8/10 Flash, Arcade Game, older kids and up
Although a little gruesome, this is a great game for time-wasters who only have a couple of minutes to play. You’re a shark, in Miami, who needs to eat as many people, and animals, as possible. After diving down, you leap up into the air to devour and crush your prey. You eat everything from dolphins to helicopters, and leave nothing standing! There is blood in the game, so it might not be for the squeamish, but for monster movie buffs, this is a must play. Also, check out the new game, Sydney Shark!

7/10 TV Drama/Humor, Older Children and up
Glee is one of my favorite series, and this part of the season,(they split the season in two to gauge reaction), is particularly good. I love the new dramatics that have come to light, and Neil Patrick Harris shone as Will Schuester’s rival. However, the dance numbers didn’t have their usual vigor, and although the episode worked hard to develop the character’s of Artie and Tina, it actually revealed surprisingly little about the character’s thought or feelings. A good episode, but not one of the best. Worth watching for the surprise twist!

Rating: 5/10, TV Humor, YA and up
Although I usually enjoy The Simpsons, this episode is particularly implausible, to the point that it’s not even funny. Ridiculous humor, when well done, is one of my favorite types. But this episode felt forced and almost ‘grin and bear it.’ There were some funny moments, my favorite being the intro; Harold and the Purple Crayon style, and if you really have nothing better to do, give it a watch.
