As an established fan of the series I enjoyed Razor. It was great to have a little more back-story regarding the Pegasus, the first Cylon War and Admiral Cain. The old time Cylons and Cylon Raiders were a real treat to see and beautifully rendered. That said, the lead characters of Kendra Shaw and Admiral Cain are particularly unsympathetic and very hard to like- which makes this story a little hard to really engage with. I also thought that the story had holes and inconsistencies that I would not usually associate with BSG. It was somewhat bizarre that Admiral Adama would send a whole battlestar to search for a missing Raptor. It was even more odd that he would then chose to accompany it. It was inconsistent and out of character for him to ... Read More:

Heroes is brilliant. Mythology and good comics have always been used larger than life characters to juxtapose courage and talent against doubt, vulnerability and personal struggle. Heroes nearly always alwats gets this balance right. The characters, like the beautiful cheerleader whose talent exposes her to predators, are perfectly pitched to develop these themes. Like real life and its inspiring moments, its a bit cheesy now and then. Nonetheless its heroic message of hope admid a sea of darkness is strongly conveyed. This is great popular art.

Great special effects, but not a very good story, looks like it was trying to prop up the poor storyline with the special effets and the actors.
In all a disappointing movie.

This is the best TV programme ever! This season has been completely fantastic. Everything about it is brilliant - the acting, directing, writing, storylines, special effects are all awesome.

What I love about this show is that it has a lot of variety. It has horror, comedy, action, family drama, mystery and suspense.

I can't fault the series at all and I think they coped superbly with the writers' strike. The series is 16 episodes instead of 22 but they have ended the series as it was supposed to end and I really don't think that the strike has had a negative impact at all.

I think that this is the best series of Supernatural so far but I love the first two series aswell.

It is a real shame that this show doesn't ... Read More:

i have found series three of Doctor who to be very refreshing...although there are a few duds this year it doesn't harm the show but makes the better episodes shine.
Martha Jones exceeded my expectations,as i thought that she was going to be another Rose Tyler she turned out to be a great companion and very three dimensional although lacking Roses charismatic persona she brings something new to the table,and her character is explored with depth.
eppy reviews-
the runaway bride-4/5-a very good christmas special...Catherine Tate was a breath of fresh air and was extremely entertaining tpo watch(glad she was the main companion in series 4)the Racnoss is a great creation and reminds me of the alien queen from the Alien franchise.

I loved the first Bourne film.But not this one.The storyline has got more ridiculous and the stunts plain silly as the producers try to make the action better.The dvd box says the Bourne Ultimatum is better than James Bond.The last bond film - casino royale - had better ( more dramatic) stunts and a more convincing storyline with superior acting and was one of the best action films ever made.Bourne Ultimatum isn't Bond.It isn't even Bourne.That had subtlety, credibility,unpredictability, an original storyline and original music,and likeable characters that had the chance to act properly.In Bourne Ultimatum the CIA computer operatives and their computer screens get so much airtime that the machines may as well be actors.The two main female characters gave the Bourne Ultimatum ...

It's a shame that within the 1st 10 minutes of the film you know exactly what's happen[ed/ing], take your pick.

When all your stories are told how do you tell more? Easy, you re-re-(how many times has it been in their universe?)-write the history and drive the displaced characters to sort things out. My favourite segment was probably Beau Bridge's little speech. I wont spoil it for you though. The alternate take on Jack O'Neill was fun as well if not too brief. But you wouldn't want this to be a rip-off of season 8's mis-spelt finale Moebius now would you?

All the best catch phrases have already been spoken for in the critics' appraisal of this original new series, the best of which had to be the description of the show as a surreal but inspirational blend of Tim Burton and the Tellytubbies. And without getting too carried away with an abundance of adjectives myself...it's undeniable that 'Pushing Daisies' is an awesomely lightweight guilty-pleasure for viewers of all age groups and walks of life!

This mass appeal is perhaps why the show has attained a level of acclaim that was sadly denied the creator's previous series. As a fan of creator Brian Fuller's `Dead Like Me' and `Wonderfalls' needless to say I had high hopes for his latest project and thankfully `Pushing Daisies' proves to be the wittiest and most charming, if not the deepest ...
