Hiro and Ando were able to escape before Arthur can get them. Too bad Arthur did his damage and made Hiro a 10 year old kid! This is ... Read More

"The man with Two Brians" was not only a funny episode, but it showcased one of the more disturbing scenes I've seen in some time. The episode started with a nod to Jackass as Peter and his friends began immitating some of the crazy stunts performed on the series. Peter's stunts went a little far, putting his health in jeopardy. Brian tried to save him, but needed saving himself. Peter, what's up with your neck? From this point on, it was ... Read More

It is well known that Family Guy includes a large number of references to television shows, music, and movies, but the references aren't always ones I particularly like. This was different this week with the many references to Lost, Back to the Future, and Home Alone. With Back to the Future being one of my all-time favorite films, I really enjoyed seeing Peter riding through town on the skateboard just like Michael J. Fox. The week's episode dealt with Peter winning ... Read More

This season of Betty is probably the least consistent of the series. It’s weird that after such a downer of a ending last episode that there was no Jesse in this episode; we just had Betty back to her normal self, working around the Mode office again looking for more responsibilities around the office and in this episode, she gets it. There’s a company retreat happening with all the editors who work at Meade, meaning that Daniel, Wilhelmina, and Claire have to go. ... Read More

This episode is one of the best episodes this show could ever produce. This episode begins with Bill burying his new vampire. He had someone tag along to make sure he didn’t stake her before she could rise. It was a smart move because he had every intention of doing so. He wishes that he had the chance to because when she rose, she was a real pain. This girl reminded me of a young school girl who finally got her cherry ... Read More

This episode opens up with promise. A woman by the name of Hana Gitelman, played by Stana Katic, was able to find Ted in his little shack. She needs his help getting revenge on the organization that put needles in their necks among other things. Her power is quite unique. She is able to use satellites to communicate with people through phones and computers. Ted looks impressed and midway through the episode we find out that he took up Hana’s offer. Ted ... Read More

I’m not sure if I was in an especially giddy mood when I watched the pilot episode of Kath & Kim, but I remember laughing hysterically several times and deciding I was an instant fan. There were many clever lines and situations and I am a fan of the three principal actors, especially John Michael Higgins who I had discovered in some of my favorite Christopher Guest movies and a favorite, dearly departed show, Arrested Development. Last night, however, I found myself wondering, ... Read More

Once again Chris finds himself getting the shaft at school. He initially likes being treated well after agreeing to do the homework of the school's star running back, but becomes overwhelmed with homework help requests. It's frustrating watching Chris sometimes; he rarely stands up for himself. While Chris was spending all of his time helping out others, he neglected to maintain his own studies and ended up failing an important test, one which Greg did quite well on. I'm glad ... Read More

Much of this week's American Dad was surprisingly predictable. Stan's insecurity nearly cost him his relationship with Francine when he learned that Stan wasn't her first choice. It's sad to think that Stan would actually track down Francine's first choice to see what she missed out on and the guy seemed terrific, making Stan think that Francine settled when she chose him. Things got a little predictable when Stan tested Francine's love by leaving with Roger for a period to see ... Read More

Up to this point, the Farscape cast hasn't made very many journeys to other planets. For me, seeing other planets and the cultures there is one of the things I look forward to with science fiction shows. I like to see if the writers are capable of creating diverse cultures. Here, they did manage to visit a new planet. The most unique characteristics about the people on this planet were the bleach blonde hair and the white eyes. ... Read More
