Look at this thing. It's an Echidna. Nobody would know what an Echidna was without the internet and this adorable pudding would be tossed over a cliff at birth, like so many Spartan babies lacking the mandatory six-pack. So let's take a coffee-break or two to frolic in all the bountiful goodness of … [Read more...]
Merlin: The Dark Tower – Dork Review
This week, Merlin chills out with Stephen King's Dark Tower novels for the entire length of the episode, whilst Arthur comically blunders about the place, wondering where his servant has gone. Hijinks ensue. Neither Morgana nor Mordred appear. Obviously, that (mostly) isn't true. But what does … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Killer Within – Dork Review
It feels like The Walking Dead has been taking those “too boring!” criticisms to heart, as this year they’re determined not to stand still for a single second. I don’t want to say too much in this intro, but um, wow, I’m starting to get whiplash. So, another big episode then. Best get going, and … [Read more...]

The last couple of weeks have, in my opinion, been the weakest though – can they pull it back for the ending? And what … [Read more...]

Merlin: The Disir – Dork Review
After last week's slightly vacant episode, which could've happened in almost any series, Merlin hits the series five button hard this week to compensate, centring on Mordred's presence in Camelot and the looming prophecy that he will kill Arthur. What depths of depravity will this drive his loyal … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Walk With Me – Dork Review
For the last two reviews, I've found the new, tense, survival-heavy Walking Dead season 3 a vast improvement, and dreaded the inevitable onset of quieter episodes. That day is here already, guys. This week, we ditch the regular cast to focus on Andrea and new character Michonne encountering the … [Read more...]

You know how it is: sometimes you're the cat, sometimes you're the plastic miniature jockey. Whatever your incarnation over this past working week, rest your weary paws/rein-claws and slather yourself in some choice linkage. Happy accidents These uplifting comments from the wonderful Bob … [Read more...]
