out from other dads on TV is that he doesn’t let his “dad feelings” get in the way of understanding what they’re going through. […]
This week’s episode of Desperate Housewives was all about the money — the damage it can cause to friendships and the crazy things it makes desperate people do. I’m sure money is on a lot of our minds lately, and I identify with the housewives in various ways: Susan showed her goofiness by first trying […]
It was an interesting week down at the Major Crimes Division. This episode actually featured my favorite aspect of The Closer, as well as my one big gripe with the show. On the plus side, Brenda has a new, and I’m assuming, recurring nemesis. It’s a path that has paid dividends before, as we saw […]
