The first installment of Marvel and Disney+’s new series What If . . .? asks the question “What if Captain Carter were the first Avenger? (Instead of Steve Rogers.)” The answer, as you might have expected, was that Peggy Carter would become a hero swathed in the Union Jack, kicking Nazi ass and sacrificing herself […]
Season Five of Rick and Morty has been seen as a downgrade in quality. “Rickternal Friendship of the Spotless Mort” show there is still plenty of life in the show. The Smith family goes on a cruise and leaves Rick home alone. Rick uses this time to resurrect Birdperson who had been turned into a cyborg by […]
This Way Up is a show that can be brilliant or boring. The fourth episode of the second season was an example of being a dull entry in the series. Aine helps her flatmate, Bradley, with a Windrusher fundraiser. Richard comes to support Aine, but Aine gets worried that he’s getting too friendly with one of […]
Rick and Morty is a weird show. The episode “Gotron Jerrysis Rickvangelion” somehow combines anime, gangster films, and one of the worst plot developments in Rick and Morty’s history. When going to Boob World with Morty and Summer, Rick finds the Blue Gotron Ferret. This means Rick has finally completed his collection of Gotron Ferrets and […]
After watching the first three episode of Mr. Corman, the new AppleTV+ series created by and starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, I was ready to write up a complete pan of the series.

Are you a fan of What We Do in the Shadows (either the excellent film or the excellent TV series)? Did you love the episode of The X-Files where Mulder and Scully appeared on an episode of Cops? Or do you just like laughing at silly, yet still smartly crafted, parodies of cop and paranormal […]
The fan reaction toward Rick and Morty’s Fifth Season has been mixed, especially after “Rickdependence Spray”. Fortunately, the Thanksgiving-themed episode was an improvement from everyone’s favourite grandfather and grandson duo. Rick and Morty attempt to steal the US Constitution so they can use the secret treasure map printed on it. However, Morty accidentally destroys the […]
The White Lotus, the new limited series from Mike White (Enlightened), is definitely a “your mileage may vary” kind of series. That isn’t to say that it’s not good – that there isn’t a lot to enjoy about it – or that I’m not about to write a positive review (I am), but I am […]
