Doctor Who “The End of Time” – Review

Where do I even start? This is like reviewing “An Unearthly Child,” or both “The Day of the Doctor” and “The Time of the Doctor” at the same time. To downplay what “The End of Time” is, it is Russell T Davies’…

Channel Zero Season 2 Episode 5 Review: “The Damage”

Warning: This article contains mention of self-harm, and slight spoilers for Channel Zero. Through the trajectory of watching and getting acquainted with “No-End House,” I nearly feel as though I’ve vacillated back and forth from week to week. Last week, my concerns…

Doctor Who “The Waters Of Mars” – Review

Mars, what a dump! It is another one of those bloody base under siege episodes, I am sick of these under siege episodes. They are always a bit drab and there is hardly ever anything interesting about them. In fact, one of the…

Channel Zero Season 2 Episode 4 Review: “The Exit”

Warning: This article contains mentions of transphobia, racism, and slight spoilers for Channel Zero. Last week, I wrote about my cautious, intrigued optimism for the second half of “No End House.” Because of that, it is disappointing and frustrating to say that…

Doctor Who “Planet Of The Dead” – Review

Ahhh, “Planet of the Dead.” This is one of my all-time favorite episodes of Doctor Who. Usually, I’d do a bit of a ramble here about something stupid like books, audio dramas, or how the T.A.R.D.I.S was a bit boring and non-functional…

Channel Zero S2 Ep3 Review: “Beware the Cannibals”

Warning: This article contains slight spoilers for Channel Zero. “Beware the Cannibals,” the mid-season episode for “No-End House,” keeps Margot at its center. Understandably, as she seems to be the primary audience stand-in/protagonist and picks up where her wariness-inducing tete-a-tete with her…

Doctor Who “The Next Doctor” – Review

Merry Chrimbo! Wait, I’m a few weeks late, aren’t I? These TARDIS’s(?), you can never get the help you need with these things; unless you put the stabilizers on, but that’s boring. They are boringers, great big boringers. Nonetheless, there is more Doctor…

Channel Zero Season 2 Episode 2 Review: “Nice Neighborhood”

Warning: This article contains slight spoilers for Channel Zero season 2. “No-End House”‘s second episode, “Nice Neighborhood,” sets aside more overt horror for surreal, more ominous thriller fare. Creeping along at a slow (but not glacial) pace, the episode starts to contend…

Doctor Who “Revolution Of The Daleks” – Review

Roll up, roll up for the Magical Nostalgia tour! Three guineas, twelve shillings, and one angel for a single adult. Kids get bored to death for free. Oops, that gives away the game, if my near disdain of Chris Chibnall wasn’t apparent…

Channel Zero Season 2 Episode 1 Review: “This Isn’t Real”

Warning: This article contains mentions of child sexual assault, and slight spoilers for Channel Zero: No-End House. With the new year, comes a new season. Well, not so much, but new to me. Channel Zero‘s second season, “No-End House,” hints at an…
