    Tim Gunn still motherhens the designers, the dramatic arcs feel familiar (one designer is a recovering addict, another gave up a career as a surgeon), and--wonders to behold--there's even a branch of the fabric store Mood in Runway's new Los Angeles home.

    You know this Dr. Who spin-off aims to please when the return of Capt. Jack Harkness (John Barrowman) isn't even the big news.... With [Capt.] John [James Marsters] adding such a fun, unhinged element, it's a shame these two crazy kids broke up in the first place.

    Mirren's Elzabeth is emotional... But with that comes soemthing as rare on TV as it is rewarding--a love affair involving people over the age of 50. [21 Apr 2006, p.67]

    This sly Britcom is like a C-SPAN spin-off of... The Office. [12 May 2006, p.75]

    The access is such that you almost wish every member of Congress had a TV crew. [25 Aug 2006, p.81]
    • Metascore: 67
    • Alynda Wheat 83
    Oka is pure delight as a wage slave who's broken the space-time continuum, and... Grunberg shines as a telepathic cop. [29 Sep 2006, p.71]
    • Metascore: 70
    • Alynda Wheat 83
    The resolution with the ghost is plenty satisfying, but ultimately Medium's strength is that it's not about the ghosts.
    • Metascore: 66
    • Alynda Wheat 83
    [O'Toole's] Casanova may have lust in his heart, but it's his love for Henriette... that guides his life and makes the tale worth the telling. [6 Oct 2006, p.64]
    • Metascore: 69
    • Alynda Wheat 83
    Naturally funny interviews are easy TV; it's with drier material that the animators shine. [8 Jun 2007, p.74]
    • Metascore: 48
    • Alynda Wheat 83
    With a pleasant blend of quirkiness and charm, this is an M.I.T. we can all get into. [15 Sep 2006, p.68]
    • Metascore: 51
    • Alynda Wheat 83
    Wars is funnier than a movie about wedge politics has a right to be. [15 Dec 2006, p.80]
    • Metascore: 66
    • Alynda Wheat 83
    Mary Poppins it ain't--which is fine because the snooty broad couldn't begin to handle this. [21 Sep 2007, p.74]
    • Metascore: 72
    • Alynda Wheat 83
    The humor is wilder, the penury sadder, and Sophie Okonedo a winsome Nancy. The only bad twist is the overwrought score.
