“Lost” Recap: Episode 4.13-4.14

Here’s what I want to do: I want to find all those Lost fans that checked out halfway through Season 2, complaining about the lack of progress on the show, and then present them the two-hour season finale of Season 4 that just aired. Because ladies and gentlemen, more things happened in those two […]

But not here. Apologies for that.
But there’s plenty more to digest all the same.

Lost Recap: Episode 4.12

During the last commercial break of tonight’s episode, I looked over at my wife, who sat there with a look on her face like she’d just swallowed 15-year old Dharma crackers. I asked her if she liked the episode, to which she replied, “It’s just…suffocating.” And with that description, she pinpointed what I’d been […]

Reaper Recaps: Droppin’ ‘Em As If They Were More Than Lukewarm

Somewhere along the lines I just stopped posting my recaps of the show here on the sight, even though I’ve been writing them up for the past few weeks.
Consider this link a makeup for that oversight. The first 25 of you to click over get free beer. Promise. Sorta.

Battlestar: Galactica Recap: Episode 4.6

The majority of this week’s edition of Battlestar: Galactica boiled down to monologue by the Hybrid. Very little else of major consequence happened in this episode, although there were some lovely character moments setting Roslin up for her major story arc to come. That arc is also described/predicted in the Hybrid’s speech, so let’s get […]

Lost Recap: Episode 4.11

Well, kids, did you catch “Cabin Fever”? (The only prescription? More Dharma cowbell!) I’m tempted, based on the last line alone, to give this episode a review akin to a 13-year old girl reviewing the latest Jonah Brothers’ CD, with the caps lock on and variation text-message based superlatives liberally peppered into the recap. […]

Battlestar Galactica Recap: Episode 4.5

More than any episode this season on Battlestar: Galactica, “The Road Less Travelled” felt like a stop-gap, a place-holder, a way to get people into psychological frameworks for the actions yet to come. This is all fine and well, but considering the second episode of the season also sought to do this, it’s all a […]

Lost Recap: Episode 4.10

I know what you were thinking, Lost fans. You were sitting there, with your remote control, your beverage, your bowl of popcorn, and you were thinking, “Bai Ling better be nowhere near this flash forward.” Luckily, your fears didn’t come true, but while “Something Nice Back Home” was miles better than “Stranger in a […]

Battlestar Galactica Recap: Episode 4.4

It’s no surprise that the follow-up to last week’s episode of Battlestar: Galactica dealt with empty spaces. After all, last week ended with Cally ending up in the vacuum of space. And in the aftermath of Cally’s apparent suicide, everyone onboard the Galactica were dealing with their own personal vccuums. Their voids.  And how they […]

Lost Recap: Episode 4.9

Because I’m a card-carrying member of the Lost Recappers Association of America (better known as LRAA), I’m on a special email list with a direct pipeline to the producers of Lost. Sadly, it’s a one-way communication system, sorta like how it is between Jacob and those he deems fit to summon and/or terrify. So […]
