Biggest Loser - December 9th 2008

Devious Maids (tv series)
I discovered a lot of television series last year, but one of them that remains my favourite is “Devious Maids”. This is despite its very close resemblance to one of those daytime soap operas.

Family Guy
I think Family Guy is a great show because it offers mindless animated comedy on the surface, and thoughtful cultural satire upon deeper inspection. I can enjoy an episode of Family Guy whether I’m in the mood for witty, clever commentary or simply wicked slapstick humor.
My …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Young Gun
Have Gun - Will Travel: Young Gun is the ninth episode of this second season. It actually feels like a response to, or an extension of, the sixth show, The Protegé that had Peter Breck as a guest star. The circumstances are a little different, but …

Star Trek: Metamorphosis TV Show

30 Rock: Jack the Writer
After four episodes of 30 Rock I am beginning to get the feeling that the writers of the show don’t know exactly where they want to go with it. Jack, the boss, is the prime example of this to me. His character seems to have changed nearly every episode.
Still, …

What’s New Scooby Doo: The Vampire Strikes Back
As far as “What’s New Scooby Doo” episodes are concerned, the one entitled “The Vampire Strikes Back” was better than some of the first season episodes I’ve watched.

The episode features the Hex Girls (which I can only assume means …
