(Season 2, Episodes 20-22) Season two is over, and it would seem that quite a few people think I’ve seen all the Veronica Mars that’s worth seeing. I’m too curious, though, so I’ll be giving season three a chance. Overall, I didn’t think that season two was quite as tight as season one. The ending […]

(Season 3, Episodes 9-11) Still chugging along; if only more shows were as consistently inventive and entertaining as Buffy the Vampire Slayer. FOX recently said they intend to let creator Joss Whedon just be Joss in the new season of Dollhouse, rather than interfere like they did with Firefly. Maybe they went back and watched Buffy […]

We’re actually coming to the end of season 2 here. There’s a lot of action in the last two episodes, and we get a pretty interesting resolution to the whole Carla storyline. I wouldn’t necessarily call it a satisfying resolution, but it was interesting. In the meantime, we get a secret fiancee, an aborted trip […]

(Season 5, Episode 12 – Series Finale) There have been a lot of great finales over the course of television history. I’m not going to make this post a discussion of the best of them. However, one of my all time favorite finales was for Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It wasn’t that it was an […]

(Season 2, Episodes 18-21) Not a mention of The X-Files “MythArc” throughout these four episodes. No sightings of the Cigarette Smoking Man, nor Skinner. The closest we got was animal abductions, which may or may not have been extraterrestrial. But it didn’t matter. These were some good yarns. As an anthology horror series, The X-Files […]

(Season 2, Episodes 1-4) Lots of big cases, and lots of questionable ethical, and legal, maneuvering. I’m amazed that Bobby (Dylan McDermott) hasn’t gotten his ticket pulled yet, or at least been suspended. His firm seems bent on breaking the law, a pretty broad step away from the traditional bending that most law firms on […]

(Season Two, Episodes Four, Five, and Six) I had a short conversation with Julia last night about the stereotypes that show up on House (immediately following the smack-down I received in our … er … “conversation” about politics in network television). Each of the doctor’s on House’s team fit a common archetype: a Florence Nightingale, […]
