“Now in Color,” the third episode of Wandavision, brings our two leads into the swinging ’70s – complete with technicolor, a new Brady Bunch-esque set and opening credits sequence, and era appropriate phraseology to boot. The episode also brought us a step closer to solving the mystery of just what is happening with Wanda to […]

Promising Young Woman Review
Promising Young Woman, the sensational film from writer/director Emerald Fennell, is not a story of a woman’s triumph over the callous, toxic men that surround her. So, if you are planning on watching this film to see its leading lady Cassie (the incredible Carey Mulligan, proving herself to be one of the best actresses in […]
Lupin – Season One (Spoiler-Free) Review
While I was scrolling through my Netflix account last week, I noticed a show called Lupin had made it into the US Top 10 list. Intrigued, mainly because I hadn’t really seen all that much in terms of promotional material for the series, I did some digging. And then I immediately binged the entire first […]
Wandavision – Episodes 1 and 2 Review
Let me level with you: I don’t know the endgame for Wandavision. I don’t know why Wanda seems to be living in recreations of classic sitcoms (The Dick Van Dyke Show and Betwitched would be the templates for Episodes 1 and 2, respectively, in case you aren’t up to date on your TV history – […]
Derek DelGaudio’s In & Of Itself (Spoiler-free) Review
A few years ago, back when live theatre was a thing we could experience in person with other people around us, I heard about illusionist Derek DelGaudio’s smash hit show “In & Of Itself” and I was crushed that I wouldn’t be able to snag a ticket and head out to New York to catch […]
Star Trek: Discovery – The Hope Is You, Part Two Review
Remember everything I wrote about how I hoped Discovery‘s writers were planning a long and complex arc for Osyraa and the Emerald Chain? Yeah, definitely missed the mark on that. And I’m definitely pretty miffed at how Michelle Paradise (the co-showrunner and writer of the episode) opted to end season three – and how utterly […]
Star Trek: Discovery – Su’Kal/There is a Tide Review
The writers of Star Trek: Discovery were given a monumental task for season three. With the series now set in the 32nd century, they had to spend a significant amount of time on world building to get audiences (and their core characters) up to speed on the political, technological, and societal situation at this point […]
The Flight Attendant (Spoiler-Free) Review
Upon finishing the second episode of HBO’s newest dramatic thriller, The Flight Attendant, I tweeted that the show was triggering my particular brand of lawyer anxiety, as the series’ protagonist Cassie (an excellent Kaley Cuoco) was ignoring the incredibly sound advice of her lawyer friend Annie (a perfectly cast Zosia Mamet) and making some seriously […]
Star Trek: Lower Decks Review
This article will contain spoilers for the first season of Star Trek: Lower Decks, so turn back now if you do not want to be spoiled. Yes, I know I’m several months late to the party here, but at least I got in. If you’re all familiar with me, you know I’m a Star Trek […]
The Mandalorian – Chapter 16: The Rescue Review
Well, that was a hell of a finale. Not only did the episode bring several of the season’s best characters together for one final assault on Moff Gideon, it also brought back (for good and for ill) one of Star Wars’ most important characters to take little Grogu under his Jedi wing and train him. […]
