Overview

It's hard to know where to start this weeks Overview, with the exception of the Game of Thrones re run, it has been a poor seven days of viewing.

I Thought I would give Harry's Law a go. Even though it was on that home of the cancelled and faded, Universal. Well it certainly lived up to that esteemed channel's standards. A sappy, courtroom drama that was so sugary and saccharine, that watching more than a couple of episodes could probably give you diabetes.

I'm sure, like me, you were all up dancing, singing and clapping your hands to Matthew Morrison Live at the Hammersmith Apollo. I was quite exhausted but strangely exhilarated by the end. I'm starting to think, on the triple threat front, he is America's answer to Andrew Stone.

The minimal 'will they won't they?' tension was ruined during the ad breaks of Steps Reunion as they announced the dates of their upcoming arena tour. But then again, where better to flog Steps tickets than to the idiots watching this ego fuelled tear and spat fest.

Terra Nova ditched its faux Lost trappings of the opening episode, to give us a pretty dull family in peril story. If this is the way it is going we could all be in trouble. A deadly mix of Lost and Parenthood, the dinosaurs don't stand a chance.

I was wondering how much that original Helen Daniels painting, that hangs on the Kennedy's wall is worth? You know, the one of Libby, Mal, and Billy that has been there for eons. As we all remember Helen was one of Australia's foremost artists and considering she has been dead for donkeys years that painting must be worth a bomb. Surely Karl could take it to the Oz equivalent of Antiques Roadshow or, if that fails, Dickinson's Real Deals?
