Heroes Season 3

*****

 When pretty much anyone can time travel or resurrect themselves, where is the drama and the tension? After a brilliant first season and a patchy second one, this poor third one feels like the last gasps of writers who are out of ideas.

Doctor Who (Turn Left)

*****

Whew, after a couple of ropey episodes, we are back to ultra-high-quality Doctor material. It's this kind of "big" story that always gets me going. Next week will be huge! This is all about choices and consequences. The Doctor and Donna are in a...

Doctor Who (2008, S04E01)

*****

The previews of "Partners in Crime" had me worried but they were wrong, a great fun episode to launch the new series. My biggest concern, Catherine Tate, turns out to be a pleasant surprise and I think she'll fit in well. The plot is one of the more...

Torchwood (Exit Wounds, S02E13)

*****

Wow, they pulled it off, absolute highlight of the season. Utterly riveting, feelings of sadness, empathy and loss. Why can't they deliver at this level all the time. But no cliffhanger? Captain John's first appearance in the show was silly, high camp...

Torchwood (Fragments)

*****

Not sure what to make of this one. Distinct signs of budget running out completely but great twist at end. Team (except Gwen) investigate alien activity in deserted building. It blows up. History of each joining Torchwood then shown. The premise was a...

Comfortable divey bar out by the ocean in San Francisco. Great fireplace, beautiful bartenders, friendly regulars, and they often have free live music.

When Will There Be Good News? by Kate Atkinson

famron

Mildly entertaining, not as enjoyable as her last #book, One Good Turn. And it is darker, maybe that's the problem.
