I’ve been here a long time, happy to be Senior Editor. My kids are ok with me being a nerd (at least I think so, but they’ve left home, so, like, who knows). Hubby rolls his eyes. Covering Outlander and a variety of other current shows, movies and books.
The newest entry into the realm of odd shows from Starz is The Rook, a fascinating twist on the “enhanced human” genre. Like X-Men and its TV semi spin-off, The Gifted, The Rook focuses on a group of humans with amazing powers, caught up in intrigues, danger, and mystery. Based on the novel by Daniel […]
I made the mistake of watching this episode of Handmaid’s Tale right before I went to bed, a couple of weeks ago (yes, reviewers get them early. It’s not always a good thing.). For me, this has been the most intense, and the most disturbing, episode of the entire series. And while the Handmaid’s Tale […]
If you have to have all the “stuff,” whether it’s t-shirts, jewelry, bags, Funkos or ahem, all of the above, here’s a new one for you! Official licensed Outlander trading cards from Cryptozoic aren’t new – we’ve already had three seasons of them, but how about a PREMIUM set with even bigger and better autographs […]
If Season 1 of The Handmaid’s Tale could be summed up as “shock,” and Season 2 as “survival,” Season 3 is certainly starting out as “resist.” Sure, we’ve seen bits and pieces of a resistance in 1 and 2, but now, it seems to be organizing, coalescing, aided however oddly by one of Gilead’s early […]
We say it all the time – “because she wrote a book.” Yes, Diana’s books have brought us together – but they’ve also inspired others to become authors, and drawn those who have written their own books to the fandom! So, it’s only fitting that we fill this Droughtlander with some new books by our […]
How many times have you watched every episode of Outlander’s Season 4? Are you ready for something new? Well, something sort-of new? In just under 2 months, you’ll have it – deleted scenes, scenes specially developed, gag reel and more! On May 27 and 28, the Season 4 DVD and BluRay sets, and the Collector’s […]
I love Toy Story. This was the first movie we took our son to; we’ve followed Buzz and Woody from Sid’s backyard, to Big Al’s Toy Barn, and now – in a fun Super Bowl commercial – apparently to a carnival!!! But it doesn’t look like so much fun for our friends. We quote one […]
If you thought Seasons 1 and 2 of the dystopian-but-much-too-close Handmaid’s Tale were disturbing, be ready for even more mental confusion. I can’t wait until the new season starts! Margaret Atwood’s novel is soon to have a sequel (The Testaments, out in September), but for right now, we’ll have to do with this new trailer […]
This movie needs to come with a warning for parents of daredevil kids – a go-kart and a slide can have some major consequences in young kids with big imaginations. On March 15, Wonder Park, a new Nickelodeon movie, will let kids with huge imaginations know that they’re not alone! And adults who have given […]
Following the fourth season finale episode, Sam Heughan did a Q&A with fans on Twitter! Can’t wait. #AskSam https://t.co/bP8PXiy6Eq — Richard Rankin (@RikRankin) January 28, 2019 Can’t wait. #AskSam https://t.co/bP8PXiy6Eq — Richard Rankin (@RikRankin) January 28, 2019 Q I’ll be heading to spin class at 6, but that one tear that hovered before falling. Perfect […]
