Spent the last 30 years telling the stories of people, places and things I thought other people would find interesting. Rediscovered my nerd/geek karma late in life and get to write about that as well. Oh, also spent three decades as a high school/college coach (track, cross country and hoops). A passionate comic con enthusiast, sci-fi lover and enjoy alien invasion shows on the big screen and small.
It only took a few minutes into the inaugural episode of The Mandalorian on Disney+ to realize that Star Wars can and does work on the small screen. The Mandolorian opened Tuesday on the new Disney streaming service and delivered just short of 40 minutes of something new tied to something old and dear – […]
November 12 can’t come soon enough for Star Wars fans (and sci-fi fans in general) eager for their first look at “The Mandalorian,” the live action TV show that will drop on Disney+ and take us to new worlds and stories. While the first episode is still days away, “The Mandalorian” just gave us a […]
There was a collective sigh of relief this week when The CW announced that it was renewing “The Outpost” for a third season. The news, which was announced by Executive Producer Dean Devlin, cast and crew in a series of tweets and social media posts got the Blackblood faithful fired up and ready for more. […]
If there was one lasting impression from this past weekend’s New York Comic Con, it’s that the Star Trek franchise is still plenty strong and still delivers plenty of excitement to a passionate fan base. This year, NYCC pulled off a Trek double, delivering not only a trailer for the new Picard series, but doubling […]
Well, I can’t say I”m surprised by how season 2 of “The Outpost” ended. While I suspected there would be a path to victory for the queen and her followers, what came in the aftermath of that triumph sort of summed up the overall experience with the blackbloods to date for the queen, Talon and […]
It’s hard not to enjoy the voice on the other end of the phone when Thom Allison offers some thoughts on the conclusion of Killjoys, the joys of playing the role of Pree, and the passionate fandom that loved it all. Allison is warmth, energy and joy as he talks about the role and all […]
Sitting in the emotional aftermath of the final episode of Killjoys, I was struck by how powerfully one aspect of this show hit me early on, then grew as the series progressed. It’s the reason that the Khylen voice-over in the final episode’s opening moments really resonated with me. I’d been thinking those same thoughts […]
To say there has been something of an “explosive” new development around The Capital would be an understatement. Episode 211 of “The Outpost” finished with something of a bang as it would appear gun powder has found its way into the realm. But that wasn’t all that was new in this episode, titled “Nothing Short […]
It’s hard to believe we’re at the penultimate episode for Killjoys as a series. Episdoe 509, ‘Terraformance Anxiety’ has put all the pieces of the board in play in what is surely to be quite the series ender. But I have to admit that that realization is somewhat sobering and disheartening on many levels. A […]
I had been waiting for this moment for most of Season 2 and it finally happened. I must admit that I took great joy in Talon coming to her senses at last. Fortunately, the force of her boot proved to be the remedy to a problem I’d long suspected she had. I took great pleasure […]
