House: Season Eight – Dork Review
The misadventures of Doctor Gregory House have been over on UK TV for a full week. He’s been grumpy, misunderstood and, to be honest, just an arse.

After eight weeks, eight reviews, multiple new housemates and, yes, a surprising amount of positivity, it’s time for the Being Human finale review. What will happen? Will it be exactly what I’ve been predicting for the past three weeks, or merely a bit like it? And, more to the point, are there … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Beside The Dying Fire – Dork Review
Phew. The second season of The Walking Dead is almost over, after a final few episodes that seemed to stem from the writers waking up and thinking: “Wait, have we killed anyone all year?
