The Big Door Prize, the new dramedy series from AppleTV+ (adapted from M.O. Walsh’s book of the same name) looks at how group-think – and predictions of the future – can impact a town and force people to take a good hard look at their lives and who they want to become. The plot itself […]

Kiff is a musical comedy animated series by Lucy Heavens and Nic Smal. They are known for their work in the animation industry, either script writing, storyboarding, or voice acting.

65 Review
65 is a high-concept sci-fi survival thriller that sees Adam Driver crash landing on Earth 65 million years ago. Mills (Driver) is a pilot who is hired to lead a two-year expedition into deep space. When Mills’ ship encounters an asteroid field, he’s forced to crash land on an undiscovered planet. The only other survivor is […]
Shazam! Fury of the Gods Review
Billy Batson and his family return for a second Shazam! cinematic adventure, four years after the first. This time they must face up against powerful Greek Gods. Billy Batson (Asher Angel) and his foster siblings have been superheroes for four years. They suffer from poor public relations, being dubbed the ‘Philly Fiasco.’ Even worse for them, a pair […]
Star Trek: Picard – The Bounty Review
If there’s one clear theme in this final season of Picard, outside of the delivery of fan service by the truckload – done in such a way that it neither feels like it’s pandering nor like it’s simply checking a box, no small feat indeed – it’s family, both in the Fast and the Furious […]
The Mandalorian – Chapter 20: The Foundling Review
After last week’s detour to see how Doctor Pershing was acclimating himself to his new life in the New Republic (not great, Bob!), this week returns us fully to the action of the Mandalorian cult as Grogu begins his Mandalorian training and Bo-Katan further enmeshes herself with her new family through orchestrating a successful rescue […]
Scream VI Review

Since the events of Scream (2022), Sam (Melissa Barrera) and Tara (Jenna Ortega) have moved to New York to escape Woodsboro. Another pair of killers dress up as Ghostface and plan to kill the Carpenter sisters so they […]
Star Trek: Picard – Imposters Review
If I had to pick a favorite Star Trek: The Next Generation character, it would have to be Q. Even after the debacle of last season of Picard, he has a special place in my TV-loving heart. But if I had to pick a second character? Hands down Ro Laren. I remember watching her appearance […]
Extrapolations Review
Extrapolations, the new anthology drama set to debut on AppleTV+ this Friday, is not going to be everyone’s cup of tea. And, even for people who can laud its big narrative swings, I suspect it will struggle to find an audience throughout its eight episode running time. That’s not a dig at the performances, the […]
The Mandalorian – Chapter 19: The Convert
Well, that was far and away the best episode of this season of The Mandalorian, and it is a tad worrisome that such a strong episode relied very little on any of the Mandalorians (although, there was a nice bookend of scenes that were the strongest outing we’ve had from Mando in a story and […]
