Guys. Guys! There are polar bears with armor! And they are so cute! (Ok, they do also exude the regal elements the show clearly wants them to, but they are also talking polar bears wearing bear-sized armor, which means they are also adorable.) But, most importantly, this was an good hour of television from start […]
Now that I’m convinced it’s keeping its quality (and since it has already been renewed for a second season next year), the CBS series Evil has earned an episode-by-episode review, so I’ll be writing episodic summary-reviews beginning this week… Can the previously-found map of evil (The Poveglia Codex) with more than 60 sigils help lead […]
The past is something we tend to cling to like a security blanket. When we discuss something awful, we hold it up as a clear mark, a blemish, a black spot on the soul of humanity – something that we won’t do ever again. Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it […]
Let’s get this out of the way right off the bat: Baby Yoda (which I know is not the Child’s name, but since the internet has decided to use that name I’m going to go with it until we get something else) is ridiculously cute. Hell, I’d watch an entire series that was just it […]
Remember how excited I was about learning characters in His Dark Materials can travel between world’s last week? Well, that’s just how disappointed I was with this week’s tired twist – that Coulter and Asriel had an affair, complete with an angry husband trying to kill Lyra and both of them. What a dumb, predictable, and, […]
Remember a few weeks back, when Laurie Blake told Angela Abar that people put on masks in response to some sort of trauma – usually from their childhood or youth? Well, while we may still be waiting to discover why Angela is drawn to her particular masked persona, we definitely understand just what made Wade […]
After watching “Chapter One,” the series premiere of The Madalorian (aka the one thing on Disney+ that millions of people were waiting to watch), I decided I should wait until I’d watched at least the series’ second episode (which was officially titled “Chapter Two,” but also used the title “The Child” within the episode) before […]
So, I will admit that I wasn’t all that invested in “The Idea of the North,” the second episode of His Dark Materials. At least until that bonkers crazy twist where there is a multiverse?!? What?!? And with that, all my mundane questions about the rules of the fantasy world of the series (some of […]
Fans of seasons one and two of Netflix’s The Crown, fear not! I come bringing good news! Despite changing over nearly every single cast member from the shows first two installments (the lone holdover is a pleasant, if brief, surprise early in the third season), I’m happy to report that season three of The Crown […]
This week’s rather straightforward episode of Watchmen (if any episode of Watchmen can ever truly be classified as “straightforward”) opened with a mixed homage to another superhero of the DC universe: Superman. The Clark family, childless Oklahoma farmers, are given a child right before something crashes down from the sky and lands in their cornfield. […]
