The topics on …

This one was actually pretty good. JD is turning 30 …

So, tonight, I got a …

Stargate SG-1: 2001
In season 4 of Stargate SG-1, there was an episode called 2010 that I just didn’t like very much, reason being everyone was just so depressed with their lives. Season five gives us the precursor to that episode, though, and it’s called 2001. It’s far better and …

House : Whac-A-Mole
I often wonder as I watch House how good the medicine in the show really is. I can recognize that it is unconventional but is that because it’s dangerous or because it’s fake. It doesn’t really matter most of the time, but I do wonder.
This episode was about an 18 …

The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Veldt TV Show
