Channel Zero Episode 1 Review: “You Have to Go Inside”

First of all: I’m in trouble. My partner is sharing their Shudder library with me. I have so much new, old and in-between spooky material to watch now. This is a distress signal. Send help. Okay, I’m kidding, but now that we’ve…

Dr Who “The Sontaran Stratagem” & “The Poison Sky” – Review

I don’t know how to phrase this without feeling like I sound dumb, but thanks to Dyslexia, I don’t usually sit and read books daily or back-to-back. Unless there is an audiobook worth listening to, once I’m done with one I stop…

Doctor Who Series 4 “Planet Of The Ood” – Review

You know something Lincoln didn’t say, “Yeah, we’ll get to talking about that slavery in a minute, but first, I want to tell you about this deal I got!” Anyway, we’ll get to that whole Ood-slavery business in a minute. I want…

Doctor Who Series 4 “The Fires of Pompeii” – Review

I was hoping this would have been later in Donna’s run with The Doctor, but here we are. This is why I don’t like Donna’s character. The whiplash you get from her first three episodes is like listening to my music playlists.…

The Boys Season 1 – Review

Warning: The following article may contain embedded videos that may contain strong language, graphical violence, and other scenes readers may find distressing. Reader’s discretion is advised. I could have sworn both Mike and Taylor have spoken about this ad nauseum, along with a…

Doctor Who Series 4 “Partners in Crime” – Review

There was this thing around about 2006-2007 that was in just about every show of the time that I like: Hustle, Ugly Betty, and Doctor Who. This was the first and only episode in Who to use it, and I think that works. It…

Lovecraft Country Episode 10 Review: “Full Circle”

Warning: This article contains discussion of homophobia, transphobia, death, suicide, and spoilers for Lovecraft Country. Lovecraft Country‘s season 1 finale has come and gone. As it ends, it leaves us sitting on the other side of a wild ride of trauma, grief,…

Doctor Who “Time Crash” & “Voyage of the Damned” – Review

Yes, you are reading the title correctly; I’m including the supplemental episode “Time Crash,” but why? Well, it is two Doctors (5 and 10), it is as Moffat-esque as Moffat can get with only a few moments, and it is the lead…

Lovecraft Country Episode 9 Review: “Rewind 1921”

Warning: This article contains discussion of racism, violence, homophobia, murder, child abuse, and death. Engaging with (and relating to) fantasy, science fiction, horror, and any combination of the above will often, if not always, require accepting some otherworldly or even outlandish logic.…

Dr Who “The Sound of Drums” & “Last of the Time Lords” – Review

I’ll be the first one to admit it. I don’t think the B and C plots of this final story of Series 3, starting with last week’s “Utopia,” stand up too well. Don’t get me wrong: I like them, and I think…
