Titans: The Complete First Season – A Review
Have you heard that DC Comics started its own streaming service with original content? It’s true. Their debut show, Titans, has concluded its first season and is now available on DVD and BluRay. (Special thanks to the Normal Public Library for purchasing it after my request to do so.) I have to tell you, I…

Here Are Eleven General Items That I Hope Happen During the Final Game Of Thrones Episode
Be warned, spoilers abound … I know this final season of Game Of Thrones has been controversial to some, but I’ve been perfectly happy with it thus far. I will ultimately reserve my final judgement until the last episode’s conclusion, which I think is only fair. If anything, this concluding season has been one giant…

You Should Enroll In The Umbrella Academy
If you’re looking for a new show to binge, I highly recommend Netflix’s The Umbrella Academy. I just finished it last night and it’s one of the only series that I’ve ever watched that made me think to myself, “I can’t wait to watch this whole thing again.” There’s something absolutely delightful about this show…

This Season Of The Handmaid’s Tale Will Be My Last
We’re not Hulu subscribers, so when everyone heaped praise upon The Handmaid’s Tale, we had to wait until it came out on disc to experience it for ourselves. We were able to finally watch it a few months ago, and we can attest that it deserved all of the acclimation it received. Sure, it was…

GLOW: Season 2 — Even Better Than the First
GLOW: Season 2 outshines the first for the very simple reason that much of the groundwork for this ensemble cast has already been laid. Season 1 entertained and impressed in many unexpected ways, but it still had the task of introducing us to the characters and getting them onto the mat. Season 2 benefits in…

Jessica Jones: Season 2 – A Netflix Review
I really enjoyed the first season of Jessica Jones. The series had such a strong concept. It definitely wasn’t a super hero show, yet it featured a character with super human strength … who didn’t necessarily want her powers. She mostly just wanted to be left alone. The series felt far more like a thriller…

My Reaction To the First Episode Of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel
My wife and I have been meaning to watch this Amazon original for several weeks now, and last night we finally got around to the first episode. In a word, we would describe it as “charming.” If you’re unfamiliar with the plot, an upper-class Jewish housewife becomes a stand-up comic after her would-be comedian husband…
