Three episodes into House of the Dragon and I remain absolutely flummoxed as to why the series is unfolding the way that it is. It’s not that the show is churning through years of time episode to episode – I understand that it wants to jump into the actual war for the Iron Throne and […]
In this week’s installment of House of the Dragon, the series once again presented us with a host of political maneuvering – and, much as with the series premiere, the various characters and their self-serving machinations felt out-and-out boring to watch. Where Game of Thrones could make the game of thrones fun, compelling, and suspenseful, […]
Well, here we are, just over three years after the finale of Game of Thrones, the sour taste of that final season of one of the most popular television series of the 21st century still lingering on our tongues, to begin another saga set in Westeros. This time, instead of diving into a sprawling epic […]
Kieran and Jean discuss all things related to HBO’s Game of Thrones
Hollyoaks is celebrating its 25th Anniversary. Being such a long-running soap opera there has been a high turnover of actors. Many have gone on to have successful acting careers. Tosin Cole and Mandip Gill became The Thirteenth Doctor’s companions, Wallis Day appeared in shows like The Royals and Krypton, and Carley Stenson is a musical […]

Remember when Game of Thrones went off the air back in May and everyone wondered if HBO would ever have another hit show that captured the cultural zeitgeist? Well, who would have thought it would only take them a few months to clean-up once again? For those of us who fell in love (or fell […]
A chill is in the air (at least in the Midwest and New England – sorry rest of the country) and fall is just around the corner. Which means it’s once again time for the Emmy Awards – a night for the television folks to pat themselves on the back for another year of way […]
I’ve been writing about television for the past six years, and for much of that time, Emmy Nomination day was my second least-favorite day of the year (the Emmy Awards themselves were my least-favorite day, for a variety of reasons). Every Tuesday, I would read through the list of nominees and get angry over how […]
