How come the AVClub has never bothered to delve into the much superior miniseries "Jekyll"?

Holo-Suites never quite made sense to me… I mean, no matter how good the holograms are or how solid they feel, they are still generated in a room that seems rather small. Yet in TNG we got programs running that seemed to generate entire cities (Or at least several blocks worth of them)… so how did the characters move…
I honestly never heard of this show before, but it sounds intriguing. And it's on netflix so there is no reason not to give it a viewing…
Hmmm… A new version of "Lost in Space"… This might sound nutty, but that could work. I mean, the first season of the old show actually was kinda good and it might be sort of fun to try something like that… And we don't have any Star Trek on the air right now, so we might as well get some people in a space ship and…
My problem is that when it comes to these types of show I always want "The next Buffy"… I have yet to get that. I think Whedon may have ruined genre TV for me for a long long time. The only one I have seen that even came close was a few flashes of that type of writing in the UK version of "Almost Human". But even…
It is? I didn't notice. I shall have to give it a perusal!
You know, this show actually sounds intriguing… I wish it would show up on Netflix so I could give it a try. It sounds like a show that has a lot going for it but hasn't quite made all the pieces fire correctly on a regular basis yet. But if it does get all its ducks in a row, I think it might be a really fine little…
This isn't really about the Livestrong foundation - they do a lot of good. This is about a man that knowingly cheated, knowingly lied about it for years and actually engaged in character defamation of those that said otherwise.
You know, it's true - season 8 was a mess. But in all honesty, season 9 has been at the very least pleasant and sometimes actually good… I'll be sad to see this show go.
Why is Randy Jackson still on the show? I mean, doesn't that guy have anything else at all going on with his life?
And I have to say… I am probably in the tiny minority here but I reached the end of my tolerance for deep explorations of Klingon culture roughly 3 seasons into TNG. It's nice to see Klingons fleshed out of course but I would have preferred to see Vulcans and the other major races have the same level of attention…
I haven't seen "Little Green Men" in years but as I remember I was never overly impressed by it. I was never actively hateful of it but it always struck me as the average Star Trek "comedy" episode - kinda stilted and not nearly as funny as it thought it was. There is one series highpoint coming and it involves…
You know, it's fascinating that one of the worst White House oriented TV shows ever (1600 Penn) shows up on TV at the same time that the best one (The West Wing) showed up on Netflix. It's like someone at NBC wanted to remind people how that type of show was done right…
I tried watching it once… To be honest I didn't see anything that brought me back to it. Same with "Two and a Half Men".
You know, it strikes me that there was a point where this type of relationship started being handled rather well in genre TV - witness the way Buffy the Vampire Slayer handled Willow and Tara at roughly (Within a few years) of this episode… At one point, the thrust of the story would have been "It's a lesbian…
So, season one popped up on Netflix and I tried it out… You know, perhaps the reason this season is doing less well in the ratings is because, well, as far as I can see nothing makes much sense in the show. And I am not talking about the good version of "Doesn't make sense" (aka "Twin Peaks season 1") - I am talking…
"That gives Jake the opportunity to head back to the treehouse, where BMO is jumping on Finn’s stomach and singing about bread"
I'm not big on Fringe… It feels a tad too much like "CSI with Gizmos" to me. I realize that the X-Files and Fringe have a huge overlap, but I could ever quite get into it.

I don't remember when I wandered away from the X-Files to be honest - Long before these episodes, I know that. Not sure what did it for me, other than the sense that it just wasn't going anywhere. I went to the first movie when it came out and rather enjoyed it. And I remember watching season 5 but it felt, right…
