A few housekeeping notes before I start this review: This review presupposes that you have watched the episode and it will discuss anything and everything that happens in it. Turn back now if you don’t want to be spoiled. I may speculate on what I think might happen (or what I would hope to see) […]

Wynonna Earp – On the Road Again Review
A few housekeeping notes before I start this review: This review presupposes that you have watched the episode and it will discuss anything and everything that happens in it. Turn back now if you don’t want to be spoiled. I may speculate on what I think might happen (or what I would hope to see) […]
Wynonna Earp (Spoiler-Free) Season Four Review
It’s been a long time coming (about two years, to be exact, thanks to some ridiculous issues with SyFy’s deal with the production), but season four of Wynonna Earp is here. And, after watching the two episodes made available for critics, it’s off to a hell of a start. For those of you who might […]
I May Destroy You (Spoiler-Free) Review
HBO’s I May Destroy You is the best show currently airing on television. That may sound like a grandiose statement, but give it a couple of episodes and I suspect you’ll agree. What Michaela Coel has constructed with this complex, compelling, and emotionally visceral series is nothing short of amazing. And while there have already […]
The Baby-Sitters Club (Spoiler-free) Review
Like many women who grew up in the late 80s/early 90s, Ann M. Martin’s “The Baby-Sitters Club” book series holds a special place in my heart. I remember taking the books out of the local library as a kid (starting with the “Baby-Sitters Little Sister” series that followed Kristy’s step-sister Karen and then “graduating” to […]
What We Do in the Shadows (Spoiler-Free) Review
Back in the winter of 2015, I went with a group of friends to see a mockumentary film from a couple of guys from New Zealand about vampires. While several of my friends were already fans of Jermaine Clement and Taika Waititi (years before Waititi would snag an Oscar and become a celebrated MCU director) […]
Love, Victor (Spoiler-Free) Review
Love, Victor, a sequel of sorts to the gay teen rom-com Love, Simon, had a winding road to its upcoming premiere on Hulu. Originally planned as a Disney+ original series, the streaming network got scared earlier this year and announced (after some additional time in cancellation limbo) that the series would be moved to Hulu […]
Ramy – Season Two (Spoiler-Free) Review
An interesting shift has happened over the last couple of months in the streaming war between Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Disney+, and AppleTV+: Hulu has surged ahead in the race to develop the best original content. Yes, a large part of that surge has come from taking on the FX on Hulu imprint (which has also […]
Space Force (Spoiler-Free) Review
The Office and Parks and Recreation are routinely heralded as two of the best comedies of the 21st century (and both are often mentioned on “Best of” lists that encompass a more significant period of time). But what fans of both shows will be quick to mention is that they became beloved in spite of […]
Killing Eve – Are You Leading or Am I Review
And, with an incredibly poetic (albeit frustrating) final scene, Killing Eve wraps its most uneven season to date. While I’ve been writing about it for the past eight weeks, often calling it out for its shockingly incoherent plotting and spiraling narrative, I had genuinely high hopes for the finale. I was expecting it to tie […]
