I won’t say I had high hopes for NBC’s Fear Itself, but I did have moderate ones. And still, I’m disappointed. After a promising beginning, the first installment of the new anthology series, The Sacrifice, quickly degraded into a melange of same-old, same-old flat characters and sad excuses for plot twists. We won’t even talk [...]
What’s Gone

The annual up fronts were presented in New York City a couple weeks ago. For those not in the know, that means that all of the networks have released their currently planned schedules for the Fall. Without a doubt, some things (like the days and times of shows) will change before September rolls around. Other [...]

Right now there’s a documentary on the Sci Fi Channel called Mystery of the Crystal Skulls. Obviously, it’s timed to coincide with the release of the new Indiana Jones movie that focuses on the mysterious and controversial crystal skulls. That movie has been mentioned a few times. Mostly, though, this has been a prime example [...]

This year, with the writer’s strike going on, there’s more chance than usual that everything on up [...]

New Season: ABC’s Pushing Daisies
October 3, 2007 By 1 Comment
Bryan Fuller is, apparently, a god among television producers. Almost every single show he’s produced, I’ve loved. Pushing Daisies is no different. Yes, the pilot felt a little uneven at times, but at its worst it was still better than most others I’ve seen. Ever. I can also fully understand why this show will quickly [...]
New Season: ABC’s Cavemen
October 2, 2007 By Leave a Comment
Well, that was unexpected. Cavemen didn’t totally suck. In fact, I think it’s the best written new sitcom I’ve seen so far this season. Even better, there’s no laugh track. This show could work even it weren’t populated with cavemen. Most of the comedy is true situation based comedy, as opposed to the all too [...]
