Have you heard about this Battlestar Galactica thing? Apparently it’s a little show on the Sci Fi Channel, something the network is trying to drum up interest in — it seems no one is watching. So Sci Fi paraded out the show’s creators and stars in New York City on Tuesday night, I guess hoping … more…
The Sci Fi Channel threw this big bash in New York last night, and I was there. It was kind of an “upfront,” which is when a network invites a bunch of journalists and a bunch of advertisers and plies them with booze and lets them meet stars and tells them why the network is … more…
(previous: “Termination for Cause”) See, I was right about Beck: he’s totally pissed off about Goetz’s death because it’s a symbol of lawlessness. “You’re not a judge,” he tells Jake when Jake takes the blame — Beck feels, and rightly so, that it was not the place of the Rangers in a lawful society to … more…
(previous: “Oversight”) Holy crap. I mean: Ho. Ly. Crap. Stanley? I wouldn’t have expected this from Stanley. He’s so gentle. But maybe those are the guys who snap when the worst happens. So — *deep breath* — Stanley shot Goetz. Executed him. For Bonnie’s murder. Wow. Ups and downs like crazy in this episode Trish … more…
(previous: “Jennings & Rall”) Okay, so I was right to fear for Bonnie. But the poor girl never even got a chance to leave town. Oh, man… Horrible way for Stanley to learn, but maybe he gets it now: that things aren’t like they used to be, that corrupt politicians and evil corporations have gone … more…
Still no news from Fox as to whether The Sarah Connor Chronicles will be renewed for next season, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t things we can be doing now to postpone Judgment Day — or prevent it entirely — as well as prepare ourselves for the possibility of having to fight an uprising of … more…
(previous: “The Demon Hand”) Man, I hate it when a network promotes a season finale as a two-hour spectacular or something and then it turns out to be just two one-hour episodes smashed up against each other. What a cheat. Well, not really — these were two pretty good episodes. But could be this is … more…
(previous: “Condor”) So, Ravenwood is Jennings & Rall’s private army, huh? How did we not see that coming? (Isn’t it chilling how the seemingly innocuous phrase “wholly owned subsidiary” has become so, you know, chilling?) Still, “this isn’t Iraq,” Eric reminds Jake. Or is it? The entirety of Jericho is so clearly a response to … more…
(previous: “Dungeons & Dragons”) Oh boy. People are talking Biblical apocalypse and robots are learning to dance. We’re doomed. We gotta be doomed if this is how it’s all going down. Man, this is a particularly grim episode — the whole ethos of the series is pretty grim, actually. Maybe not so much on the … more…
(previous: “Reconstruction”) Last spring I called Jericho the anti-24, a blatant rejection of “the kinds of values that 24 espouses — torture, paranoia, suspicion, bigotry — and it didn’t need to create some imaginary liberal paradise in which to do it.” That was sort of in the undertone of Jericho in its first season, but … more…
