Snapped Season 10
I am a long time fan of Snapped. I love the idea that I can simply pick the episode that I like and not store it on my iPad and save my storage space.

Amy Bishop
O liked that the episode had former students of UAH telling their experience with the professor and of the event. The face that the doc had mainly reporters and authors recounting the information hey gathered rather than any input from the survivors or former friends was kind of disappointing. Maybe no one wants to speak. In this particular case, maybe there is not much more to say.

Wonderful escape TV
Snapped is a wonderful escape from daily reality. The re-enactments are somewhat silly, but do give you the general depiction of the narrators dialouge. If you are watching this show on TV, and have to suffer through commercials, then you may not notice the constant re-overview done to keep you up to speed. However, when watching this show commercial-free on my Kindle, the re-overviews and backtracking take up a great deal of the episode. It almost leads me to believe that the writers think viewers are stupid, or are not paying attention the first time the facts of the case are given. I don't need to be brought up to date four or five times per episode. The musical score is catchy and fits the theme nicely. Great show, but give the people watching a little more credit.

Lies

Pretty horrible show for a lot of reasons...
I just saw the episode titled Memory. Here are some of the things wrong with it...

1. I'm not saying I'm a genius, but where did they find those people? Except for the very first test, almost nothing in any of their memory tests fooled me like they said they fooled 100% of people they tested. Perhaps this was because, after the very first test, I knew I was going to be fooled by them. But getting pretty much every single thing right every time got very boring really fast. It's fun to be fooled, but their tests were way too easy.

2. They said that Travis Walton probably didn't really get abducted because he remembered everything "too well." Really? Six men saw a space ship up close, and then one of them disappeared without a trace for a week. But his memory played tricks on him, and he had a false memory of things in great detail that many other people have also remembered, including accounts written down in the 1800s that were completely forgotten until...

Great Series
My Psychology Student's love it. It shows just how "wrong" we can be about what we think we hear and see.

A Hopeful Start...
I watched the episode of this series on memory. Some quotes: "Remembering is Believing" "... the story is familiar-we tend to overestimate its truth..." "... this is a psychological phenomenon known as the 'Illusion of Truth Effect' "! I should have liked this show especially given my absolute distrust of our running-dog media and the abuses of current propagandistic pop history. The crux of this episode was the fallibility of human memory and how easy false memories or inaccurate memories are to create. Sadly that same running-dog mentality reared its ugly head with an awkward and false drubbing of 9/11 conspiracy theorists. There are PLENTY of real reasons to believe 9/11 was a true conspiracy other than Bush's so called memory lapse about planes hitting the tower. To include that vignette in this episode was a cowardly roll-over to satisfy current Official History and its neocon Keepers. The Tiananmen tank photo with the crowd of onlookers aroused twisted memories in subjects...

The Pony

Jimmy, we hardly knew ye
Sesson 3 is starting out with the heart cut out of the plot, the charismatic and central Jimmy having been been gratuitously mowed down by the producers at the end of last season. So far, in this episode, BE retains the gorgeous sets and costumes, evocative music and stylish presentation that are a big part of its appeal, but the plot seems to be meandering and it remains to be seen if BE can recapture its former strength.

Hooked
Bought whole series...I am hooked...addicting to watch. Well written and played. Have many requests to pass on when I am done watching.

review
I love this show. If one would think since Jimmy was killed off in season 2, that the show might not be as entertaining, wrong. Nucky becomes more of a gangster and the last couple episodes are action packed. Fantastic new characters are brought into play in this season. I would rate this season 5 stars, as I would the past seasons.

