“The Vat of Acid Episode” was an episode that showed how inventive Rick and Morty can be and was a big improvement over the previous episode. After meeting a pair of intergalactic gangster Morty mocks Rick for making them hide in a fake vat of acid. Morty adds to the mockery by taunting Rick into […]

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 […]
Rick and Morty – Promortyus Review
“Rattlestar Rickactica” and “Never Ricking Morty” were both excellent episodes, so it’s sad to report that the seventh episode in Rick and Morty’s fourth season was a downgrade. Rick and Morty awake on a planet after killing a couple of facehugging parasites that were attached to them. The pair escape the planet but have to […]
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 […]
Rick and Morty – Never Ricking Morty Review
“Never Ricking Morty” was the most ambitious and meta episodes of the fourth season so far. Rick and Morty find themselves trapped on a literal story device, a space train filled with characters who have had a past with Rick. Rick and Morty seek for a way to escape the trains as they experience various […]
Central Park (Spoiler-Free) Review
If you love Bob’s Burgers but wish the series included more musical numbers (and boy, has that show had some great musical numbers), have I got a series for you! Central Park, the first major animation release from Apple TV+, comes from the minds of Burgers writers Loren Bouchard and Nora Smith, adding Josh Gad […]
The Last Kingdom Season Four Review
The fourth season of The Last Kingdom is the biggest season yet and sees more conflict between the Saxons and Danes and within the Saxon kingdoms. Years after the events of Season Three the peace between the Saxons and the Danes is about to break. The Danes led by Cnut (Magnus Bruun) have amassed a large army […]
Grant Review
There’s a moment in the second night of Grant where an exhausted Robert E. Lee and fellow Confederate leaders are debating what Ulysses S. Grant will do after a few days of fighting to a stalemate in The Battle of The Wilderness in Virginia. The other commanders tell Lee that Grant will retreat. “Tell me […]
Killing Eve – Beautiful Monster Review
Well gang, we’ve done it. We’ve made it through the penultimate episode of season three of Killing Eve, and I sure hope you understand all of what the show is trying to show us better than I do at this point. Watching this episode I had multiple moments where I was genuinely confused at how […]
Trashy Netflix Shows to Dive Into This Week
Confession: I meant to write this article last year, right after the premiere of Dead to Me in 2019. But life in the Time Before was hectic and it never got written. However, now with seemingly unlimited time on our hands, the time has come to sing the praises of my two favorite trashy Netflix […]
