Bones - 8.23 The Pathos in the Pathogens

The remains of an investigative blogger are found mixed in with veterinary bio-hazardous waste after she apparently died from an infection.

Seven out of ten.

I think I would liked this episode more if I didn't spend most of it yelling at the characters to put on more protective gear - especially goggles.

The Vampire Diaries - 4.19 Pictures of You

The Salvatore brothers plan to force Elena to reclaim her emotions. Elijah tests Rebekah's commitment to becoming human again. Bonnie has trouble coming to grip with Jeremy's death. Mystic Falls holds Senior Prom.

Six out of ten.

I just felt bored during most of the show.

The Following - 1.14 The End is Near

Joe plans to leave the cult compound as the FBI is closing in.

Six out of ten.

I find Joe less interesting the more erratically he behaves.

Why would police doing the door-to-door not be familiar with the appearance of known cult member? And I won't even mention the stupidity of no screening for suspects, IDs or apparently weapons at the evacuation centre.

Doctor Who - R7.09 Hide

Clara and the Doctor try to discover the cause of the haunting of Caliburn House.

Seven out of ten.

Seriously, "Hide" hasn't been used a Doctor Who episode title before?

"Every lonely monster needs a companion" - wasn't that essentially the lesson of the Ninth and Tenth Doctors?

Doctor Who - R7.08 Cold War

Clara and the Doctor end up in 1983 aboard a Soviet submarine which has an Ice Warrior aboard.

Seven out of ten.

Castle - 5.21 The Squab and the Quail

Beckett ends up providing protection to a brilliant and charming billionaire inventor after a member of his dinner party is poisoned by mistake.

Seven out of ten.

This episode seemed like primarily set-up for the season finale.

Doctor Who - R7.07 The Rings of Akhaten

After the Doctor investigates Clara's childhood, Clara and the Doctor visit The Rings of Akhaten.

Eight out of ten.

Lost Girl- 3.11 Adventures in Fae-bysitting

Bo and Kenzi end up in suburbia when they take a case brought to them by a babysitter after she experiences missing time.

Six out of ten.

Do all book clubs in supernatural shows turnout to be covens?

Continuum - 2.01 Second Chances

Things change after the explosion.

Seven out of ten.

I'm not sure I like the rebooting of the series.

Doctor Who - R7.06 The Bells of Saint John

The Doctor searches for Clara Oswald as select human minds are being uploaded via Wifi.

Seven out of ten.

I rather doubt there is a British 24-year-old alive who doesn't know about the Internet.

Defiance - 1.01 Pilot

33 years after an alien armanda of arc ships appeared in the sky of earth, humanity and seven species of aliens try to rebuild a war torn and terraformed Earth. Arkfall scavengers, Nolan and Irisa, end up in the independent town of Defiance that has be built on the ruins of St. Louis.

Seven out of ten.

Interesting enough to tune in again despite the formuliac elements of the pilot.
