Surgeons (RTE, 2008)

*****

Another wonderful documentary series from RTE set in a hospital. This is what real reality TV is all about. Hope, joy, fear and sadness in every moment. The successes of the operations balanced against the broken health system. Each week the focus on...

Lost Season 4 Finale

*****

While still one of the most enjoyable shows on tv in my opinion, this finale did not have quite the impact of last years. Nevertheless, there was plenty action here mixed with some emotional scenes which, thanks to good acting, did not resort to cheesy...

Dirty Sexy Money

*****

I started off liking this and hoped it would go in a particular direction but it's degenerated badly after only four episodes. The focus on the bimbos and nitwits is very annoying. The interesting characters are Tripp and his wife. Even the Senator son who likes trannies could have some decent story lines if they tried. Initially the priest son had potential too. But it has all been squandered by turning them into incredibly boring caricatures. Who, apart from Hollywood execs, would think that anyone else would find rich self-obsessed spoiled brats interesting?

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...

Willie's Wonky Chocolate Factory

*****

Despite missing the first episode of this Channel 4 documentary series, episodes 2 and 3 have made great viewing. Willie bought a Venezuelan plantation a decade ago and this documentary shows his efforts to convert the cacao harvest from beans to a...

*****

Have recently started watching this legal thriller series which is showing on Monday nights on BBC1. Have been well impressed so far. It began with a bloodstained woman running panicked out of an apartment building and then returns to 6 months...

Guerrilla Gourmet, Series 1 Episode 3, RTE

*****

After a not so good start to this series, I enjoyed this episode as it was less gimmicky, more food and chef focussed.
