I will openly admit that I’m in denial when it comes to the fact that the upcoming third season of HBO’s exceptional dramedy Somebody Somewhere will be its final one. Where is the justice in the television world where a series this rich, this funny, this emotionally satisfying can’t run in perpetuity? I cannot think […]
This show, man. This show. What an absolute stunner of an episode, taking full advantage of having a heavyweight like Patti LuPone at their disposal, writers Gia King and Cameron Squires crafted an episode perfectly attuned to her unique set of skills – even if that didn’t include her getting to sing a solo version […]
Hysteria! the new horror thriller series on Peacock has a lot going for it. One look at the cast list – Julie Bowen (Modern Family), Bruce Campbell (Evil Dead), Anna Camp (Pitch Perfect, True Blood), Nolan North (a prolific voice actor who is making a welcome return to TV), and Garret Dillahunt (Deadwood, among many […]
Well, there we have it. The origin story of the MCU’s version of Wiccan, a character with complex origins in the Marvel comics (although all of them do intersect with Wanda Maximoff in some fashion). And while it was pretty close to what most folks online had guessed – he was once William Kaplan (and […]
I was luke warm on Shrinking back in early 2023 when it premiered. And now, having watched the final four episodes of season one in preparation for watching the first six of the upcoming second season, I see more of what the series was trying to do in its uneven initial series offering. That’s a […]
For the first time in its run, this episode felt almost incomplete. Sure, we had a couple of interesting (and sad) revelations within it, but this particular task didn’t have the same heft as the previous two* and even though we lost another member of the coven (and Rio got another body for her troubles […]
So, let’s get the big reveal – the one everyone assumed was coming, and that was more or less confirmed earlier this season – out of the way up top. The Stranger is Gandalf (or a Grand Elf . . . but really Gandalf). And yes, per Tolkien, Gandalf shouldn’t be in Rhûn at all […]
Well, I think we can put together just what went down between Rio (or is it Blackheart?*) and Agatha all those years ago – leading to their estrangement and everything that has happened to Agatha since. And even without that major revelation, this was a stellar installment of Agatha All Along, providing a number of […]
And there we have it: The Siege of Eregion, the major battle this season has been leading to from the moment Sauron first arrived there, disguised, and convinced Celebrimbor that it would be an absolutely exceptional idea to forge some rings to send out to the Dwarves and Men. Because those three Elven rings turned […]
Fare thee well Mrs. Hart, we hardly knew you. And, judging from that final line of the episode, neither did Agatha, whose selfish needs brought you on this trip and led to your unfortunate death. However, the death of Sharon means that the coven is now in need of a Green Witch – preferably the […]
