My mother told me about this show and suggested that I watch it. The concept of a woman giving birth to sextuplets is fascinating in and of itself. Giving birth to more than four babies at once is fascinating. But this show takes things …

I was a little surprised by Wagon Train: The Sam Darland Story because I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. This season six episode reminds me a lot of Boys Town and Father Flanigan, though there isn’t any connection. It’s just the idea that makes …

Eh, saw yet another Law & Order SVU episode last night, “Transitions” and, once again, I find myself very unimpressed with the show.
