Well. That was quite the episode. And, for my money (having not seen the last two episodes of the season just yet) the best one so far in Pluribus’s freshman season. After watching Carol actively push everyone and everything away – both in her quest to discover a means to put the world back the […]
There’s something simple and utterly delightful about Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Disney+’s adaptation of Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson book series. It’s the rare show that works on two levels – it’s clearly aimed primarily at a younger audience, but it also has more than enough interesting beats and fun casting choices to keep adults […]
Well, we learned an awful lot about the Others, their particular world view, and just what they can and cannot do to the world around them and the Survivors themselves this week. Oh, and we also got a bit more time with Manousos, Carol’s best chance at a partner in crime when it comes to […]
Jupiter’s cock, there’s a new season of Spartacus heading to Starz this weekend. Now, if everything in the last sentence made absolutely no sense to you, Spartacus: House of Ashur is probably not the right show for you to dive into right now – but more in a moment on what those unfamiliar with the […]
It’s been a minute since we last visited Hawkins, Indiana to check up on how the denizens of the town were dealing with the incursion of The Upside Down – and its terrifying mayor, Vecna (or Henry Creel or One, depending on which point in time you’re dealing with him). In the three years since […]
So, I think it’s safe to posit that we’ve got a Soylent Green situation on our hands, no? Okay, let me back up a tad before jumping to the episode’s cliffhanger ending (or, at least, cliffhanger-esque – the potential clues for what will be revealed next week have been pretty clearly laid out for us […]
In the middle of Good Friday Mass, a priest drops dead in an anteroom directly off the altar. A firebrand, this priest – Monsignor Jefferson Wicks (a very good Josh Brolin) – hasn’t exactly endeared himself to the community at large (or to the new, young priest assigned to the parish). But he does have […]
A popular bit of Shakespearean trivia goes like this: Did you know that Shakespeare had a son, named Hamnet, who tragically died as a young boy from the plague? And in the wake of his death, Shakespeare wrote one of the greatest plays in human history, “Hamlet,” the tale of a young prince who wrestles […]
There’s something truly magical about a Mike Schur show. Despite being half hour comedies, there’s so much heart baked into each episode – so much care given to crafting each character – that you get to the end of a season and find yourself desperately wishing you could have just a couple more minutes with […]
The word of the week on Pluribus is “agency.” As in, does Carol have the agency – which was promised to her by the Hive – to decide whether or not she wants to join them? And, on the flip side, does the Hive have the agency to determine that they want to remain as […]
