Well, that’s a heck of a start to the show, no? From spending the pilot letting us get a feel for just who Carol was, laying out just how the Joining came to be, and exploring a bit of how this new world order has impacted half of our surviving “humans” in very different ways, […]
When Vince Gilligan (the creator of Breaking Bad and co-creator of Better Call Saul) announced that he would be creating a new series for AppleTV+ starring Rhea Seehorn (the beating heart of Better Call Saul), I was beyond excited. And now that the series is here – and now that I have seen seven of […]
This review continues from part 1, which examined the themes, characters, and plot in seasons 1 and 2 of K-On!, a slice-of-life musical series. This review will examine the K-On! film, the special features, English dub, and more, within the Blu-ray collection.

As a big fan of AppleTV+’s Slow Horses, I was excited to learn that the streaming service was planning on adapting another Mick Herron book series. Unfortunately, despite two strong central performances from Emma Thompson and Ruth Wilson, Down Cemetery Road can’t quite live up to the high bar set by its Herron predecessor. It’s […]

K-On! follows […]
I fancy myself a bit of a foodie. I’m from Chicago – a world class city when it comes to food – and I have been lucky enough to have eaten at Michelin starred restaurants around the world. I’ve also watched every season of Bravo’s Top Chef, making sure to visit the restaurants of contestants […]
If there’s one thing The Last Frontier, the new thriller from AppleTV+ has going for it, it’s its cast. Which is absolutely stacked, not just with actors you’ll remember from big budget films – Jason Clarke, Dominic Cooper, Alfre Woodard, Johnny Knoxville – but a host of faces that will be familiar to TV fans […]
On September 19th, Knights of Guinevere, an animated mature sci-fi psychological thriller, with body horror and macabre qualities, premiered. It dropped on the YouTube channel of Glitch Productions, an indie animation powerhouse. The pilot was co-created by Dana Terrace, John Bailey Owen, and Zach Marcus. All three worked on The Owl House. Terrace was the creator. […]
It’s almost criminal just how good Slow Horses, the AppleTV+ spy series based on Mick Herron’s novels, is. Seriously. And, after a pretty good but not great season four – which saw us traveling back into River Cartwright’s (Jack Lowden, given less than usual to do this season) family history to stop a terrorist attack […]
Your enjoyment of season two of Gen V, the college-set spin-off of Prime Video’s super successful superhero drama The Boys, will be proportional to just how much you’re still invested in this world. After four seasons of The Boys, with the fifth and final season on the way, I’ve reached the supersaturation point with this […]
