Superman & Lois (S1 Review) | They Made Him Make Sense
As superhero dramas go this one is top-notch, Todd Helbing (The Flash, Black Sails, The Mob Doctor) and Greg Berlanti have outdone themselves. They've updated and elevated the Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Superman show, which prominently featured Lois Lane and Clark Kent/ Superman as leads but they've seamlessly added their teenage … Continue reading Superman & Lois (S1 Review) | They Made Him Make Sense

Loki (Season 1 Review) | A Somewhat Complex Talkathon
I've said this before and I'll say it again, out of all the Marvel Cinematic Universe Television Series that were announced Loki was the one that I was the most excited for. Not because I am a Loki or Tom Hiddleston mega stan - Hiddleston can get it I'll admit that - but the look, … Continue reading Loki (Season 1 Review) | A Somewhat Complex Talkathon

Trese (S1 Review) | Filipino Myth and Folklore with Shades of Familiar Heroes
If it wasn't for Geeked Week this show would have passed me by, but I'm glad I found it. It's a Filipino animated series on Netflix directed by Jay Oliva who's worked on animated shows and movies like Young Justice, and Justice League Dark to name a few. Based on the comics by writer Budjette … Continue reading Trese (S1 Review) | Filipino Myth and Folklore with Shades of Familiar Heroes
Lupin (Part 2 Review) | A Sameness that Still Works…Kind of
I thoroughly enjoyed Lupin (Part 1) it was so engaging, nicely paced, and full of social commentaries that did not impede the story at all. Omar Sy (X-men Days of Future Past, The Untouchables) is amazing in the role, and the show is a nice spin on Maurice LeBlanc's The adventures of Arsène Lupin, gentleman … Continue reading Lupin (Part 2 Review) | A Sameness that Still Works…Kind of
