Our affiliate Fangirl Says speculates the writing may be on the wall for Fox’s Dollhouse. You can read her thoughts and comments here. (By the way, the “Josh” she mentions is Josh Whedon of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly fame. But then, if you’re reading this, you probably knew that.)
I was initially a little underwhelmed by “Bloodline.” Perhaps I’ve become spoiled from the last 4 episodes. Even though “Home” was basically a clip show, Kahlan actually told Richard she loves him. (Ok, he was comatose at the time, but it still counts!) In “Revenant” we got to see some of the sexual chemistry combust. [...]
Uh-oh. Evil Darken Rahl (Craig Parker) has captured our hero, Richard Cypher, the Seeker (Craig Horner).
I almost didn’t get to catch this episode. The local channel broadcast the Virginia high school basketball championships all weekend. Thank goodness for WGN! I would not have wanted to wait another week to catch this awesome episode.
Richard, Kahlan [...]
Y’all know I have this thing for titles, right? I had to look up “Revenant” in my dictionary. It wasn’t there. So I checked Merriam-Webster online. It means the return of someone who’s been dead, or gone a long time. Obviously, I’m gonna have to get a new dictionary.
This episode was highly [...]
I meant to start writing about Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles a couple weeks ago. But just like joining Procrastinators Anonymous, I just didn’t get around to it.
The Good
Three weeks ago, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles came back from its winter hiatus with a vengeance. The episode was titled “The Good Wound” and it was [...]
Probably not. And I say this not by looking at Life on Mars‘ (shrinking) ratings or its decreasing “Renew / Cancel” index. This theory is solely my own based on two unscientific measurements.
1. The time ABC allots for the series: When Life on Mars premiered on Thursdays behind Grey’s Anatomy last fall, it ran for [...]
I must admit, I had to play catch-up before the current fifth season started. I was a die-hard fan the first three seasons, but a few things happened that kept me away from Season Four when it originally aired. One–they had killed Charlie. Two–a horrendously long hiatus. Three–during the horrendously long hiatus, I discovered Supernatural, only [...]

After two weeks of repeats, we get a new episode that consists of… repeats. This episode is full of flashbacks. There’s a couple of my favorite scenes from “Listener”; as well as “Prophecy,” Destiny,” “Identity,” “Denna,” and “Puppeteer.” (There maybe others, too. I just lost count.) At one point I was tempted to fast-forward through [...]
I want to like this show. It has a great cast. It has tons of interesting characters just waiting be fleshed out. And yet, I’m not being pulled in. Is Sam’s penchant for crying at the drop of a hat (or, in the case of this episode, a video clip of President Obama’s inauguration) supposed [...]

What’s In, What’s Out?
News came yesterday that Fox has renewed Dollhouse but canceled Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Fox executives are saying it wasn’t an “either or” decision, but that Terminator:TSCC’s ratings fell off a bit towards the end despite Fox’s “support and some consistent scheduling.” (Source) I have to ask how is Friday night at 8:00 a [...]
