Now that is the kind of episode I’ve been waiting to see from Obi-Wan Kenobi since we started on this journey a month ago. With Part V – and with only one more episode left to go – we finally get a chance to see just who our central characters really are at this stage […]
Color me impressed: It’s hard to pull off as complete a premiere episode as Ms. Marvel did last week – one where the characters are clear, distinct, and interesting and the cast already feels at home in their skin. But to do it again with the second episode of the series – a point where […]
Brooklyn Nine-Nine was one of the great American sitcoms of the 2010s. After eight seasons the series has come to an end. After a long wait for British fans, the final season has finally been aired in the UK. There have been massive changes for the Nine-Nine since Amy has given birth to her first child. […]
Jurassic Park is one of the biggest film franchises around. The original is a classic and the most recent films broke the billion-dollar barrier. The Jurassic World trilogy is concluding with Jurassic World Dominion by bringing together the original and current cast of characters. Four years after the events of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom dinosaurs have been roaming the globe. Humans have […]

Bright, fun, and honest, the coming-of-age story of Kamala Kahn (the future Ms. Marvel of the title) already feels like a different journey in the Marvel universe. More analogous to […]
After 37 years the Australian soap opera Neighbours is coming to end. The soap was popular in Australia and the UK, we Brits needed two showing a day. It was a show that created memorable characters like the Kennedys, Toadie, Paul Robinson, Harold Bishop, and many more. It is sad for fans to see the soap coming […]
It’s that time of year again! Time for PopCultureManiacs’ resident East Coast American to trek into Washington DC to report on the goings-on at the biggest fan convention in the Capital area: Awesome Con! While last year’s convention was all about recovery and the return of fan events during “Difficult Times”, this year celebrated much […]
