I thought the Trial of a Time Lord arc was the high point of Colin Baker's tenure as the Doctor...which I know isn't saying a whole lot. I mean, it wasn't very good by any means, but I think a few other shows on this list did much worse.
Earth: Final Conflict - they killed off the show's main character at the end of the first season, totally out of the blue...and then the show continued on for another four seasons.
Agree with pretty much all of these, especially shaky cam/quick cuts. I wonder if someone can come with an example of something that covers all of these trends!
I've been watching since the beginning and I initially enjoyed the show, but I got about a third of the way through this episode and thought "you know what, I don't think I really care anymore." I really don't. You know it's time to stop watching something when it becomes a chore to do so. This show is not bad, it's just incredibly meh.
Wow, most of this is urban fantasy/light sci-fi stuff. Not a whole lot here that sounds interesting. I'll probably check out Terra Nova to see if it's any good and maybe Person of Interest, but aside from that...meh.
I thought it was fairly simple. Crowley wants to harvest the power of souls, so he starts hunting down monsters (especially the alphas) in order to exterminate them all. Why? Well, what do monsters do? They turn humans into even more monsters. And where do monster souls go? To purgatory, with Eve. The less monsters there are, the more humans there are, and therefore the more human souls there are for Crowley to harvest. Eve is pissed about Crowley offing her children, so she retaliates by trying to do the exact thing Crowley doesn't want to happen: turning all humans into monsters. This way all the souls go to Eve instead of to Crowley.
