Eureka Series Finale


17 Jul

My senior year of high school two of my favorite shows had their series finales- Quantum Leap and Star Trek: The Next Generation. I recorded both and watched them multiple times. That final episode of Quantum Leap never fails to make me cry.

Since then, I haven’t cared much about the coming and goings of shows. I liked Buffy and Firefly, but I wasn’t attached, so to speak. Last night was the series finale ofEurekaon Syfy. I haven’t watched faithfully for the last couple of seasons, but we made sure to tune in last night to say goodbye.

Finished watching the last season of BattleStar Gallactica on Netflix last night. Overall the show was really well done. I remember how hooked I was during the first two seasons, how it was must watch television.

But this fourth and final season, it seemed like they were trying to do too much, like they had a ton of story ideas and instead of concentrating on the best ones, they decided to throw them all in there. Heck, the mutiny could have been a season (or a summer web series, like New Caprica) all on its own. Instead, barely two episodes.

Movie Review: Knights of Bloodsteel


18 Oct

I know it’s true that there is no such thing as a truly original story. And I know the classic tropes are classics for a reason; still, it would be nice if people could try and inject a little originality into their characters.

Knights of Bloodsteel was a 2 part Syfy event, lasting somewhere between 3-4 hours long. The story itself wasn’t bad, but every single character was a classic trope, and a badly written one at that. (Nor was the acting great.) But really, did the loner swordsman who was “not from these lands” really need a Scottish accent?
