BSG – No Spoilers

Friday, March 20th, 2009
Tags:

A few quibbles here and there, but on the whole, I was very pleased with the ending of Battlestar Galactica. A few questions were not answered to my perfect satisfaction, but then I’m kind of dense sometimes anyway, so maybe I just missed the answers. It was far more closure than I was expecting. And [...]

Tin Man, Part One

Sunday, December 2nd, 2007

Just finished watching Part One of the Sci Fi Channel’s miniseries, Tin Man.  Despite some less than clever plot elements, an alarmingly lackluster performance by the usually very talented Zooey Deschanel, and a tendency for the villains to employ just the right amount of stupid to set themselves up for a really obvious fall, I [...]

Vote for Journeyman!

Friday, November 30th, 2007

Seriously, Journeyman is one of the best new shows this season.  I’ve never been too keen on time travel dramas (Quantum Leap didn’t do much for me, nor did Daybreak), but Journeyman really is outstanding.  It has its flaws, sure, but the focus on the character driven drama and its steadfast refusal to descend into [...]

So far this season…

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

Monday:Chuck hasn’t yet caught me.  I’ve stopped recording it on our DVR and have been watching it online at NBC’s website.  I’m not entirely sure what it is about this show that’s bugging me.  Maybe it’s just that it’s geared more for gaming nerds than nerds like me, those that I sort of think of [...]

Sci Fi Meanderings

Thursday, September 6th, 2007

Via Slice of Sci Fi, I found a rumor that is bound to upset, shock, and dismay up to half a dozen people worldwide:  Flash Gordon, despite a plan for a two-season arc, will probably not be renewed past the first season on the Sci Fi Channel.  As someone who has seen plenty of my [...]

Who Wants to be a Superhero: Feedback

Friday, August 31st, 2007

If you know anything at all about the Sci Fi Channel’s series, Who Wants to be a Superhero, you know that the prize for winning is a comic book featuring the winning character, and an appearance in a Sci Fi Channel original movie.  Last year’s winner was the pretty nifty Feedback (pictured here), and I [...]

Anyone Catch Flash Gordon?

Friday, August 17th, 2007

So.  Did anyone at all catch Flash Gordon on the Sci Fi Channel this week?  Was it as bad as last week?  Is there any hope at all for salvation for this show?

Flash Gordon: An Insult to Fans and Viewers

Friday, August 10th, 2007

Just watched the Sci Fi Channel’s version of Flash Gordon. Dear sweet God in heaven that was bad. I mean, would it have been that hard to track down some actors who could, you know, freakin’ ACT?  Or a director who could have brought any semblance of life to that travesty of a script?  Could [...]

Doctor Who – Utopia

Saturday, June 16th, 2007

God save me, I LOVE this show!  With Heroes and Battlestar Galactica both on mid-season hiatus, Doctor Who is the best science fiction on television.  And even when those two shows are on the air, Doctor Who still gives them a run for their money. Some spoilers beneath the fold.