Episode 2

A Moody Seven Part Miniseries That Explores The Darkness Of A Small New Zealand Community
The enigmatic seven-part miniseries "Top of the Lake" is a slow burn mystery that takes its time to unravel. But, in many ways, this is more than just a traditional crime drama. The location becomes a significant (if not the most significant) character in a study of a community in isolation. Gorgeous New Zealand locales serve as the exotic backdrop to a land defined by those who inhabit it. It's not an easy place to escape as our heroine (Elizabeth Moss) discovers. As a detective returning to her home town, Moss is undeniably haunted by her past and wanting some form of closure. When an underage girl becomes pregnant, Moss is put on the case and she starts to work out her own demons as well. Can she save both the girl and herself? Beauty and tranquility are juxtaposed with crime and desperation. In the hands of Oscar winner Jane Campion (The Piano), "Top of the Lake" plays to some of the same themes as AMC's recent "The Killing" with a dash of "Twin Peaks" thrown in. It's a dark,...

I keep wanting season 2
so good. subtle, moody, quiet. Has that crooked insight David Lynch films have without the quirky distractions. Beautifully done. Season 2 please!!!

Beautiful and haunting
this is my new favorite show (2nd only to The Newsroom).
The script is thoughtful and provocative. The acting is exceptional. It is a sad and disturbing story, but not without hope. Well done.

New Scars and Old Wounds- Part I [HD]

Superior ensemble cast with edge-of-your-seat suspense
The story played out through a multi-national cast is unique: personalities, cultural assumptions, mannerisms, even language is very different between the team members. This global perspective should happen more often on provincial American television. Stories are well-rendered and complex. Sometimes it is so suspenseful, I found myself wanting to roll through to the resolution. But, never mind. Watch ever second. You won't be disappointed.

Great Pilot- spoilers included
The two episodes that comprised the Pilot were wonderfully a mix of American and European flavor. The case was worth watching, had a wonderful flow, it was actually interesting. The choice of criminal... well the actor was not quite up to the role, in my opinion. Or the choice was a bit wrong to make the character as he was, viciously goofy is the best way I can say it. He came across as more pathetic than anything else. Was there an intent to show that murderers are pathetic little creeps? I wonder. Some intensity was lost because of the murderer's portrayal.

I can not explain exactly what intrigued me so much as a show without a compelling villain is usually doomed. Perhaps it is the actors and the beautiful chemistry they have as a group. The loss of one agent/officer, the oldest woman on the team was difficult. She was easy to watch, she captured my attention when she was on the screen. I was sorry to see her character go.

Louis is a damaged but charismatic...

good quality
This show I found by accident. Boy am I glad I did.
Interesting characters and tight story lines make me waiting anxiously for the next season

The New Girl

Good Concept, Shocking Murders
I enjoy watching these types of reality television programs and this one turned out to be quite good in the way it was constructed. The concept of having the best friend be the murderer is unique and very shocking. I have watched programs similar to this one where a spouse ends up being the victim and this show is even more unbelievable and disturbing some how.

My biggest objection after watching four episode is the title of the program, "I Killed My BFF". It is too cute and disrespectful for subject matter this serious. The network should have just spelled it out and called it "I Murdered My Best Friend" instead. It sounds better and more mature which should be the case considering the serious nature of the content involved.

I also prefer to watch thiry minutes instead of sixty minutes when it comes to this type of format. As I watched an episode I felt in most cases they really dragged the story out. One of my favorite crime reality programs is STALKED:...

Best Friends Forever...Right
Here's another true crime series that depicts how relationships can turn deadly. From gal pal's to best mate's, you never know when a woman, a man, envy, or money will come between best friends.

Silent Scream
It was so exciting to watch a former student act in this movie. Eddie Buck did a terrific job as Eric. It looked like an absolutely flawless performance. He 's a natural at acting. I hope the movie industry takes notice and puts him in more movies. The deaf community definitely wants to see more of him. I wasn't able to watch this at the time it was shown on tv so I'm really glad Amazon has this service. Thanks.
P.S. It was good to see that the people who made this movie used real deaf actors rather than hearing people who can sign. The deaf community will always prefer it to be done this way. Let's see more movies like this.

