“Now in Color,” the third episode of Wandavision, brings our two leads into the swinging ’70s – complete with technicolor, a new Brady Bunch-esque set and opening credits sequence, and era appropriate phraseology to boot. The episode also brought us a step closer to solving the mystery of just what is happening with Wanda to […]
While I was scrolling through my Netflix account last week, I noticed a show called Lupin had made it into the US Top 10 list. Intrigued, mainly because I hadn’t really seen all that much in terms of promotional material for the series, I did some digging. And then I immediately binged the entire first […]
In a podcast double whammy Kieran Freemantle and Jean Henegan discuss the modern version of Doctor Who and debate on who should play the 14th Doctor.

Towards the end of the pilot in the new Fox show “Call Me Kat,” the title character turns to her mother and says that she’s 39 and single so her life “is going to be messy.” “Messy” is indeed the best–or at least the nicest word–to describe the garbled, poorly written new Fox sitcom about […]
Beautiful, showy costumes. Silly banter from the judges. Entertaining performances. Clues to the secret performer so the audience watching live at home can outsmart the judges and post their thoughts on social media. What makes The Masked Dancer fail is what makes The Masked Singer great. First time’s a charm. The second time is just […]
The writers of Star Trek: Discovery were given a monumental task for season three. With the series now set in the 32nd century, they had to spend a significant amount of time on world building to get audiences (and their core characters) up to speed on the political, technological, and societal situation at this point […]
