Sex Education Season Three Review
You’d be hard pressed to find a show more open and frank about sexuality than Netflix’s excellent high school drama Sex Education. And its third season offered up more of the same: serious conversations about teenage sexuality (where the teenagers are all portrayed by twentysomethings, but the intent stands), family, friendship, love, and whether or […]
Foundation Review
In a post-Game of Thrones world, every major network and streaming site has made a play for their own piece of beloved IP. HBO is continuing its Thrones universe with a prequel series.

The third episode of Vigil has a lot going on as it adds more suspects and conspiracies to the mystery involving HMS Vigil. DCI Silva believes that Craig Burke may have been poisoned after finding a strange substance on Burke’s hoodie and in his mouth. She also makes a lot of enemies since she has […]
Rick and Morty – ‘Forgetting Sarick Mortshall’ and ‘Rickmurai Jack’ Review
After a month-long break, Season Five of Rick and Morty returns with a double bill for its finale. It was worth the wait. The first episode of the double bill was “Forgetting Sarick Mortshall”.
