Some people have been avoiding grocery stores because of Covid and relying on grocery delivery, but it seems there’s another type of grocery store we should avoid—the one on TV in the form of Supermarket Sweep (ABC, Sundays, 8pm EST). There are some game shows that come back with new energy—like ABC’s Press Your Luck, […]

The Mandalorian – Chapter 14: The Tragedy Review
For my twelfth birthday, all I wanted were Star Wars toys. And boy did I get them. The coolest of the bunch was Boba Fett’s ship, Slave I that came complete with a miniature version of Fett and Han Solo encased in carbonite. Even as a kid I knew that The Empire Strikes Back was […]
His Dark Materials – Tower of the Angels Review
“Tower of the Angels” is the most loyal episode to the books so far this season. It’s also the best so far as the wider plot of the series starts to come together. Lyra and Will have been tasked by Sir Charles Latrom to retrieve The Subtle Knife from the Torre delgi Angeli – a […]
Emily in Paris Season One Review
Emily in Paris is the latest show by Darren Star, the creator of shows like Beverly Hills, 90210, Melrose Place and Sex and the City. As the title suggests his latest show follows a woman called Emily in Paris. Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) is a Chicago based social media manager who gets an unexpected job […]
The Mandalorian – Chapter 13: The Jedi Review
“The Jedi” was an exceptional 45 minutes of television, largely because writer and director David Filoni leaned into The Mandalorian’s biggest strength: Making sure to pair Mando up with characters strong enough to carry the narrative load of the episode. And boy was Ahsoka Tano the perfect character to bring out the latent emotional elements […]
Victor and Valentino Review
In U.S. popular culture, Greek and Roman myths have become prominent, whether spun into animations about Cleopatra or popular webcomics about the gods on Mount Olympus. However, there’s one show that tries to shift the focus toward Mesoamerican mythologies and stories, bringing it into the American mainstream: Victor and Valentino. This animated series is the […]
His Dark Materials – Theft Review
The Subtle Knife was the shortest of the novel in the His Dark Materials trilogy. This meant that the TV series had to expand the story to make it fit the median, and “Theft” was proof of this. Lyra sets out to Oxford to meet Mary to discuss Dust but a police detective was waiting […]
Star Trek: Discovery – Die Trying/Scavengers Review
Star Trek: Discovery continued its strong run with two very different episodes that served distinct, but important, roles in establishing the series in its new time and place. With “Die Trying,” the series grounded itself in the 32nd century world of the Federation, providing us a quick, but clear, primer as to what life is […]
The Mandalorian – Chapter 12: The Siege Review
Hands down, “The Siege” was my favorite episode yet of the Mandalorian. From relying on character development laid over the long slog through season one to carry most of the episode to finally providing some answers (which only led to more questions, but it was great to get some confirmation regarding the villainous plans of […]
Ted Lasso (Spoiler-Free) Review
I’ve been asked by a number of people over the last couple of months if Apple TV+ is worth getting, and my answer has been a stark “No.” I haven’t been particularly taken by any of the fledgling streaming service’s offerings. While there are some ok shows, that’s not something that justifies spending money to […]
