LOW BROWTakenPierre MorelTaken is about a CIA agent who goes on a vengeful rampage following the kidnapping of his daughter by Arab sex traders, leading him to kill fifty or sixty faceless evil-doers. If his daughter, played by a way-too-old-to-be-seventeen Maggie Grace (of Lost fame), had only listened to Liam’s pleas to be careful in the dangerous city of Paris, she would be safe, but now he has to get his stab and neck-chop on in the most righteous of ways. The morals espoused by Taken are simple: If you have premarital sex, you will die. If you don’t listen to your parents, you will die. If you go to a foreign country, you will die. If you get in Liam Neeson’s way, you will die.-Jeremy GordonMID BROWHeroes (Season premiere)NBCMonday’s hour-long premiere of NBC’s Heroes did an excellent job of setting the stage for the rest of the season; whether or not that’s a good thing is hard to tell. The overarching plot quite noticeably took center stage over normally rich individual stories, a trend I hope does not continue throughout the rest of the season. This time they’re not saving the cheerleader or saving the world, they’re banding together to save themselves from the omnipresent Senator Nathan Petrelli and his plans to rid the world of all who are supernaturally endowed. Sound a little cliché? Maybe it is, but that’s not to say that the return of Heroes wasn’t fantastically entertaining.-Angie JaimeHIGH BROWPuppy Bowl VAnimal PlanetFor those of us who don’t find football engaging and previously thought the Cardinals were just a baseball team, it’s a pleasure to watch Animal Planet’s standby adorable alternative: The Puppy Bowl. Watch as the stuff of Lisa Frank folders interacts in a mini-arena with a fake audience (painted to look proportionate to the critters) and is interrupted by a referee calling arbitrary puppy penalties. Just when you begin wondering how one arrives at that job, the halftime show begins, and it’s arguably better than The Boss. It’s kittens! In terms of cultural significance, the Super Bowl may win, but in terms of cuteness, it’s no contest.-Emmy Blotnick
