Overview.

Surely Terra Nova has to be the most disappointing show of the year. I feel like a mug for looking forward to it. This week we had a murder but as with everything, in this show, it was pretty simplistic and dinosaur light. I really can't see it picking up.

A much more dangerous place to live, than Terra Nova, is Seattle, well, if you watch Grey's Anatomy that is. The new season opened with a water main bursting. But this wasn't just a river running down the High Street, no, there was a crater so big it made the Grand Canyon look like a crack in the pavement. Grey's loves it's disasters and I'm sure we will be treated to a lot more as the season unfolds.

Also returning this week was The Mentalist. But I'm starting to think, do we Mentalist viewers live in a Mentalist bubble? This week saw Patrick imprisoned, then win a million dollars off  Mobsters in a card game, get out and solve a crime, then successfully defend himself in court. This is the sort of stuff that used to take Michael Scofield a whole season to achieve in Prison Break and Patrick gets it done in under an hour. Then we get the bombshell Red John is still alive. To an outsider, this would be laughable tosh, but to us saddos, inside the bubble, we swallow it all and want more.
