TV Review: Inconsistent Season Premiere For Syfy Hit ‘Warehouse 13’
Submitted by BrianTT on July 23, 2012 - 2:06pmCHICAGO – Syfy relaunches two of their biggest hits tonight with the fourth season premiere of “Warehouse 13” followed by the second season premiere of “Alphas.” While the latter starts strong enough to presume that the show’s sophomore outing will be vastly improved over its first year, “Warehouse 13” opens with a clunky affair, one that doesn’t really hit the right beats and somehow finds a way to waste the great Brent Spiner, as difficult as that is to do.
Blu-Ray Review: Disappointing ‘Outcasts’ Not Worth Your Time
Submitted by BrianTT on August 22, 2011 - 2:17pmCHICAGO – With so much great science fiction on the tube now from masterpieces like “Being Human” and “Torchwood” to enjoyable diversions like “Warehouse 13,” it’s one of the best times to be a fan of the genre. And so when a piece with a brilliant premise, talented ensemble, and high production values like “Outcasts” comes along, it’s tempting to assume that it will deliver on its potential like so many of its colleagues. “Outcasts” is nothing but a string of rising disappointments.

TV Review: Disappointing ‘Alphas’ Debuts on SyFy Network
Submitted by BrianTT on July 11, 2011 - 3:12pmCHICAGO – SyFy’s “Alphas” might have been a reasonable excuse for summer entertainment five years ago but we’ve seen too many shows like it in the last few to give this disappointment a pass. Remember the later seasons of “Heroes”?
TV Review: Fan Favorites ‘Eureka,’ ‘Warehouse 13’ Anchor SyFy Line-Up
Submitted by BrianTT on July 11, 2011 - 3:00pmCHICAGO – SyFy brings back two of their hits tonight, July 11th, 2011, for brand-new seasons of wacky behavior with an unusual twist. “Eureka” and “Warehouse 13” have a lot in common with their charming, handsome leads, quirky senses of humor, and unique storylines. They’re both about Area 51-esque places that we’re not supposed to know about and the people who keep them under control. For me, there’s an obviously superior program of the two, the best and most successful show currently on SyFy, but I’m sure fans will be happy to have both back for the summer season.
