Thursday 10 September 2015 marked the 22nd anniversary of the premiere of a show that was going to change television forever. Yes, smarty pants, I’m referring to The X-Files. In celebration, I put back up my top ten posts from The X-Files Facebook Project, and found it à propos to post Apt. 42 Revisited’s review… Read More Apt. 42’s Review of The X-Files, Season 1, Episode 24: ‘The Erlenmeyer Flask’
Two weeks ago, I featured post from the wonderful website Apt. 42 Revisited. X-Philes of course know that’s Fox Mulder apartment number. The team of Apt. 42 has done an amazing job of putting together a review of every episode of the show that are currently available (yay for Season 10 starting in January 2016!)… Read More The M0vie Blog’s Review of The X-Files, Season 2, Episode 15: ‘Fresh Bones’
This really seems to be the year of reboots. Of course the one foremost on my mind is the upcoming X-Files revival (it’s not a reboot, guys!), but honorable mentions go to Twin Peaks, Full House, and most recently, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The timing of these rumours seems strategic, to say the least,… Read More My Hopes for the Purported Reboot of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Let’s start this review with some harsh honesty. Heroes started as a fantastic show. The acting, the directing, the pacing and, most importantly, the story – they were all brilliant. Unfortunately, like a shooting star, Heroes has lost something major in its last two seasons that it is still trying to recapture in its fourth.… Read More Book Review: Heroes: An Insider’s Guide to The Award-Winning Show by Various Authors

Regular Sahar’s Blog readers already know that this post should not be up on a Wednesday; The X-Files Facebook Project posts usually only go up once a week (Fridays at 10:13 a.m. EST). But in light of my ridiculous level of excitement at Fox’s announcement yesterday that The X-Files would be returning in a six… Read More The X-Files Facebook Project: Season 1, Episode 18: “Miracle Man”
Do you remember Kelly Kapoor from The Office? I always looked forward to seeing her on screen and wished for her to be more present, despite the fact that I found her character so gratingly annoying. It reminded me of my love-hate relationship with George Costanza on Seinfeld. It was the acting made the character… Read More TV Review: Season 1 of The Mindy Project
Fellow Fringe fan and my dear friend Monica was right; reviewing this episode was quite the trippy experience, for lack of a better word. Most of this episode was enhanced by Walter taking LSD giving this exploration of his guilt and fears a very unique taste typical of this sort of ‘special’ episode Fringe is… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 9: Black Blotter
More frustrating than looking for the pieces of a puzzle is having the pieces and not knowing what to do with them. This pretty much sums up the 10th episode of the fifth and final season of Fringe, as the team, having found the child Observer now known as Michael, tries to figure out how… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 10: Anomaly XB-6783746
One of the benefits of having only one last, shortened season is that a lot is condensed. Unlike Season 2 when for example, the storyline about Peter’s his true origin stretched out for four incredibly stressful episodes. That story began with Olivia seeing him glimmer, and ended with Peter, figuring it all out. In this… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 11: The Boy Must Live
