When I first heard about Fantasmas, the new super queer surrealist HBO comedy series from Julio Torres, I wasn’t quite sure what to think about it. I was someone who had missed the boat on Torres’ previous HBO series, Los Espookys, so I wasn’t sure if this series would be for me. But boy, was […]
There have been two background storylines this season that have felt rather clunky in their lead up, but both finally started to pay dividends this week – just in time for each to heavily factor into the anticipated season endgame (which I won’t spoil, don’t worry, but if you’re a book reader, I suspect you’ve […]
Oh Vernestra. You’re rapidly getting in over your head and if there’s a season two of The Acolyte, it’s an easy bet to make that all of your machinations are going to start unraveling faster than you can say Darth Plagueis. But, I have to say, even though much of the episode played out in […]
So, I’m a bit late to the party when it comes to Sunny, the new dark comedy (very dark comedy) on AppleTV+. I saw the basic premise – that would be woman is given a robot and it sends her on a journey to try and find her presumed dead husband and son – and […]
After last week’s explosive episode, this week’s House of the Dragon was far more concerned with setting the stage for the back half of the season. We checked in with every major player, took stock of where they were and what they were doing and what their next hurdle would be – and laid out […]
Well, so the truth as to what really went down on Brendock sixteen years ago wasn’t exactly what I predicted last week. For one, Vernestra doesn’t appear to have anything to do with that particular incident (although I suspect mine – and pretty much everyone else’s – prediction that she has a connection to Qimir, […]
If there one thing we never really saw during Game of Thrones it was just how destructive dragons could be. Sure, we got to see Dany mow down enemies in battle from time to time, but the true destruction and loss of life wrought by her posse of dragons was always at her behest – […]
Something is rotten in the Jedi Order. At least that’s the major conclusion I’ve come to following “Teach/Corrupt,” a much quieter episode than past installments of The Acolyte, but one that – from its title to the conversations contained within – was designed to make sure we began to question just who might have the […]
Now that is what I have been waiting for from House of the Dragon for quite some time. That conversation between Rhaenyra and Alicent was the epitome of what makes a tragedy a great tragedy. That moment of realization that one single misstep, one choice, one misunderstanding set in motion something so complex and unstoppable […]
The first portion of this review will contain some general thoughts about season three of The Bear. The second portion will have spoiler-filled, specific thoughts on what worked and what didn’t about this season. But fear not! There will be a clear delineation between the two sections, just in case you haven’t finished your binge […]
