If Ash vs Evil Dead is to last then it needs to bring more to the screen than just fight scene of the week, and inventive ways to provide the gore that keeps fans happy. Unfinished Business is an episode that shows that not only can we have an episode heavy in exposition, but we […]
After the initial victories in this season of The Walking Dead for Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and his group, it comes as no surprise that Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) would be looking for revenge. One thing we know though is the best laid plans never go as designed. Negan gathers his troops to attack the Hilltop, but an […]
Stars: Cress Williams, China Anne McClain, Nafessa Williams, Christine Adams | Developed by Salim Akil It took eight episodes but we finally found out Gambi’s dirty secrets and Jefferson Pierce is not happy. The writers did not hold back in Black Lightning’s latest episode as the focus shifted away from action and more about everyone’s […]
Terrorism, whether it be a threat or whether it be real is a tool to create both fear and paranoia. Put into a show like Philip K. Dick’s Electric Dreams and you end up with an episode like Safe and Sound where the insidious nature of technology is shown as a very real and relatable […]
If there is one thing we should know about horror films by now, it is never to have a funeral. This week’ Ash vs Evil Dead sees Ash (Bruce Campbell) try to make a good impression, with the usual disastrous results. Brandy (Arielle Carver-O’Neill) tries to say goodbye to her mother this week at her […]
The Walking Dead over the past few weeks has been dealing with how people deal with loss. This week though, it is back to life trying to survive. With reality of the situation starting to set in though, and vengeance still on some people’s minds, will Carl’s wishes ever come true? This week Daryl (Norman […]
We’re officially on the road to Wrestlemania and Fastlane marks the final pay per view stop for the Smackdown brand (and the last Smackdown-only PPV given that all pay per views are going multi-brand after Wrestlemania 34) with – frankly – a number of filler matches that look like they will add nothing to the […]

The latest one to hit the streaming giant […]
There are some television series that come at just the right time to tap into events going on in society. The Handmaid’s Tale has come at a time when politics is becoming polarised, where you are either “with” or “against” a certain political stance. Could what happens in The Handmaid’s Tale happen in our society? […]
One of the things that makes Philip K. Dick’s Electric Dreams stand out as a show is that it raises questions about today’s society. Autofac looks at our reliance on the production line, churning out everything the consumer ever needs. Most importantly it is also about the fears we have of the automation of the […]
Stars: Cress Williams, China Anne McClain, Nafessa Williams, Christine Adams | Developed by Salim Akil All is not well in the Black Lightning universe this week. Lynn and Anissa are fighting over the future of Anissa as a superhero, an argument Anissa thinks she won because her mother does not have super powers and does […]
If there is one thing we expect from Ash vs Evil Dead it is a lot of a certain type of bodily fluid (blood). When the theme for season three is family and Ash (Bruce Campbell) having kids, there was only a matter of time that another type of fluid came into play. After the […]
Now that The Walking Dead has featured one of its biggest deaths to date, the fallout continues. The question is of course how the characters deal with their loss, and what does it show of them. In this episode we see sides of people that we may not like, and some surprising revelations. Consolidating forces, […]
Stars: Cress Williams, China Anne McClain, Nafessa Williams, Christine Adams | Developed by Salim Akil Black Lightning returns after a week off and the last time we saw Black Lightning, he was lying in a parking lot, beat down by his own armor and Whale’s henchman Joey Toledo. Luckily, Lightning has resourceful friends as Gambi […]
Being a child sucks, especially during puberty. To face the possible divorce of your parents too is something that just makes matters worse, but what if on top of that aliens are replacing people, including your father? That is the subject of this episode of Philip K. Dick’s Electric Dreams. When Charlie Cotrell (Jack Gore) […]
It has been way too long since the last Ash vs Evil Dead, so I had high hopes for the start of season 3. The first episode not only brought the show back, but brought Ash (Bruce Campbell) a new member to his family, and maybe hints of the medieval past. With Ash opening up […]
Now that The Walking Dead is back for the second part of season two, we all knew it would be an emotional episode. Focusing on not only death, but also life, there is a strange hope that comes out of one of the darkest episodes the show has given us. Honour not only gives a […]
Stars: Cress Williams, China Anne McClain, Nafessa Williams, Christine Adams | Developed by Salim Akil One of the more enjoyable aspects of the Black Lightning series is the series’ ability to balance the superhero dynamic with the characters’ personal lives and while episode five is more superhero friendly than previous episodes, it still delivers on […]
Netflix and DreamWorks have just released the official trailer for the FIFTH(!) season of Voltron: Legendary Defender – which premieres on Netflix next month.

If you’ve watched Star Trek: Discovery and though “this isn’t my Star Trek” it is fair to say that now the first season of the show is done, that should not be the case. While Discovery may be different, there are many themes that are deeply woven into Star Trek lore that has made it […]
Black Lightning’s fourth episode is a rebound episode after last week’s lackluster attempt and my love for the series returns, not that it was ever in question. The series is still doing a lot of world building but this episode seems to take a few monumental steps instead of Bill Murray’s “baby steps” from last […]
It’s been awhile since we left Tony Soprano eating with his family in that diner. Two whole years have passed since Don Draper dreamed up his last big ad campaign at that mountain retreat. In just over a year’s time, Westeros will be through with fighting and the battle for the Iron Throne will be […]
