TV Review: Supernatural, Season 5, Episode 14: My Bloody Valentine

Supernatural’s last episode before its six-week hiatus was nothing short of underwhelming. Don’t get me wrong; the episode was, in itself, fantastic. It wasn’t just a filler; it brought in another Apocalypse-related figure, i.e. our second Horseman of the Apocalypse, Famine. However, only die-hard fans will be left wanting more, and anxiously counting down the… Read More TV Review: Supernatural, Season 5, Episode 14: My Bloody Valentine

TV Review: Once Upon a Time, Season 1

A delectable show about the sometimes ambiguous battle between good and evil, Once Upon a Time is a retelling of classic fairy tales woven into one beautiful tapestry.  At the centre of this retelling is the concept of true love explored in a slightly more layered way one would expect of the genre, as love… Read More TV Review: Once Upon a Time, Season 1

TV Review: Supernatural Season 5, Episode 17: 99 Problems

Oh. My. God. Those were the words that rang in my head over and over as the closing credits of Supernatural’s episode “99 Problems” rolled on my screen. What a poignant ending. If he wasn’t already, this is probably the episode that forever endeared Dean Winchester to all Supernatural fans. Dean is frantically driving the… Read More TV Review: Supernatural Season 5, Episode 17: 99 Problems

TV Review: Supernatural, Season 5, Episode 16: Dark Side of the Moon

Supernatural continues its meticulous deconstruction of Dean in the 16th episode of its fifth season, “Dark Side of the Moon”. The episode’s plot is relatively simple: Sam and Dean are killed by hunters angry at Sam starting the Apocalypse. In Heaven, Sam and Dean are told by Castiel to look for Joshua, an angel who… Read More TV Review: Supernatural, Season 5, Episode 16: Dark Side of the Moon

TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 18: White Tulip

As Aaron would say, there are no plot holes in Fringe. Now while this is not always the case (and Aaron might have been a little sarcastic), “White Tulip” certainly doesn’t seem to have any plot holes, which is rather unusual for a story about time travel. It’s a normal evening; harried workers are heading… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 18: White Tulip

TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 17: Olivia. In the Lab. With the revolver.

It was one of the shortest hours on television in, well, a week. It was so short in fact that when someone mentioned there was only 10 minutes left, I checked three watches before realising that he was right – it was already 21h50 and there was only 10 minutes left in the episode. You… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 17: Olivia. In the Lab. With the revolver.

TV Review: Supernatural, Season 5, Episode 13: The Song Remains the Same

If fan forums can be trusted – and if you choose yours carefully, they can be – this was one of the most anticipated episodes of the season to date, even more so than the season’s premiere. Spoilers had come out a couple of weeks ago regarding billing in this episode, and we knew the… Read More TV Review: Supernatural, Season 5, Episode 13: The Song Remains the Same

TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 13: What Lies Below

A man walks into the offices of a petroleum company; first, his nose starts bleeding, then he starts sweating profusely, soon he becomes disoriented; a few moments later, he falls to the floor, dies, and before anyone around him can react, what looks like blood sprayed out of his mouth, falling on all those gathered around him.… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 13: What Lies Below

TV Review: Supernatural, Season 5, Episode 11: Sam, Interrupted

It’s finally back! The blogosphere, fan forums, and Tumblr have been buzzing for days; January 21 isn’t only the one-month mark after the winter solstice, but also the return of Supernatural. Obviously, expectations were high, and the episode left some people happy and many others disappointed. Personally, I am quite pleased with this episode; while… Read More TV Review: Supernatural, Season 5, Episode 11: Sam, Interrupted
