Full disclosure: I, unlike many women my age, never watched the original Gossip Girl series. Sure, I’m aware of the basics simply as someone who followed pop culture in the early 00s, but if you asked me to distinguish between Blair and Serena, I wouldn’t be able to. So, unlike I suspect many viewers (and […]

Schmigadoon! Review
There are niche shows and then there are niche shows. Schmigadoon!, the musical comedy series that parodies classic musicals, certainly falls into the latter category. As a massive theatre fan, this series was right up my alley, but I suspect it won’t play nearly as well for audience members who aren’t as well-versed in the […]
Loki – Journey Into Mystery Review
The penultimate episode of any season (or even series) is usually the key piece of the story where the show puts all its ducks in a row in preparation for the finale, where all the plot threads will be tied off into a nice little bow and we, the audience, can walk away satisfied with […]
Monsters at Work Review
Disclaimer: Review based on the first two episodes I love Pixar and always have. In particular, I love Monsters Inc. In fact, it was the first movie I was obsessed with. The colorful characters and offbeat humor mixed with Pixar’s signature beautiful animation made for a truly unique movie-going experience for a budding young film […]
Rick and Morty – A Rickconvenient Mort Review
Morty has always been a character who has been unlucky with love. His romantic endeavours have resulted in mass murder or the apocalypse. The episode ‘A Rickconvenient Mort’ explores Morty’s first relationship. Morty becomes infatuated with Planetina (Alison Brie), an elemental superhero who sets out to protect the environment. However, his potential romance has two […]
Rick and Morty – Mortyplicity Review
‘Mortyplicity’ is set to be one of the most trippy episodes of Rick and Morty. Considering some of the episodes Rick and Morty have produced that is a huge achievement. It has all gone to hell for The Smith Family because they are being hunted by alien squid people. Luckily for the Smiths, Rick has created decoy families […]
Feel Good Shows to Binge This Summer
There’s nothing like a charming, quirky, and lovable television show. When you need a pick-me-up or a half hour spent with genuinely lovely characters, nothing beats a feel-good series. And last year, the show that really fit that bill was the exquisite Ted Lasso (which returns for its second season on AppleTV+ on July 23 […]
Evil – A is for Angel Review
Where’s Roma Downey when we need her? In the second episode of season two, “A is for Angel,” our team’s primary task involves studying and assessing a recently converted parishioner who believes he is channeling the Archangel Michael. Bishop Marx (Peter Scolari) asks them to determine if he is possessed by angelic forces, demonic forces, […]
Loki – The Nexus Event Review
If last week’s installment of Loki was all about character, “The Nexus Event” was all about plot. And with only two episodes remaining in the series, having an episode dedicated to pushing the series towards its climax was much needed – and incredibly well executed. Nothing brings me greater joy as a viewer and as […]
Rick and Morty – Mort Dinner Rick Andre Review
Rick and Morty are back for a fifth season of their popular series. The first episode of the season was a fine start with the show having its usual mix of cynicism and nihilism. Morty saves Rick from a near-death situation. Instead of being grateful, Rick is mad at Morty because he must face his nemesis, […]
