Fringe – S02E09 – Snakehead Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

It's episodes like "Snakehead" that make me wonder if the writers are doing the right thing by including all of these episodes that don't really tie into the show's anthology. With the ratings dropping, I can't help but wonder if this is going to be Fringe's final season. "Snakehead" was hands-down one of the most disgusting episodes we've seen and Fringe has had some disturbing episodes. These squid-like parasitic worms were really a sight to see as they moved about in ... Read More

Scrubs – S09E01 – Our First Day of School Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

I've been eagerly awaiting the new season as soon as it was revealed Scrubs would be getting another season. With the revelation that this season would be taking a new direction, I was intrigued to see how different it would be, whether it would bring something new and good to the table or whether this direction would be so far left that I wouldn’t recognize the show anymore. After watching the first episode, I can say that things are still familiar, but ... Read More

The Office – S06E12 – Scott’s Tots Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

Another episode of The Office has come and gone and it brings with it one of the most uncomfortable character in television history, Michael Scott. This was a nice episode which had Michael Scott making a promise and then telling kids that he would not be able to pay for their tuition and we also get to see Dwight set his diabolical plan into action. Michael Scott made a promise to a bunch of 3rd graders that he would pay for their college ... Read More

Monk – S08E16 – Mr. Monk and the End, Part 2 Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

Awesome. That's the one word I'd use to describe the series finale. Awesome. I'm frequently disappointed by the way shows end, but Monk's final two episodes were terrific. Last week's "Part 1" ended with a cliffhanger, promising more details about what really happened to Trudy and when tonight's episode began, we started right back at that moment, with Trudy's confession. I have to admit it was quite a confession. Before she and Adrian met, she had an affair ... Read More

Dexter – S04E10 – Lost Boys Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

“Lost Boys” was a good episode that revealed more about the Trinity Killer than I thought there was possible. When Dexter showed his murderous side last week, I wasn’t sure where they would take the relationship between the two. I was also wondering if Dexter would try to keep his distance. Everything came together nicely and there’s an interesting race to see who’s going to get Trinity first and it looks like the police might be the first to do it. Dexter is ... Read More

Fringe – S02E08 – August Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

I'm still trying to wrap my head around this episode. "August" was an interesting episode, but it lacked the punch that I was expecting to eventually come. I somehow expected a big reveal and it never happened. "August" centered on a group of people we know relatively little about: The Observers. We really only knew of one coming into this episode, but "August" let it be known that there are several of them, each tasked with observing people and events. One ... Read More

Fringe – S02E07 – Of Human Action Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

"Of Human Action" had several of the elements that I enjoy in Fringe, but the fact that I was able to figure out that Tyler was behind his own kidnapping really hurt this episode. There wasn't a whole lot of mystery behind it. Every time something crazy happened Tyler was right there. It was clear that the supposed kidnappers were just there for the ride, so to speak. Perhaps my favorite part of this episode was witnessing Walter's reactions to the thought ... Read More

Monk – S08E15 – Mr. Monk and the End, Part 1 Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

I knew going into this Friday's Monk that the episode was going to be good - I wasn't expecting it to be this good, however. There weren't many punches pulled. The episode started off with a fairly ominous vision of Trudy. Adrian was awoken by the sight of his beloved wife who told him that they'd soon be seeing one another. To me, this meant that Adrian would soon be dead. I enjoyed the scene which followed this. It was ... Read More

Dexter – S04E09 – Hungry Man Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

Wow! This was definitely an interesting Thanksgiving for any episode I’ve ever seen which saw Dexter really get to know Trinity and his family. Let’s just say that there are definite cracks in Arthur Miller’s family. I still find it hard to believe that Arthur hasn’t found out that Dexter is following him. Dexter has sat outside a several times this season with Arthur unaware, but that’s besides the point. This week Dexter infiltrates the family and realizes that Trinity’s family ... Read More

The Office – S06E11 – Shareholder Meeting Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

It’s weird how The Office can pack so much into a 30 minute episode and then it packs so little. I have to say that I did like this episode, but this was probably one of the least funny episodes ever. I’m having trouble figuring out if I like this storyline very much. Sure it’s realistic and very relevant to what’s going on today, but when have you ever heard someone say that they like The Office for its realistic storylines? This week’s episode ... Read More
