Heroes: Season 3 (2008) 50% 6.5/10 EDIT “This was a tough season to sit through and enjoy. For all the fun superhero actions and ideas, there were five or more "Why is this happening?" moments.” – IGN Movies Apr 2, 2020 Full Review Heroes: Season 2 (2007) 50% 7/10 EDIT “As poorly as season two began, the series finished strong. The major characters remained intriguing throughout and there were enough interesting story arcs.” – IGN Movies Apr 2, 2020 Full Review Creature Comforts: Season 1 (2007) 65% 7.7/10 EDIT “Creature Comforts is not life-altering television, but it is some smartly executed, good-natured fun. You are not likely to find yourself laughing from beginning to end, but you certainly will be smiling the entire time.” – IGN Movies Mar 25, 2020 Full Review The Company: Season 1 (2007) 73% 4/10 EDIT “It's very long and very tedious, and to sit through it all may require sainthood.” – IGN Movies Oct 10, 2019 Full Review The Listener: Season 1 (2009) 31% EDIT “There's potential. And if the stories each week use the best aspects of Toby's gift to tell interesting tales, then The Listener might end up being perfect summertime viewing.” – IGN Movies Sep 12, 2019 Full Review The Philanthropist: Season 1 (2009) 61% 7.8/10 EDIT “[The Philanthropist's] not perfect, but it gets the job done and doesn't feel like a complete toss-off series created just to fill the summer void.” – IGN Movies Sep 5, 2019 Full Review Glee: Season 2 (2010) 77% 7.5/10 EDIT “The return of Glee fell just a bit short of the most enjoyable episodes from last year, but reset things well enough to prepare us for what will hopefully be another fun, rocking ride.” – IGN Movies Feb 27, 2019 Full Review Community: Season 3 (2011) 93% 9/10 EDIT “Season 3 was full of great stories, enjoyable character growth and some incredibly strong, memorable episodes.” – IGN Movies Jan 12, 2019 Full Review Eli Stone: Season 1 (2008) 61% 6.9/10 EDIT “There's a lot of potential in Eli Stone. The idea still remains intriguing, the right actors are in place and the characters have a decent, though so far generic start.” – IGN Movies Nov 16, 2018 Full Review Life on Mars: Season 2 (2007) 100% 7.4/10 EDIT “I had high hopes that last night's series finale was going to be a meticulously planned, expertly written masterstroke...Though still entertaining and fun, this did not happen.” – IGN Movies Nov 2, 2018 Full Review Heroes: Season 4 (2009) 29% 7.4/10 EDIT “Season 4 was not the rebirth of Heroes, but it improved the series enough to prove that there is still a lot of potential.” – IGN Movies Jul 13, 2018 Full Review Heroes: Season 1 (2006) 82% 8/10 EDIT “Though frustrating at times, it was still a lot of fun to watch these gifted individuals find a way to fight the future.” – IGN Movies Jul 13, 2018 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 7 (1995) 100% EDIT “Say what you will about the result of who actually shot Mr. Burns, the investigation running throughout "Part 2" was loaded with laughs.” – IGN Movies Jun 14, 2018 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 5 (1993) 100% EDIT “What better way to kick off a season than looking back at a character's past?” – IGN Movies Jun 14, 2018 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 8 (1996) 100% EDIT “As the first episode proper of Season 8, "You Only Move Twice" opened up what many have called The Simpsons greatest year.” – IGN Movies Jun 14, 2018 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 3 (1991) 100% EDIT “Opening the year with a guest appearance from the King of Pop was a great way to kick off the series' third season... Big guest star, great story and the season just got better from there.” – IGN Movies Jun 14, 2018 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 10 (1998) 100% EDIT “"Lard of the Dance" was a great way to start Season 10, with the school year beginning and the kids returning to class.” – IGN Movies Jun 14, 2018 Full Review Futurama: Season 5 (2002) 100% 8/10 EDIT “Though there were some shaky moments early on, the new episodes of Futurama ultimately reminded us why we wanted the series back so badly in the first place.” – IGN Movies Apr 19, 2018 Full Review Futurama: Season 6 (2007) 100% 8/10 EDIT “But once that was hit, there was a steady stream of smart, funny and emotional storytelling. Welcome back, Futurama.” – IGN Movies Apr 19, 2018 Full Review How I Met Your Mother: Season 6 (2010) 100% EDIT “"Big Days" felt like a fantastic step forward, while effortlessly reminding us of all the great things How I Met Your Mother has to offer.” – IGN Movies Nov 28, 2017 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 1 (1989) 100% EDIT “... it wouldn't take long after "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire" for the series to find its funny.” – IGN Movies Nov 10, 2017 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 11, Episode 14 (2000) 7.0/10 EDIT “As a whole, the episode doesn't really do it for me, but there are still a number of laughs.” – IGN Movies Nov 1, 2017 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 7, Episode 19 (1996) 9.8/10 EDIT “It's a hilarious, tightly written storyline.” – IGN Movies Nov 1, 2017 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 18, Episode 22 (2007) 9.3/10 EDIT “If every future episode could be guaranteed to remain this smart and funny, we wouldn't have a problem with the show staying on the air for another 18 seasons.” – IGN Movies Nov 1, 2017 Full Review The Simpsons: Season 19, Episode 1 (2007) 5.0/10 EDIT “... overall, this is a very lackluster way to ring in the series' nineteenth season.” – IGN Movies Oct 31, 2017 Full Review
