Friday List: Television’s most undervalued series
If you’re a regular reader of TV Surveillance, you know I love a good list. Or a mediocre list. Or even a horrible list. The point is I have a lust for lists. This fall, I’d like to provide you folks with more lists than ever and hopefully that will result in a weekly or…

Season Finale review — Warehouse 13, “Emily Lake”/”Stand”
This season of Warehouse 13 has been pretty tepid. The first half of season three was especially bad, as the early episodes quickly moved away from the emotional weight and damage of season two’s conclusion and chose to re-focus on the quirky – and often dumb – standalone episodes that didn’t have much last impact.…

Post-hiatus musings: Syfy Edition (Warehouse 13 and Alphas)
After nearly a month, my fairly substantial hiatus here at TVS is over. I am happy to be back providing content for you folks on a regular basis. In my time off, I’ve missed all sorts of television, both viewing- and writing-wise. To combat that, I’ll be whipping up a number of random posts with…

Season Premiere — Warehouse 13, “The New Guy”
Syfy’s Warehouse 13 is not a great program, but it one of television’s most purely enjoyable hours and certainly one of the more underrated programs out there. The Fringe-meets-USA Network premise is not wholly original, but the low-budget production makes it work, leading to some fun procedural stories on a fairly consistent basis. But what…

Christmas Special — Warehouse 13, “Secret Santa”
I have a surprisingly strong affinity for Syfy’s Warehouse 13. I quickly caught up on season one before the second aired this past summer, and by the time things came to an end in late September, I was really impressed with how the series expanded its universe nicely by continuing to rely on the dramatic…

Season Finale (Part Two) — Warehouse 13, “Reset”
A busy premiere week means lots of series to post about, so unfortunately, I did not get to Warehouse 13‘s season finale until earlier today. It seems I always forget about the series, but no matter what, it’s always an enjoyable hour of television and actually fairly potent as the second half of the finale.…

Season Finale (Part One) — Warehouse 13, “Buried”
I hesitated in writing about the first half of Warehouse 13’s finale because it just seemed easier to write about the events as a whole unit. However, while that is probably going to end up being true, there are a few things that are worth discussing. Most importantly, H.G. Wells has now made her obvious heel…

Warehouse 13, “Where and When”
Once again, I’ve slipped on my Warehouse 13 analysis, but I wanted to touch base with the series before the two-part finale begins next week. Again, my lack of posting on the series does not equate to its overall quality, because Warehouse 13 has been on a nice run all season with a slew of…

Warehouse 13, “For the Team”
For whatever reason, I can’t seem to keep with writing about Warehouse 13 and that’s a shame because this season has been much better than the first, especially the last five episodes. I wrote about episodes 3-5 a few weeks back, and while the headline just mentions last night’s “For the Team,” my discussion will…

Keepin’ it local — Musings on the last few weeks of Warehouse 13
I haven’t updated with my thoughts on the last few weeks of Warehouse 13, so this is going to be a more general post about the last three, I believe — all of which were very, very good.

Warehouse 13, “Mild Mannered”
I’m a little late getting to Warehouse 13 this week thanks to USA premieres and whatever goofy issues Hulu was having with uploading the episode, which didn’t occur until late last night. Anyway, “Mild Mannered” was a return to the flat-out goofiness that the series does so often and maybe it’s just my love of…

Warehouse 13, “Time Will Tell”
Sorry for the delay of this recap, again I have to blame it on my summer job hours. Meh. After watching all of Warehouse 13‘s first season in just two days and then writing a sizable piece on said marathon, I was totally psyched for the season two premiere, “Time Will Tell.” Like I mentioned…

Two days, 12 episodes — Entering Warehouse 13’s first season
Syfy’s biggest hit since changing its name — still can’t get over that — is Warehouse 13. The second season of the series begins Tuesday, July 6 and all the promos the various NBCU networks and channels have been running reminded me that I never watched the series last summer — even though I wanted…