The Color of Magic Night 2

Casts a Spell...
This is a funny, charming spellcaster from the Discworld stories of Sir Terry Pratchett, who is the funniest science fiction writer ever. Wizards, dragons, a walking trunk and the sex of a gigantic turtle all play a part in this adventure. David Jason as the wizard Rincewind is grumbling and repeatedly resigned to his fate as Death appears time and time again to collect him. I can never look at a tourist again without smiling after seeing Sean Astin as Twoflower, taking photos, and happily wanting to see all the sights.
This film was made in 2008, but still has enough CG to enchant. It is tame enough for kids to enjoy.

The Last Broadcast [HD]

Going out with a bang
Note that these are my thoughts on season five itself since I've already seen it. The DVD has not been released at the time of this writing, so I can't comment on the DVD extras.

Although I thought Season 4 was a bit rough (understandably, considering it was a character transition period), Season 5 definitely more than makes up for it.

Season five of Being Human recaptures the wonderful balance of humor and drama of season one, with a slight difference-- while Mitchell, George, and Annie seemed to have their own separate storylines that eventually meshed together, Hal, Tom, and Alex's stories are more intertwined from the start. This seems trivial until you see how close friends Hal, Tom, and Alex are in comparison with Mitchell, George, and Annie. Both groups are friends living together, but new trio seem inseparable compared to the original. They're all in it together-- Hal and his struggle with bloodlust and readjusting after 55 years of isolation from the...

Brilliant-you won't be disappointed!
This show continues to amaze and evolve. The writing is stellar as always, the actors stunning! I loved the story and really loved the characters. I hate to see this series end...but if it had to end...it couldn't have been done better! Hats off to all involved!

All Good Things Must Come To An End: The Boo, The Bite And The Beast Face Their Final Challenge
After five supernatural seasons, the British hit "Being Human" concludes its run in dramatic fashion. It doesn't seem that long ago that we were introduced to a trio of best friends kicking it with Mitchell (Aiden Turner), George (Russell Tovey), and Annie (Lenora Crichlow). Having said our tearful goodbyes to all of the principles over the past few season (Crichlow was the last to part at the end of Season Four), the final season appears decidedly different in every regard except one. The fundamental premise of having a vampire, a werewolf, and a ghost chasing normalcy and acceptance in the modern world is still a terrifically engaging idea. Through the years, the show has had lightness and humor as well as brutality and tragedy. In fact, that's perhaps its most successful accomplishment. The program could be terribly silly and fun at times, but gut wrenching and disturbing at others. This blend of moods is hard to achieve effectively, but "Being Human" has succeeded as a...

Toxic

Good but...
I've watched the first two episodes of the show so far, and I'm not sure what to think of it. There are parts I like, and parts I immediately reject. I like that they're not just recycling the same rouge's gallery as every other Batman series, and they're digging into some of the lesser-known villians and making them interesting. I don't like the changes to Alfred, however. Turning him into an ex-MI6 agent (who miraculously can't hear an antique car pulling up directly in front of him)seems like a cheap gimmick to reinvent the character. As a result he seems more like Jason Statham than Alfred Pennyworth. He was fine the way he was, and I think the change was entirely unnecessary.

Besides that, the Batman himself seems like a good iteration of the character... but there is one part in the second episode that stands out to me. He's talking with the woman who will become Katana, and out of the blue starts profiling her out loud for her to hear. Now if Batman was doing this to...

Don't Beware - Beware the Bat
I loved the animated series and I loved Batman Beyond. I never cared for "The Batman" because of the art style. Than Brave and Bold more than made up for it with its straight up fun take on Batman.

Beware the Batman is the next great Batman show. I was very skeptical (reading all the press leading up to the primer) but its done very well. If you are a fan of Batman, you will not regret buying every episode of Beware the Batman. Hands down, the best action of any of the Batman shows. You can clearly track what is going on during fight scenes, the animation is amazing. I also love the Batman design. It is very reminiscent of the Grant Morrison JLA Batman. The only major difference is the bat symbol on the chest is black (on black) instead of gold.

