All Creatures Great and Small: Season 4

Only a sense of duty (to the books) propels me to watch this series. I usually end up knitting.

In Bruges

Bruges as a physical manifestation of purgatory. And Farrell released from his (self-made) hell.

Knocked Up

Gender-specific views of parenting and marriage? Yup, hits the nail squarely, I'd say.

The X Files: Season 6

Best episode, so far: Dreamland II-- McKean and Duchovny doing the mirror scene from Duck Soup.

Saturday Night Fever

A poor man's Rocky or Mean Streets, with sappy music and silly dancing. (Did we really like this stuff back then?)

Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day

Oh, who cares if it's obvious what will happen-- this is one smartly shot, scripted and acted film.

MASH: Season 8

Radar leaving is kinda depressing, but it's not like they're bereft of good characters.

The Sopranos: Season 4

In future seasons, I would much prefer fewer boring episodes in the middle of the run. Why does this show have to be so inconsistent?

Pushing Daisies: Season 1

I'm proud of pop culture, how 'bout you? (I know this production designer is.)

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

Faintly ridiculous watching blinked letters being translated into English (e.g., M=D). The rest of this--phenomenal, and in case you were wondering, not boring.

Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay

Yikes, even raunchier than the last one. And scarier, and funnier, and more to the point.

The Simpsons: Season 5

Yes, we recognize how funny this show is, but we can't sit through more than 2 episodes without falling asleep.

The Great Debaters

Why can't Denzel win an Oscar for something like this instead?
