Being Human – Series 3 Episode 3 Just a quick update on last weeks episode of Being Human, Type 4. After having new Werewolves show up in episode 1 and a new Vampire in episode 2 what could we have in episode 3 but a new Ghost? Well not quite. This Ghost had a body, [...]

Another great episode of Being Human was shown last Friday on ABC2. Episode 2 of series three, the cleverly titled Adam’s Family, saw a new teenage vampire Adam, show up. He was slovenly and horny and kept hitting on Annie and Nina. His father had just died in the hospital and George and Nina decided [...]

The recent long running saga on City Homicide almost all got resolved last week. We found out that the Cricketer falsely jailed for killing his wife, went on a killing spree, once he was sprung. But I don’t think he could have killed the journalist played by Claire van der Boom, as I am pretty [...]

Being Human is back on Australian TV, it made a triumphant return to ABC2 last night. All our old friends were back Annie (Leonora Critchlow), Mitchell (Aidan Turner), George (Russell Tovey) and Nina (Sinead Keenan) and so was the dark humour, in abundance. Mitchell, George and Nina moved into a new home, an old Hotel [...]

ABC Friday night Drama The Silence, Collision and U Be Dead were three British mystery/drama shows that were shown on the ABC on Fridays at 8:30 in recent weeks.

The movie Babel was released in 2006 and was aired on SBS on Saturday night. Babel stars Brad Pitt and Australia‘s own Cate Blanchett. In this case ‘stars’ is kind of the wrong word,  although they play the central characters of the story, they probably have less than a quarter of the running time on [...]

Cancer claims the life of great British actor I was sorry to read about the passing of Pete Postlethwaite. This great British actor was the star of many British and American films, as well as heaps of British TV shows. He was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in the movie of In [...]

Dreamcatcher was released in cinemas in 2003 and was aired on Australian TV in the very early hours of Sunday morning. And to be honest this was where it belonged. Dreamcatcher has to be one of the strangest films I have ever seen. The film is based on a Stephen King novel and stars some [...]

This episode had an interesting start, with Kurt getting bullied and Sue, currently the principal, doing nothing about it. Then her Mother turned up, because she is planning to marry herself? Her mother was played by Carol Burnett. This was probably the longest start of any episode without a song and when it came the [...]

Grilled Cheesus / Duets / The Rocky Horror Glee Show I’ve neglected the Gleeks and Gleesters recently, so I thought it was time for a catch up on the episodes shown so far since my last review. After a weak start to the second series, with the first episode just establishing some story lines and [...]
