I am a massive fan of the 1992 film A League of Their Own. It’s one of my favorite films. My sister and I, both of whom played softball competitively (although I’m sure she would want me to stress that she was both better than me and also more dedicated to the sport, as I […]
When I last wrote about Evil, it was back in its first season – when the series was a solid, if not remarkable, drama on CBS. I’ve spent the last few weeks binging the second and the first half of the show’s third season and I’m here to tell you that the series is in […]
Considering the massive success of Stranger Things, it’s a bit surprising that we haven’t seen more networks and streaming sites attempting to find and create their own series centered around tweens stumbling into a situation where they will be called upon to save the world from outside threats. After all, there was the great “What’s […]
If you’ve jumped on the What We Do in the Shadows train (the excellent third season of which is currently airing on FX and Hulu), you’ve likely heard of Our Flag Means Death, since it includes appearances from members of the Kiwi brain trust that brought us Shadows. And if you haven’t yet watched Shadows, […]
And just like that, Ms. Marvel is over (but fear not – she will return in 2023’s The Marvels, more on that at the end of the review). What a joyously fun ride this six-episode limited series turned out to be. Sure, there were some missteps along the way, but when the series stuck to […]
On the surface, Black Bird, the new psychological thriller from AppleTV+, seems like something we’ve seen before. And really, it is. An adaptation of James Keene’s autobiographical novel “In With the Devil,” we follow Jimmy Keene (a great Taron Egerton, showing range he’s never had the chance to delve into before), a mid-level drug kingpin […]
Well, it appears I was correct in my guess as to just what Kamala was going to do during her journey to the past – help create the stars that would send Sana to her father, thus setting in motion her own future. A bit of a time travel paradox and all that, but still […]
I was born and raised in the Chicagoland area, and I have a confession to make: I’ve never had an Italian Beef. I have had many an authentic Chicago dog – I’m not a monster, after all – but never an Italian Beef. If you’re not from Chicago, that likely means next to nothing to […]
Well, I think we can all agree that there was absolutely no reason either of those episodes of Stranger Things: Season Four, Volume Two needed to be that long. I counted at least three places in episode nine where the episode could have ended and been split into two or even three episodes. And sure, […]
One of the things I love so much about Ms. Marvel is that it’s not simply concerned with putting the pieces in place for the next MCU installment. Sure, we’re getting to know a character who will be involved in at least one upcoming MCU film (2023’s The Marvels, although should the bangle turn out […]
