Daisy Jones and The Six Review
There’s something special about Daisy Jones and The Six, the limited series from Prime Video adapting the bestselling book from Taylor Jenkins Reid*. The series takes what could be (and, despite its strengths, sometimes is) a rather simplistic look at a smash hit rock group from the 70s who called it quits at the height […]

Star Trek: Picard – Disengage Review
Well, there it is. Jack Crusher appears to be Picard’s son. Even though there’s no way in hell that man is under 30 years old and the timeline doesn’t line up at all. Which is why I’m still holding out hope that there’s some other explanation coming (perhaps another clone of Picard, who Beverly discovered […]
