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.
Things are definitely getting interesting with The Ring, but as we all know the big news this past week was the revelation that Amazon owner Jeff Bezos negotiated his way into reviving The Expanse for at last a fourth season. The news was a thunderclap announcement to the show’s fandom and one that certainly shows […]
Last week I mentioned the season finale feel of episode 306 of The Expanse, and judging by what we saw in Episode 307, that sentiment was fairly accurate. We jumped ahead some months after the events of last week’s episode to find that not only had Saddavir Errinwright been jailed, the secretary-general had resigned, the […]
Before we look at this week’s episode, “Immolation,” a few thoughts on the elephant in the Rocinante lunch room. Syfy’s announcement that this season will be its last with The Expanse hit fans hard. While I understand the ratings and why those are important to a company’s bottom line, I was disappointed with the news […]
What exactly is “the work?” While feeling sorry for the rapid development of the protomolecule in Katoa and the pain he is undergoing in the process, he did spit out a little bit of a tease, Golum-like. Linked as he is to the protomolecule collective consciousness, he told Dr. Strickland and Jules-Pierre Mao that “the […]
In the world of entertainment, perhaps Burt Gummer isn’t a name that immediately jumps off the page to the random fan. But to those who follow the Tremors franchise, it’s a name that creates quite a stir. Gummer is an iconic character that actor Michael Gross has watched grow over 28 years and five movies. […]
Our old friend Burt Gummer is facing a lot of change since last we saw him. He’s managing Chang’s store, the IRS is after him, he and his son continue to dance around their tense relationship, and he’s wearing a different hat (No, a different team). But for all that’s changed, the sixth Tremors offering […]
Let’s just say that “The Expanse” is 3-for-3 thus far in the new season and move along. Loved this episode. The show once again delivered a compelling and interesting episode that saw the Secretary-General ultimately up the ante on the war with Mars — to devastating consequences on earth’s soil. The finish of the episode […]
If the season-opener of The Expanse was a hearty sci-fi meal, then episode 2, “IFF,” was a well-earned and ample desert. Once again, it was an on-point example of what makes this show one of the leaders in the genre right now. I’m sure for you, the enthusiastic consumer of “The Expanse,” there have been […]
At long last, “The Expanse” has returned to the warm bosom of its passionate fandom. The season opener delivered so much of what we love about this show — taut storylines, emotional interaction, snappy editing, the delicious twists and turns, and of course, the three horsemen of the apocalypse — Bobbie Draper, Chrisjen Asavarala and […]
