After the muddled resolution to the Debra-Ava feud last week, it was a bit of shock to see the pair are suddenly thick as thieves once more, working seamlessly together to craft jokes. And not even baby AJ’s christening was enough to throw the duo of their game. In fact, I would say that the […]

Hacks – Witch of the Week Review
You know how I said I hoped whatever boulder was about to be chasing Ava and Deborah down the hill into disaster wouldn’t be all that bad? Well, this is looking like it’s gonna be a doozy. But before I get into that, it looks like our other delightful duo – that would be Jimmy […]
The Last of Us – Feel Her Love Review
This week’s episode of The Last of Us had a delightful smattering of what makes the series work, as well as all the elements that drive me nuts. Which, to be honest, is a pretty impressive combination for a single hour of television. And the tease of a flashback episode next week? Yeah, that’s something […]
Hacks – Mrs. Table Review
So, the question I have after “Mrs. Table”, aka the episode where Ava and Deborah reunite once more, is did Deborah get off the hook a bit too easily? Honestly, yeah, she did. But then again, Ava was always going to forgive her at some point – she cares too much about her and desperately […]
The Last of Us – Day One Review
A bit of housecleaning before we dive into the review. I have not played The Last of Us and have (miraculously) managed to remain completely in the dark about the contents of the second game – upon which this and the third and final season of the series will be based. So, these reviews will […]
Hacks – Clickable Face Review
Well, well, well. I’m very intrigued with what Paul W. Downs, Jen Statsky, and Lucia Aniello have planned for the final set of episodes this season, because this is the first time we’ve really seen Deborah be the one who is hurt by Ava’s indifference towards her. Now, was Stacey (the always wonderful Michaela Watkins*) […]

Hacks – I Love LA Review
Anyone who watched Ugly Betty back in the early aughts knows that Mark Indelicato is a comedic talent. Sure, he was just a precocious kid back then, but he had incredible comedic timing and could still rip your heartstrings out at a moment’s notice. I had been waiting for a while to see when Hacks […]
The Last of Us – Through the Valley Review
A bit of housecleaning before we dive into the review. I have not played The Last of Us and have (miraculously) managed to remain completely in the dark about the contents of the second game – upon which this and the third and final season of the series will be based. So, these reviews will […]
Hacks – What Happens in Vegas Review
We knew going into this season that part of Deborah’s journey in her foray into hosting a late-night show was going to be learning a bit from Ava about how to manage a staff without flying off the handle and firing them at the drop of a hat. After all, we know Deborah has the […]
