Review: I wasn't sure if I was even going to check this out because I don't think that I'm the right demographic but I've had a hard day and my best friend was there for me. So I thought of this show when I wanted to wine down. It is has cliché has you think … Continue reading Firefly Lane (S1 Premiere Review) | Interesting Enough To Watch It Through But Not Binge

WandaVision (Pilot Review) | Edging Their Sweaty Fans with Easter Eggs and a Mystery
WandaVision posters were brilliant and did give us an idea of what they were going for, a weird, trippy but sophisticated show. However, what they didn't tell us was how far they'd go with it. I kind of love that the sitcoms weren't just a gimmick. They commit to it with a lot of the … Continue reading WandaVision (Pilot Review) | Edging Their Sweaty Fans with Easter Eggs and a Mystery

A Discovery of Witches (S2 Premiere Review) | Engrossing and Beautiful
Review: The series picks up right where we left off in season one, and let me tell you they're moving things along and I love it. The story unfolds faster than in "Shadow of Night," like season one it's leaner and to the point. The show has always had a clean crisp look but this … Continue reading A Discovery of Witches (S2 Premiere Review) | Engrossing and Beautiful

The Watch (Pilot Review) | A Farscape Throwback with A Doctor Who Vibe
Review: I am yet to read the books so I'm just getting a feel for the characters in this two episode premiere. They're all different and potentially interesting. This distant secondhand dimension has a lot of elements going for it. The most surprising thing though is the aesthetic, and tone of the show. Not that … Continue reading The Watch (Pilot Review) | A Farscape Throwback with A Doctor Who Vibe