As a huge Kevin Conroy fan, I was not sure how I would like Batman's voice. But the voice actor who plays Batman is perfect for this incarnation. Also the Dad from "That 70's Show" is grat as Jim Gordon.

The Daily Show 8/15/2013

Get it from the source, for FREE
Don't get me wrong: the Daily Show is one of my all-time favorite shows, and really the only one I make time to watch regularly. But you really shouldn't BUY any episodes from any source. The most recent episodes (<2-3 weeks old) can be streamed for free on Hulu, and any episodes older than that can be watched from the daily show website for free - all 12+ seasons.

The Daily Show rocks!
My only problem/confusion here is that this is all available straight from the source at its website...for FREE (Also, in HD). Why, in the name of reason, would you pay for it here??? What are you waiting for? Go watch! :)

I love the Daily Show, but not in this format...
(This review is about the instant watch version of the show)
I love the Daily Show more than just about any other show in the world, even to the point of putting up with horrible Axe body spray commercials when I watch it on Hulu or the Viacom site. At first I was pleased to see that I could buy it at Amazon, but then I discovered that they don't include the extended interviews. That might not be so bad if each episode was a buck, but to charge two dollars for twenty-three minutes of TV and leave out the whole show is a rip-off. To be fair, I imagine the price is set by Viacom, but for two bucks I should get one complete, commercial-free episode of my favorite comedy news show.

Bad Reputation / Deadly Party

LIked the show
But the instant video player needs to be upgraded i have my computer hooked up to my tv. Every time i want to watch a episode i have to get up and walk across the room to scroll and click on the next episode to watch it gets old after 34 episodes. It would be awsome if it had a play all app for the tv seasons were it would play one episode after another. Thats the main thing keeping me from getting amazon prime.

Another great season
The First 48 always delivers great work by homicide detectives who want to rid the streets of dangerous criminals. This show never ceases to amaze me with the hard work and determination of the detectives.

Best of documentary television
Great camera work, compelling stories. Wish that the communities filmed were more diverse. Poverty is the ever present character in these stories

Gone in a Flash [HD]

Light-hearted fun Lawyer drama
Lets get this started with what the show is. Imagine Boston Legal, but instead of being clever and addressing serious issues, you amplify the comedic moments of the show and add a dash of fantastical fun.

The show focuses on two best friend lawyers who practice the law their way contending with the corporate culture instilled by their new boss played by Heather Locklear. The first few episodes of season 3 have shown the characters butting heads with her, but in a feel the other out sort of way. She's put up roadblocks and rewarded their successes while punishing their failures in a fairly whimsical manner. And that's what this show is. Whimsy.

Are Franklin & Bash ever going to stand before a Supreme Court? No. Are they ever going to handle a deeply serious rape or murder case? Not likely. Will they defend a vigilante who dresses as a goofy superhero? Of course. The show has the same imagination and heart you find in other similar light shows like Castle, but...

Great show
One of the few good shows for the summer. It has the perfect balance of humor and drama. The characters have great dialogue.

I did not have any streaming issues from my iPad. Played through with out any interruptions and quality was excellent.

Love, Love, Love
I really love this show. I was a little skeptic about it and so when it first came out i didn't watch it because i didn't think it would be interesting but it came out on netflixs so i decided to give it a chance and in 3 days i watched the entire season. It was amazing!!! I feel for every character and love how it makes the audience really think about people what deaf people go through and how strong they are as a person.When they do sign language on the show I think its soo cool and i know for some people having to read the subtitles would be annoing but i don't mind and actually like it. My favorite character is Emmentt. Hes too cute and although he made a mistake i really don't think he wud ever do it again and is deserving of a second chance, which I know Bay will do. I love this show and wud encourage anyone anf everyone to watch it.

Excellent Storyline and Series
This is a really excellent series. The plots are close to real life and I love that I am learning sign language as I watch the series. I am very supprised at how much I enjoy this show.

Great family picture
I liked this show it has something for everyone and I plan on watching more of them this is what tv should be liked
