I’ll save you the suspense: Dollhouse still isn’t quite the show it could be. But this week, with the twisty and intriguing episode “Grey Hour”, it got one step closer. Along with the second episode, “Grey Hour” felt like a well-conceived and well-executed mission-of-the-week. The plot was this: Echo was sent out as “Taffy,” a […]

Sometimes I think my opinions of Battlestar Galactic episodes are as schizophrenic as Starbuck on her mission to Earth. For example, last week I complained that it focused on Starbuck’s very messed up psyche at the expense of action scenes and big reveals.

At this point, 3 episodes into the reunion of the class of […]
You got me back. About once a year, when I’ve given up on Lost, showrunners Damon Lindeloff and Carlton Cuse pull me back with an unexpected and wonderful episode. This week was that episode for me. I was never a Sawyer fan. I liked him well enough but could not understand why he was everyone’s […]
Your average TV fan is probably aware of Guys & Dolls. For one thing, the 1992 revival starred Peter Gallagher (also known as The OC’s Sandy Cohen) and the iconic Nathan Lane.
