Always accompanied by a photo of Anne Hathaway, he does reviews with a focus on horror, like his Scream retrospective, multiple Top 10 lists (often concerning Doctor Who) and two series called Why I Like... and My Problem With..., where he (quickly) goes into depth about something he does or does not like. Pretty straightforward really.
