“Fringe” Recap: Season 1 Finale

May 12, 2009 – 10:54 pm

The good, the bad, the Spock. It was all there, with an episode that was good but not great, especially by the show’s increasingly excellent standards.
In short: “Fringe” has gone from “competent” to “one of the five best shows on TV” over the course of its first season, but tonight’s episode didn’t quite live up […]

“Dollhouse” Recap: Episode 1.12

May 8, 2009 – 9:59 pm

Tonight’s season (series?) finale? A letdown, to be honest. Too confusing by half, with the focus once again on the wrong characters.
Then again, when it comes to actives, “character” might not be quite the right word.
Read my full recap here.

“Lost” Recap: Episode 5.14

April 29, 2009 – 11:14 pm

With its 100th episode, “Lost” pulled out all the stops tonight with “The Variable,” a Faraday-centric episode that sought to shed light not only on his whereabouts in the past, but his purpose throughout the history of the Dharma Initiative. While the episode featured some outstanding work by Jeremy Davies and a few incredible reveals, […]

“Heroes”: An Invisible Thread

April 27, 2009 – 9:47 pm

More like an inconvenient truth that yet again “Heroes” doesn’t know how to close the deal on a Volume of its show effectively.

“Fringe” Recap: Episode 1.16

April 21, 2009 – 10:50 pm

That was some good and tasty mythology, “Fringe“. Well played.
I’d make the “Ya down with ZFT/Yea you know me!” jokes, but the missus says I go to the Naughty by Nature well too often. So you’ll have to just read my full recap to get the scoop on tonight’s must see episode.

“Lost” Recap: Episode 5.13

April 15, 2009 – 11:24 pm

For a Miles-centric episode, he was curiously the least interesting thing about the entire hour. While the events surrounding his character was generally fraught with intrigue, mystery, and more than a dash of mythology, we didn’t learn a whole lot about the man himself. The biggest thing we learned? That like 97% of the “Lost” […]
