Posted by: Matthew Ardill • November 10, 2025 @ 3:22pm
David Zucker has written and directed some of the biggest comedies of all time, including Airplane! and The Naked Gun.
I know I'm sounding like a broken record now, but these castaways really are frustrating to watch! The few that seem likable aren't getting any screen time, and we're just left with a lot of whiny NaOnka, bossy Tyrone, and conceited Marty.
With Clark starting to learn how to fly, the season's big villain being showcased, and Smallville's favourite cousin (Kara Kent) returning to town, "Supergirl" had all the makings of a great episode.
When the people of a small town begin to die in biblical fashion, Sam and Dean call on an old friend for a divine intervention.
When several police officers begin to turn up dead after being affected by Egyptian plagues, the Winchester brothers look to Castiel (played by Misha Collins) to find the answers.

Where would you be if there was a North and South Texas? Or if ball-point pens and avocados were so uncommon they would be considered rare? Why, you would be watching the newest episode of Fringe, entitled "The Plateau", of course.
Deb/Oprah: "When you lose someone close, routine can be the ladder to help you climb back into normalcy."
In "Practically Perfect" Dexter (the show and person alike) seem to have gotten their groove back.
When Stefan and Damon's lives are on the line it's up to an unexpected ally to save them both in this week's episode, "Kill or Be Killed".
It's volunteer day in Mystic Falls as the opening of a new park provides Stefan with an opportunity to make peace with Mason Lockwood.
What's On Tonight? - Monday, October 11

Paul's picks for Monday night: Castle (time-travelling murderers?!), Chuck (James Effin' Bond!), and Men with Brooms (look, a friend worked on the production team).
Most blackmail plots in comedy follow a very standard formula. Person A finds out that Person B did something bad, and Person B does not want Person C to find out. This usually results in Person A blackmailing Person B, and hilarity ensues. The plot thinkens in a predictable way: Person B has had enough of the blackmail, and comes clean to Person C.
