7 hours ago
ABC is going for event television with "V," and so far it seems to be working. The series premiere of the 1980s series reboot attracted nearly 14 million viewers, and made the top 10 for the first week of sweeps. But can that success continue? After Tuesday's episode, there will be only two more before spring, with ABC hoping fans will stick around and watch to watch more despite the break.

This review may contain spoilers. It is always a rare treat when "Smallville" delves into the Superman mythology, and "Kandor" is as momentous and integral an event to the mythos as the death of Jonathan Kent.

It was an intense scene that made more sense at the end of the episode when we discover that Al has ... »

This article may contain spoilers. The opening sequence alone was enough to make your hair stand on end. A man was planning a romantic rendezvous with his wife for their anniversary, but, as he set out the vase of roses and a card, a shadow walked by. Sensing there was something there he turned and proceeded to search the apartment, flipping on light switches to find out if anyone was there. When one of the lights went out, he turned it back on to discover a shadow figure. Backing away slowly, it was clear he would not survive. Then when his wife arrived, she found him sitting in a chair and, as she reached out to touch him, he crumbled into dust. It was ashes to ashes.
