Death takes a holiday this week, as the merry miserable of The Walking Dead head out on a couple of supply runs.

The Bestest Virus Outbreak Ever! The Walking Dead S4E3 – Dork Review
Last week on The Walking Dead, it became clear that this year’s first big threat will be a dangerous strain of the flu running rampant through the prison population.

Same dung, different week – something must change! Atlantis S1E5 – Dork Review
Last night, we heard that Atlantis has been renewed for a second series and thought “oh, interesting”. Then we watched the fifth episode and felt nothing. I’ll be honest, it’s becoming a challenge to come up with new synonyms every week for “competent but unexciting”. In this particular episode, … [Read more...]

Three men, a baby and constant farting – it’s Atlantis S1E4! – Dork Review
Last week, I finished off my review by asking why BBC One show Atlantis so late in the evening, considering it’s clearly aimed at younger viewers. This time out, the show continues to make that case for me: this is a light-hearted three-men-and-a-baby episode where farting is of massive … [Read more...]
Walking Dead characters in happiness shocker! S4E1 – Dork Review
I’ve reviewed The Walking Dead for this site since its first episode in 2010 – I have a longer relationship with this grim soap opera of death than many close friends and loved ones. No matter how dull it was when trying to be deep, regardless of my annoyance when they didn’t kill the Governor off … [Read more...]
With My Camera Eye – Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D- S1E4 – Dork Review
The Agents of SHIELD are a globe trotting bunch, that's for sure. After the Incan temples in Peru and a version of Malta that only exists in some kind of weird netherworld, this week's episode kicks off in Stockholm and takes in Belarus along the way. But what are our intrepid agents up to? … [Read more...]
Defying Graviton- Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D – S1E3 – Dork Review
Rejoice, for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D has been picked up for a full season of 22 episodes. Huzzah, but if a full season also means that we get answers to our two burning questions (Why is Coulson alive?
