Was that a perfect ending to Agatha All Along? No. But did the series come closer to fully sticking the landing than pretty much every single MCU series to date? Absolutely. I’d say it was probably only a minor deduction for a step at the end, to continue the metaphor a bit longer. On the […]

Agatha All Along – Episode Seven Review
This show, man. This show. What an absolute stunner of an episode, taking full advantage of having a heavyweight like Patti LuPone at their disposal, writers Gia King and Cameron Squires crafted an episode perfectly attuned to her unique set of skills – even if that didn’t include her getting to sing a solo version […]
Agatha All Along – Episode Six Review
Well, there we have it. The origin story of the MCU’s version of Wiccan, a character with complex origins in the Marvel comics (although all of them do intersect with Wanda Maximoff in some fashion). And while it was pretty close to what most folks online had guessed – he was once William Kaplan (and […]
Agatha All Along – Episode 5 Review
For the first time in its run, this episode felt almost incomplete. Sure, we had a couple of interesting (and sad) revelations within it, but this particular task didn’t have the same heft as the previous two* and even though we lost another member of the coven (and Rio got another body for her troubles […]
Agatha All Along – Episode Four Review
Well, I think we can put together just what went down between Rio (or is it Blackheart?*) and Agatha all those years ago – leading to their estrangement and everything that has happened to Agatha since. And even without that major revelation, this was a stellar installment of Agatha All Along, providing a number of […]
Agatha All Along – Episode Three Review
Fare thee well Mrs. Hart, we hardly knew you. And, judging from that final line of the episode, neither did Agatha, whose selfish needs brought you on this trip and led to your unfortunate death. However, the death of Sharon means that the coven is now in need of a Green Witch – preferably the […]
Agatha All Along – Episodes One and Two Review
I’ll wholly admit to being skeptical about the decision to launch a spin-off of the exceptional – and, frankly, best MCU television series to date – WandaVision centered about Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha Harkness when it was announced. I mean, what was there to say about the character, whose revelation – and snappy song – was […]
Tiny Beautiful Things Review
I had incredibly high hopes for Tiny Beautiful Things. Kathryn Hahn, who is having a hell of a moment, leading a dramedy about a woman falling apart while trying to provide advice to others? That sounds like the recipe for a truly great series. Throw in Merritt Weaver – who always makes everything better, which […]
Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery Review
If you were a fan of the original Knives Out film – you know, the surprise smash-hit whodunit from Rian Johnson that dominated at the box office, scored several Oscar nominations, and gave the world a new appreciation for Daniel Craig’s comedic timing – you’ve likely been waiting with bated breath for its sequel, Glass Onion: […]
The Shrink Next Door Review
Putting Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Kathryn Hahn, and Casey Wilson into a limited dark comedy series sounds like the perfect recipe for a hit. And I will admit to being incredibly excited to dig into The Shrink Next Door, the eight-episode AppleTV+ series that has all four sensational actors bouncing off each other. But boy, […]
