“Emily”

Review: Journeyman 1.09 jm109

“Emily”  proves that last episode was just a time for a breather as this episode gets right into the thick of things again.  Dan goes back in time again to the time of a rave.  Coincidentally he sees the Livia of this time dancing.

It is at this rave that Dan discovers a lost girl named Emily hidden in the walls of the building.  He also discovers the “bad man” behind it all, Aeden Bennet, but he escapes before Dan goes back to the present.  In Dan’s time Emily was never found.

Review: Flash Gordon 1.21

“Revolution, Part 2″

Review: Flash Gordon 1.21 f121

The climactic finale and final battle.  Flash vs. Ming.  A season…and now as it turns out a series finale, just as the series was gaining it’s footing.  It is understandable why it was cancelled but it doesn’t make it any less unfortunate.

We continue where we left off.  Flash has freed his father but only to send him into some kind of seizure after unhooking him from the mainframe.  Upon advice from Zarkov, they shock him with an electrical current and it stops the seizure.

“Cold Day In Hell”

Review: Flash Gordon 1.19 f119

“Cold Day in Hell” starts the finale, 2 episodes early.  This is what Flash should have been all along.  The epic qualities are finally brought into play.  We open with Flash declaring that it is time to take Ming down and that it is their only option.  He can’t destroy the rift generator, so he will destroy Ming.  Making his way to the monks, he discusses the prophecies. He asks the leader to declare him the one so that the cantons would untie under him to revolt against the tyrant.

“Blame”

Review: Flash Gordon 1.18 f118

“Blame” continues building the political intrigue and sowing seeds of revolution that will happen by series’ end.  In this case, Ming was quick thinking.  After Terek took credit for sending the water to the cantons, Ming has the water poisond so everyone would turn against Terek and the Deviates.

“Ebb and Flow”

Review: Flash Gordon 1.17 f117

“Ebb and Flow” is the kind of episode that really turns a show around and show that it is indeed established.  Unfortunately in this case it seems it came way to late to save the series, but it is a good episode nonetheless.

Review: The 4400 2.08

“Carrier”
Review: The 4400 2.08 carrier8-300x169

“Carrier” has some of the main problems that many 4400 episodes have. The main story all too often becomes a subplot to the 4400er of the week. The 4400er of the week SHOULD be the subplot. This week’s 4400er is a precursor to Maia on Heroes. She is the carrier of a plague that even biohazard suits can’t stop, much to NTAC’s suffering. However it is only when she becomes emotional that the plague comes out to play.

“Til Death”
Review: Flash Gordon 1.09 f109

“Til Death” really struggles. At it’s heart it really wants to go back to the sub-mediocre crap of the first part of the season although there is just enough to elevate it to some forward moving sub-mediocre crap. It may sound damning, but there is some good to the episode.

Not enough to save a series in danger unfortunately or even the episode.

Review: Heroes 2.06 heroes206-300x169

“The Line” is a step in the right direction towards righting the ship. Not a huge step, but it is a little more quickly paced - making up for the molasses of the beginning of the season.

Claire tries out for cheerleading, knowing she can use it to cover for her budding relationship with West. Unfortunately teen bully Debbie dismisses Claire despite he being the best candidate. Another of the cheerleaders sticks up for Claire but it is not enough. When Claire is upset, West convinces Claire that they are the special ones and they should use their powers to put Debbie back in her place.
