Okay, Russell T Davies, I can appreciate that fun bit of trolling at the expense of fans and critics you slotted into “Lux.” Meta callouts don’t always work for me, but this one? Yeah, I chuckled. Especially because “Blink” really is the best episode of the modern run of Doctor Who. But you know what? […]
Now that I have completed my watch of the seven English language seasons of The Traitors currently available to us in the US (all seasons discussed below are streaming on Peacock – well worth the money to snag the streaming service, for reasons I’ve outlined in previous reviews), I come to you with a definitive […]

The Iron Curtain has been lifted and the Soviet […]
