Awkward. review – 3×19: ‘Karmic Relief’

December 11, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of MTV

Awkward.‘s super-sized third season delivers the series’ first supersized episode in the form of ‘Karmic Relief’, an hour of wit and cat iconography that’s ultimately overshadowed by a hugely predictable non-twist ending.

Sleepy Hollow review – 1×10: ‘The Golem’

December 10, 2013 by couchpotato

The Golem reminds us the golden rule of horror: never make a creepy doll with a sown-shut mouth, it will only come to life to haunt you.

Almost Human review – 1×05: ‘Blood Brothers’

December 10, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of FOX

The sci-fi tropes keep rolling as Almost Human tackles the issue of cloning in this week’s episode. Unfortunately instead of exploring the implications or morals of such an issue, ‘Blood Brothers’ is content to investigate Captain Maldonado’s (Lili Taylor) self-esteem issues.

Lost Girl review – 4×05: ‘Let The Dark Times Roll’

December 9, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Oh Bo (Anna Silk) – you didn’t really think that reversing your allegiance to the Dark would be easy, did you? Needless to say Dark Bo is here for the foreseeable future.

Grimm review – 3×06: ‘Stories We Tell Our Young’

December 7, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of NBC

A half-baked The Exorcist rip-off nearly derails the latest Grimm until the case puts Nick squarely in the center of the Wessen Council’s sights. The result isn’t a complete salvage job, but it does tease a tantalizing new direction for the show.

Scandal review – 3×09: ‘YOLO’

December 7, 2013 by couchpotato

Courtesy of ABC

YOLO the term: super douchey.  YOLO the episode: a fantastic set-up for next week’s Scandal mid-season finale. Nothing like terrorists, ruined marriages and murder to get you in the holiday mood.

The Vampire Diaries review – 5×09: ‘The Cell’

December 6, 2013 by thedude35

Courtesy of The CW

After a season that has been surprisingly mediocre so far, ‘The Cell’ reminds me why I fell in love with this show in the first place. There’s suspense, torture, some sexual tension and surprises at every turn. What more could we ask for?

December 5, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

December 5, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Storm’s brewin’! All hell is about to break loose on Arrow as a dangerous new foe emerges. Good thing an unlikely ally who is bad on his feet is fresh off the train.
