The interesting thing about Hacks (or, at this stage of the game, perhaps it’s both a feature and a bug of the series structure) is that each season tells an arc and ends with a reset. Usually, that reset sees Ava and Deborah at odds for some reason – whether it is Deb trying to […]
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 remaining seasons of the series will be based. So, these reviews will not call […]
After writing about TV for so long, it’s rare that a series manages to pull one over on me. But I’ll be damned if Hacks didn’t completely hoodwink me with Deborah’s selfless sacrifice this week – the repercussions of which will reverberate into next season. There’s an adage that drama is about characters learning and growing […]
This might end up being an unpopular opinion, but the much anticipated return of Pedro Pascal’s Joel to The Last of Us via flashback this week left me mostly cold. Now, that’s not the fault of Pascal, who was acting his ass off throughout the episode, but more so the fault of Craig Mazin and […]

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 […]
