I used to love the Christopher Reeve franchise as a kid. Not really been a fan since. I thought I'd give this a try and was pretty disappointed by the half way stage.

It was full of poor CGI which didn't look in the slightest bit authentic. Even the opening scene with the dog shouted out CGI.

It's probably time to kill off Superman. All these rehashes are worst than the previous ones. No doubt someone will give it another try in ten years time and people will still flock to watch it and ultimately be disappointed.

I'd rather watch Smallville from the turn of the century. It's far better than this rubbish be served up.

I'm just using space for a general review of season eight. While I've really enjoyed watching The Practice, I was getting a bit bored mid-way through season seven. I was aware that some of the top cast was leaving though and I was curious to see how season eight fared with some newbies joining.

I think Alan Shore is just the tonic the show needed. He's funny, devious and you know he's going to get his way.

I'm now looking forward to watching Boston Legal which I know is set around his firm. It should be a hoot if his season long spell on here is anything to go by.

I've just started watching this for the third time. It really is very good.

Hugh Laurie being cast as House is a stroke of genius. We Brits remember him as a comedy performer in the 80's and 90's, a bit of a posh boy. To see him transformed into this heartthrob wasn't something I ever saw coming.

He plays the maverick doctor so well. His accent is brilliant. If I didn't know he was English I would've sworn it was an American playing the role.

Each episode uses the same format. Somebody is ill but nobody knows why. House will get a lightbulb moment, probably go against all medical ethics but the save the patient. You'd think it would get dull, but it doesn't.

If you haven't seen it, go and watch it.
