Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “I haven’t seen most of this week’s new releases, but I have watched Season One of Ah! My Godess, and I liked it, and I’d give that my reccomendation. I’ll also be checking out Stuff Happens as well, as I grew up on Bill Nye: The Science Guy.” Blaine says, “I’ve also had limited exposure to this week’s titles, though there are three titles here I consider must-have TV product that I’m following on home video instead of broadcast: Heroes, Supernatural and C.S.I.: Crime Scene Investigations.”
