Well, for my money, those were the finest three hours of Star Wars in the history of the series. From watching the destruction of Ghorman to the rise of Mon Mothma as the leader of the Rebellion to the collapse of two central relationships within the series, so much of what occurred in this three-episode […]

The Last of Us – Day One Review
A bit of housecleaning before we dive into the review. I have not played The Last of Us and have (miraculously) managed to remain completely in the dark about the contents of the second game – upon which this and the third and final season of the series will be based. So, these reviews will […]
Doctor Who – Lucky Day Review
I had been wondering what had become of Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson, a force in her return to this universe), so I was delighted to see her back on our screen. And even though she didn’t get a chance to reunite with The Doctor once more – this was one of the Doctor-lite episodes that […]
Hacks – Clickable Face Review
Well, well, well. I’m very intrigued with what Paul W. Downs, Jen Statsky, and Lucia Aniello have planned for the final set of episodes this season, because this is the first time we’ve really seen Deborah be the one who is hurt by Ava’s indifference towards her. Now, was Stacey (the always wonderful Michaela Watkins*) […]
Doctor Who – The Well Review
Well, that was quite the episode! Not only did we get a nice call back to the Tennant era of Who (now a pretty common occurrence thanks to Russell T Davies’ return to the helm of the series), but we also got a horror-infused mystery with genuine jump scares (which is a heck of a […]
Andor – Week Two Review
Out of our initial two batches of episodes in this final season of Andor, this triptych was the weaker of the two, spending most of its three hours laying the groundwork for what is likely going to befall Ghorman – and reverberate out and impact all of our characters – in the coming episodes. However, […]
The Last of Us – The Path Review
A bit of housecleaning before we dive into the review. I have not played The Last of Us and have (miraculously) managed to remain completely in the dark about the contents of the second game – upon which this and the third and final season of the series will be based. So, these reviews will […]
Hacks – I Love LA Review
Anyone who watched Ugly Betty back in the early aughts knows that Mark Indelicato is a comedic talent. Sure, he was just a precocious kid back then, but he had incredible comedic timing and could still rip your heartstrings out at a moment’s notice. I had been waiting for a while to see when Hacks […]
Andor – Week One Review
A bit of housecleaning before we get into the review of the first three episodes of Andor’s second, and final, season. When it was first announced that these twelve episodes would be released in a set of four triptychs, I wasn’t sure just how I would cover them. And while I will decide with each […]
The Last of Us – Through the Valley Review
A bit of housecleaning before we dive into the review. I have not played The Last of Us and have (miraculously) managed to remain completely in the dark about the contents of the second game – upon which this and the third and final season of the series will be based. So, these reviews will […]
