“We had a problem, but we solved it.” -Art Garten One pair of pantyhose is a lot like any other. You could be forgiven for mixing up brands, for lacking Topaz exec Art Garten’s workmanlike ability to identify them by touch. They’re just pantyhose, right? But what about women? What about every woman in your […]
“Don’t worry, bro. None of this is canon.” That’s how Uncle Grandpa, star of a show so tonally divorced from Steven Universe that absolutely none of this should work at all, pops into Beach City. What follows is a bizarre adventure that’s equal parts Terry Gilliam cartoon, bad anime, and Fourth Wall demolition session. Steven, frustrated by his inability […]
Stars: Billy Crystal, Josh Gad, Stephnie Weir, Megan Ferguson | Created by Larry Charles, Ben Wexler, Billy Crystal, Matt Nix Isn’t awkward humor on a television series the best? You’re sitting there watching the show, letting the actors and the script do their job and as the awkwardness bores a hole through you, realization dawns on […]
It’s time once more for that big show of the year, the show of shows, the grand-daddy of them all, the biggest professional wrestling and sports entertainment event for fans and performers that there is. This year, held in California, the event features many matches featuring big names from the past and present of WWE, […]
Stars: Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Reid Scott, Anna Chlumsky, Timothy Simons | Created by Armando Iannucci Now that Veep: The Complete Third Season is being released on DVD and Blu-ray we get to see Selina Meyer (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) and her team of misfits at their truly scariest, campaigning to become the next president of the United States of […]
“Come on, aren’t you your own mom? You can do whatever you want.” Living up to a parent’s legacy can feel impossible. Steven lives in the void his mother left, a hole in the lives of every one of his parents, biological or otherwise. It’s easy to see the tension between his desire to step […]
It may be Wrestlemania week, but that doesn’t stop the DVD and Blu-ray releases still churning out. It gets hard to keep up at times with which pay-per-view was when, but this week WWE: TLC – Tables, Ladders & Chairs 2014 has been released. Not long to go till the Royal Rumble will be released […]
Stars: Thomas Middleditch, Martin Starr, Kumail Nanjiani, Zach Woods, T.J. Miller, Christopher Evan Welch, Matt Ross | Created by Alec Berg, Mike Judge I’m a fan of The Big Bang Theory and I always will be, but the criticism it often gets for mocking “nerds” is something hard to defend it from, because a lot of the humour is obviously […]
We are only a few weeks away from the 31st WrestleMania event, and the card is building up now, most of the matches having been announced. Some feuds are intriguing, others not so much, but it has potential to be an interesting event, and some of the matches could be very good indeed. Tonight it […]
If Nordic Noir hits like The Killing have taught us anything it’s that some of the best television doesn’t come from places like America or the United Kingdom but further afield. When you take the time to look a little further there are difference styles out there and for a lot of viewers burnt out […]
The return of Broadchurch raised one question, just where would they go with the story now? The answer is one that raises a few questions, such as did it really work? In taking the focus to court and also bringing in a past case a lot of good work from the first series was unravelled, […]
We are into March and it is only a little more than a month until WrestleMania 31 in California. Last week was one of the times when I felt like I’d wasted time watching RAW, so I was hoping the Road to WrestleMania might take a more interesting and entertaining turn tonight, and I’m glad […]
After what was a rather bland and unexciting PPV at Fastlane, WWE continue to hype the upcoming 31st WrestleMania event, an event in which many of the matches seem to be either confirmed, or all but confirmed with strong reasons to think they’ll happen. On the card, it seems we will see Roman Reigns in […]
The Road to WrestleMania continues, and we make a final PPV stop at the first WWE Fastlane PPV. When we leave this show tonight we should have a clearer view of what the big show in March will have in store for us, and hopefully we’ll have seen some interesting and entertaining matches and angles […]
WWE Survivor Series 2014 was an event that showed it was time for a product refresh. This was probably why the big story for the pay-per-view was Vince McMahon pitting Team Authority vs Team Cena in battle with the tease that we would see the downfall of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon… surely that couldn’t […]
The go-home show on the lead up to WWE’s February PPV, Fast Lane, should be a show that offers plenty of incentive to watch the main special event. This RAW should leave fans with every intention to watch Fast Lane and continue on the Road to WrestleMania. Of course, these go-home shows are hit and […]
Stars: Emelia Clarke, Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey, Natalie Dormer, Stephen Dillane, Kit Harington, Maisie Williams, Rory McCann | Based on the books by George R.R. Martin February is the time of year we realise that we still have another two months until Game of Thrones returns. A glimmer of hope though is the fact that […]
For the first time ever, Destruction of The Shield highlights “The Lunatic Fringe” Dean Ambrose, “The Juggernaut” Roman Reigns, and “The Architect” Seth Rollins as they join forces to lay down the law and dish out their own brand of personal justice in WWE. From The Shield’s days as rookies in NXT, to their shocking […]
Last Novembers UK stay at Liverpool for the WWE came at a particularly tumultuous time leading up to Survivor Series. The Authority had just been told the week prior by Mr McMahon that if they lose then they lose their power, so they continue to set about building the most dominant team they can after […]
We continue on the Road to WrestleMania 31 here with the second RAW of February 2015. Last week we saw Daniel Bryan beat Seth Rollins in order to gain a shot at Roman Reigns at WWE Fast Lane, with the winner of that match going to WrestleMania to face Brock Lesnar for the WWE World […]
Another year over in the WWE Universe (sick of that phrase yet?), which means another triple disc DVD set compiling the best moments of Raw and SmackDown from the last year, all of which you watch in full again on the WWE Network for only £9.99 a month (how about that one?). From Occupy Raw […]
