Plus, 'Game of Thrones,' 'The Avengers' are winners
Next week, HBO's "Game of Thrones" will find out how it will do against other non-genre shows at the Primetime Emmys. But at least for now, it has something else it can cheer about: Four Portal Award wins, including its second consecutive Best Series/Television. The winners of the 2012 Airlock Al ...
Read MoreThe Word of God revealed
This review may contain spoilers As the boys begin to hammer on Dick's clay block without any particular regard for the durability of its contents, a massive (global?) lightning storm begins, sort of syncing with the hammering. They ignore this blatant supernatural warning. As they reveal the ...

This review may contain spoilers Demon Meg (Rachel Miner) gets all the best lines ("I believe in the little tree topper." and "That was beautiful, Clarence.") as Castiel (Misha Collins) reappears in order to save Sam (Jared Padalecki). Sam's issues, though, incessant "noise" from Lucifer (Ma ...

Read MoreIf imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, then the 'Back to the Future' series should feel very flattered
I kept looking for the silver DeLorean and the clock tower. To say that “Frontierland” borrowed elements from the “Back to the Future” series would be the biggest understatement since Noah said, “It looks like rain.” Dean (Jensen Ackles) and Sam (Jared Padalecki) somehow convince Cast ...
Read MoreThe CW gives an early green light for both genre shows
"The Vampire Diaries" and "Supernatural" are retuning to The CW for another season. As the network's top-rated drama, "The Vampire Diaries" received an early green light for a third season that came with little surprise.

Read MoreApparently, not even Angels could have saved the Titanic.
This review may contain spoilers. Sometimes, a short description fails to do an episode justice. Balthazar (Sebastian Roche) goes back in time and keeps the Titanic from sinking, and people who never should have been born start dying horrible deaths. It sounds really stupid when it is explained l ...
Read MoreThe CW series finally jumps the shark!
This review may contain spoilers. After some of the weaker episodes of this sixth season, I have commented that it appears that the writers of this series are clearly running out of ideas.
