Project Runway: Finale Part 2 TV Show
The second part of the finale for this season’s edition of Project Runway was both boring and exciting. It entertained and blahed. The reason? Well, in my opinion, I think it had too much time allotted to it. It was a full 2 hours and just …
The Twilight Zone: In Praise of Pip TV Show

Stargate SG-1: Memento Mori
What rally angers me about this review is that I can’t give it a zero, because I’d really like to. It is just one inch away from being about as low as this show could go.
In Stargate SG-1: Memento Mori, Vala disappears and the team is frantic to …
ABC Family’s “Huge” pilot episode
ABC Family has apparently had enough success with its “Secret Life of an American Teenager” to decide to follow that with another lifetime-movie like series, this time centred not around the issue of teenage pregnancy, but that of teenage obesity. Curiosity made me view the pilot and the most …

Have Gun - Will Travel: The Cure TV Show

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Ethics
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Ethics is really a very enjoyable and thoughtful episode that effectively explores two sensitive topics and presents both sides of each topic equally: assisted suicide and testing experimental procedures on patients that, in one case, is willing, and the other case, too injured …
Vh1’s ‘Undatable’ tv series (parts 1, 2 and 3)

Numb3rs: And the Winner Is… aired on February 5, 2010, and it was probably the most enjoyable episode of the season for me. I’ve really missed not having Peter MacNicol on the show. ABC has taken some cost cutting measures for this series, including reducing the number …
