reviews by genre
Ellen: The Complete Season Four (review)
The surface is still a lot of goofy crap, but the subtext is a sneaky and unexpected stroll through the dilemmas of modern feminism.
Pride and Prejudice: 10th Anniversary Limited Collector’s Editor (review)
It’s still all heaving bosoms and handsome men in uniform and Darcy smoldering and smirking his way through insufferable country balls and Elizabeth being efforlessly witty and clever…

Threshold: The Complete Series (review)
Smart, subtle, provocative, thoroughly absorbing…
Eleventh Hour (review)
None of it is really science fiction, but it will appeal to fans of the genre, as well as those of mysteries, thrillers… hell, to anyone who loves enthralling TV.
Flyboys (review)

Am. Moved.

Words cannot do justice to the series’ wild humor and expansive exuberance…
The Adventures of Chico and Guapo: The Complete First Season (review)
Frantic and frequently fierce under its laid-back facade, this is some quality funny business.
Supernatural: The Complete First Season (review)
Now, there’s taking geeky stuff seriously, and then there’s being so damn earnest that someone deserves a smack.
