Show and Episode title: Roswell season 1 “Pilot”
Review: Some of the lines are really cliché, the acting isn’t the best, and the storyline is predictable but the show has what a lot of others lack lately, HEART! This is a teenage sci fi show that isn’t about sex or drugs, or scandal, its about the people and how they live their lives and hold on to each other. The first episode of Roswell shows this the strongest. The connection between Max and Liz is beautiful and you forget she has a boyfriend because Max is the fairytale Prince Charming, who is an alien. Maria adds some great humor to the episode and this episode started off the series really strong.

Show and Episode title: Smallville season 1 “Pilot”
Review: Everyone knows the story of Superman, so Smallville came along and showed you the story of Clark Kent. The first episode is amazing because Clark is not Superman, in fact he doesn’t even find out till this episode that he’s an alien, he just thought he was different. It also breaks ( ... )

Show and Episode title: BSG EPISODE 4X13 - THE OATH
Review:
I came into this ep expected in to me epic, mainly because Anna told me it was going to be. S4 made me a fan of Gaeta, so seeing him turning toward what I assume to be the wrong side kind of upsets me. Still, Alessandro Julian did a great job with the character's change. It is gradual, not superficial. Richard Hatch once again did a wonderful job as Zarek. In my opinion, he is probably the best actor on this show, and it's great they were able to bring him in from the original series. After the reveal of the last cylon, I wondered what they'd do next, and the seeming mutiny of the ship gives yet another dimension to the show. I love seeing Lee and Kara working together to free the ship. It has almost a spy feel to it. And Roslin's epic speech was, of course, epic. By the end of the episode, I didn't like Gaeta, but I really liked that he got to have a special role. And of course, it's TBC so now I'm gonna go watch the next ep!

Show and Episode title: Heroes; 'Four Months Later...'
Review: Oh Heroes. I miss the first season and even the second ;_; I MISS MOHINDER (I used to have such a huge crush on him /thirteen year old girl). Anyway, I accidentally clicked the wrong link. I meant to click "Four Months Ago..." because I wanted to fangirl over Kristen Bell/Elle Bishop. I think Kristen plays an excellent psychopath with paranoid delusions js js. But here's this ep instead ( ... )

Show and Episode title: FlashForward, 1x18 : Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Review:This is by far my favourite episode of FlashForward, and it has so little John Cho in it, so that is really saying something. Janis Hawk is easily my favourite character on FlashForward, and top five in general at the moment. This episode was basically all about her, and who she is, and some fabulous hair. There was a fabulous opening between her and Demetri, a flashback to their time at Quantico. It showed just how close they are. She got to be a little Sydney Bristow breaking into office buildings, no high kicks though, there is a baby to think about. There was a scene between Janis, and Mark that was really nice ( ... )
