Being Human: Series 2

Welcome to a revelation of sorts. Being Human, built on the current rise in genre programming, is another positive example of the British renaissance in drama. The series is the story of three housemates that happen to be a ghost, vampire and a werewolf as they try to live life. It’s a human drama surrounded by supernatural elements that affect the way that they live.
At the end of the first series, werewolf George had killed … want to read more?

Mad Men Seasons One-Two

Personal history has been made. I have my first TV series on Blu-Ray, Mad Men. There should be something fitting, as of the first four episodes that I had already seen (when writing this intro), there was a slow yet beautifully shot series on display. This is a series that quite possibly deserves to be seen in the highest quality possible. Set in the 1960’s and depicting the world of ruthless cutthroat advertising, the series … want to read more?

Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season Three Retrospective

Buffy ran away in the season two finale after killing her lover and sending him to a hell dimension to stop the world being sucked into Hell. So the next season should naturally follow what would’ve happened if she’d kept running away or didn’t have that support system of family, friends or Giles. This is done by the slayer Faith, played by Eliza Dushku, and the character is one of the key arcs of the … want to read more?

Lost Season Six Premieres

And thus last Friday, Lost returned to Sky1. Not only was it a mixture of plenty of what-the-deuce mixed with mind-fraks, but also the sense of a slowly brewing conclusion on the horizon. It also gave us a twist on the flash fowards/backs/parallels or whatever they’re called.
So if you haven’t watched LAX Parts 1 and 2 yet – LOOK AWAY NOW!

Rock and Chips

One of the most successful British Sit-Coms, Only Fools and Horses followed the adventures of ‘independent trader’ Derek ‘Del-Boy’ Trotter and his younger brother Rodney as they scrimped and saved in Del’s quest to become a millionaire. The characters became part of British culture, everyone felt like they knew them. They felt a part of their lives – and grieved when Granddad died. The nation felt a huge cheer during the 1996 trilogy where the … want to read more?

The IT Crowd

Working in IT Support myself, I can automatically see a lot of the funny side of jokes and the attacks on the usual stereotypes that occur with IT. It’s also being a slight fan of geek-humour that there’s a lot of the references and hidden slight gags I can get straight away and start laughing like a loon. T-Shirts with ‘RTFM’ on it and the bemusement of people thinking the internet is a black box: … want to read more?

Skins Series Four - Speculation

The hit E4 teenage drama series returns next week, and it’s quite possibly the last of the second generation of characters. So it’s eight episodes of Effy, Cook and Freddie before they end up shutting shop. Unless they are back for a fifth…
But anyways, Skins is going for a fourth series. Will this bring the series back to the heights of its first? Or will it stumble like the sophomore series of its predecessors?

Doctor Who - The End of Time

WARNING SPOILERS. And thus it came to pass that the Doctor shall pass on the reigns to someone new. That he shalt regenerate and some other bible style verse language to create the metaphor. But in terms of this place and time, David Tennant – the tenth man to officially take up the mantle of The Doctor – is now moving on. Capturing the youth and the nation, Tennant managed to create a new science-fiction … want to read more?
