Mark Carroll Very little television for me this past week, possibly for a few weeks yet. I did get to split "The Innocents" over three evenings, though, a movie about French nurse helping a bunch of pregnant nuns...

JustStark Films first then. Possessor, a sci-fi from Brandon 'son of David' Cronenberg. It has a kind of interesting premise —an assassin who hijacks other people's bodies in order to set up scenarios where...

JustStark V was, I think, what passed for quality US TV in the early 80s. V was, yes. The Final Battle starts off okay but really falls apart at the end. The subsequent series is just terrifically bad. I...

JustStark This is the 'reimagining's of both "V" and "Battlestar Galactica"? (I'm sure you already told us, I think it's "yes" to both.) No no no dear me no. The Battlestar Galatica that's all Mormons and...
