ER - The episode where Lucy and Carter get stabbed
Battlestar Galactica - 33
The League of Gentlemen - Christmas Special
Doctor Who - The Empty Child

I like that this episode didn't focus too much on the Peralta - Holt relationship, and thus gave us more time to get to know the other characters. This show has probably got one of the best ensembles around, and it's good to see that they already know how to make good use of them. Holt reaction shots are never not

Hey, there's no such thing as bad press, right? Unless they're chasing your car in mad pursuit of a scoop, and taking pictures while you lay dying.

I'm not entirely sold yet on the show, but a pilot is rarely enough to sell me on a show. Lizzy Caplan is just great in the show, and I can see what Michael Sheen is doing, but there isn't that much to like or enjoy about his character. Masters of Sex is a type of drama that we haven't really seen the past few years,

It looks like something struck Helen Fielding, though it probably wasn't inspiration.

It was TurboChap. The home page was littered with enlightening articles such as "Five easy techniques to get any woman into your bed" and "Sexy cocktails for a night in".

"Uhm, yeah, er, [unintelligible], so, ah, er, uh, Eva."

The coroner's office has been a bit busy following the finale, so it's probably delayed.

I thought the main problem with Mitch was that "the optics are wrong", meaning that she looks too much like Amber Madison and would remind voters of the sex scandal.

Wow, the show really hit the ground running this season. If they continue like this (and the previews aren't too misleading) we're in for a really great season of The Good Wife.

No, Classic Homer.

So what's the basic idea? It is a The A-Team / McGyver rip-off: Houdini gets caught on purpose every week and then tries to escape? Houdini only investigates murders of magician's assistants and spiritualists?

It's on the whiteboard behind Terry during the morning briefing scene (right after the title sequence). I guess they both made a couple of arrests during the past week.

Why is Fausto allowed to be a weirdo, but Linder not? We haven't spent that much time with him, and I'm hoping Eva's storyline will mean we get to know him better. I like weirdo Linder.

That's not the only inaccuracy in the article. An article in the El Paso Times states that, according to the Chihuahua Attorney General, 98 women were killed in Juarez in 2008, 183 women in 2009, 325 in 2010, 196 in 2011 and 82 in the first 8 months of 2012. A fact the author seems to have conveniently overlooked, and

I'm in, as long as the "celebs" get a one-way ticket and we get to decide who gets blasted into space. Think of the possibilities!

A whipcream string bikini looks totally skanky, but a one-piece is totally classy. The more you know …

For a show that's only on its second episode and still feels the need to repeat its premise (we get it, Peralta is a good detective but a bad policeman) a lot of things are already starting to fall into place. I'm really digging Holt and Peralta and their relationship and I'm starting to warm up to Gina. The other

This show continues to have great one-liners and jokes, but I'm missing some decent character work. None of the characters, besides Mindy and Danny (and perhaps Morgan), have a clearly defined personality or multiple character traits.
The show seems to think the solution is to introduce more characters, but even those
