Back from a month-long hiatus, heroes were the name of the game this week, unsung or otherwise.

Since the mid-season finale, the quality of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episodes has gone downhill, there’s no way around it. The first half of the series was very strong, exploring the powers of the obelisk and Skye’s change. But now the action has dropped off, the plot lacks any real depth and the new characters we are introduced to are weak.  by Graham Osborne

 BETRAYAL IS THE PRICE OF POWER
Epic drama, Vikings, returns exclusively to HISTORY® for the UK premiere of the hotly- anticipated and adrenaline-fuelled second series.

Let’s be real here. Does the world really need another zombie TV story? Haven’t we reached zombie saturation point now? Can we really say zombies aren’t heading the way of the sparkly teen vampire? Well, no, actually. Despite the plethora of zombie media ravaging our screens at the moment it has all managed to stay decidedly male. Rob Thomas (creator of cult hit Veronica Mars) and Diane Ruggiero-Wright have decided to finally fill that girl-shaped void with iZombie, and it’s about time too.  by Hayley Charlesworth
I am a die-hard Neighbours obsessive. I own records from former actors’ music careers, both good and bad. I have a picture of Dr Karl Kennedy hung up on my bedroom wall. I am a member of The Art of Neighbours, a Facebook group that depicts scenes from the show in MS Paint. It’s fair to say I’m quite the fan. And with today marking the 30th anniversary of Neighbours airing in the UK, it was only fitting that I mark this occasion by highlighting some of the moments that made Neighbours truly great.  by Julia Lawson
Neighbours. Everybody needs good NEIGHBOURS! Thanks to Channel 5, many of us over in the UK are very familiar with the catchy, sunny soap which glorifies life the Australian suburbs. It is amazing to think that the show has reached its 30th Anniversary and the number of storylines covered in that time.  by Robbie Jones
Breaking Bad painted Saul Goodman as a bit of scumbag. He lacked a lot of morals, but Jimmy McGill certainly does not. This week’s episode of Better Call Saul is far from great, but in terms of character development, it did an excellent job.  by Cookie N Screen
It’s really hard, nowadays, to do a comedy television series. In this overtly offended world where people would blow up at the simplest of jokes, it seems that people are trying harder to provoke than deliver sound and rounded amusement. One country that seems to strike a right tone, darkly humours spliced with slapstick and wordplay is Ireland. It seems only fair to share a little bit of history from the Emerald Isle this St. Patrick’s Day! |
