Doctor Who: The Name of the Doctor Review by Kimberly McCall, Contributing Writer
(May 24, 2013)
The only thing that upset me about this week’s “Doctor Who” finale, “The Name of the Doctor” is the fan base being upset that they weren’t delivered the Doctor’s actual name, like the title suggested. Clearly, such people have no idea what it

Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season 6 Clip by Robert T. Trate , News Editor

Defiance: Brothers in Arms Review by Chuck Francisco, Columnist and Critic
(May 22, 2013)
Defiance goes a bit darker in this week's outing and is a better experience overall for having gone there. A fugitive/bounty hunter episode was as inevitable as the morning sunrise. No self respecting western genre mash up is complete without at least one

Bates Motel: Midnight Review by Michael Henley, Contributing Writer
(May 21, 2013)

GAME OF THRONES: SECOND SONS Review by Jarrett Kruse, TV Critic
(May 21, 2013)
Anytime I feel a lull in Game of Thrones it just keeps plugging away. Against the ropes but still on its feet. The show is like Rocky Balboa in ROCKY where he just keeps getting up and Apollo Creed is baffled at his opponents drive to go the distance. I ha

(May 20, 2013)
Here is the official Fox promo for Sleepy Hollow. Now we usually slam Fox for a series that looks good but won’t last too long. This is not one of those shows. This looks like it won’t last past 3 episodes. Nothing here looks original or scary.

Here is the preview of the next episode of Game Of Thrones. Remember that there is no new episode next week. The next episode, “The Rains of Castamere”, premieres June 2nd, only on HBO. All this is a big tease as after that episode there is only one ep

(May 19, 2013)
In a series that has become known for having season finales that end with a cliffhanger, this one was the,ummm…cliffhangiest! Crowley is continuing to go after those whom the Winchesters have saved and now targets Jody Mills, an old flame of Bobby’s.

(May 17, 2013)
S.H.I.E.L.D. has been a fixture in the Marvel Universe since its creation by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby back in 1965 in the pages of Strange Tales #135. Always a background, second tier title, S.H.I.E.L.D. gained prominence when it began to be featured in th

Revolution: The Longest Day Review by Chuck Francisco, Columnist and Critic
(May 16, 2013)
Is this an episode of Revolution so compelling that I longed for it to continue well past the sixty-minute mark? After you've checked my temperature and examined me for alien mind control devices (watch those roving fingers!) it's time to accept that this
