First Impressions: Chuck, Heroes, and Journeyman

September 24, 2007 by Dave

I caught NBC’s Monday premieres tonight: the series premieres of Chuck and Journeyman, and the season premiere of Heroes. Here’s my quick thoughts: Chuck was a lot better than I was expecting. It’s not the out and out comedy that the commercials make it out to be, but it was very well directed (by McG, […]

Inq. of the Week: Science Fiction/Fantasy Fall Shows

Launch Veritech Fighters!

September 7, 2007 by Dave

With Transformers already out and Voltron being fast-tracked, is that the end of movie remakes of 80’s tv shows about giant robots? No, of course not: not while Robotech lies untapped.
