June 3-9 Weekly Recap

With the regular television season over, I've had time to watch great shows I've been meaning to catch like Charmed and Dharma & Greg. I've also been trying summer reality series like Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List and Criss Angel Mindfreak.

Best Episode of the Week: The second part of the Doctor Who finale was even better than the first. It was near perfect and drew a 4 1/2 out of 5. Also, I know it didn't air this week but I rewatched the Buffy episode "Halloween" and it was still as good as its first airing.

Worst Episode of the Week: There weren't any really weak episodes this week except for the terrible NBC disaster telefilm 10.5 Apocalypse, which I finally got around to on tape and wished I wouldn't have bothered.

Find of the Week: I was a little skeptical about Windfall going in. I loved the idea behind the show but I was worrying that NBC dumped it in the summer because it stunk. While the pilot didn't exactly blow me away, I saw a whole lot of potential in it. The stories told are some of the most intriguing ones I've seen in awhile. Please tune in and give this deserving show a chance. I think you'll like what you see.
