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’s a tough road to walk when you overcome long odds, death and betrayal to claim an apparent victory, only to see that victory swirl down the drain in a shower of explosions, fire and the hoped-for chance to change your fortunes. It’s so gut-wrenching, isn’t it? In Ep. 305 of Killjoys, “Attack The Rack,” […]
Dutch called it last week – it’s time to take back the RAC from the Hullen. And that’s the road Ep. 305 of Killjoys rolls down in “Attack The Rack.” Well, sort of. Our small band of intrepid war-seekers begin the process of cleansing their own RAC of the Hullen, but along the way encounter […]

And let’s face it, it’s even more enjoyable to find that the backstory reveals something that seems to run completely counter to that character’s current incarnation. We get […]
Backstory, backstory, backstory — how we love it so. Well, in Friday’s episode of Killjoys, “The Lion, The Witch & The Warlord,” we’re going to get a very interesting backstory from one of our characters, a backstory that will not only seem at odds with who the character is now, but one that is a […]
The reality that a new Star Trek offering is coming in the fall will be reinforced this week when Star Trek: Discovery makes itself felt at San Diego Comic-Con.

With each episode of Killjoys so far in season 3, doesn’t it feel like for every step Dutch, D’Avin and Johnny take forward in their hoped-for war with the Hullen, something develops that seems like two steps backward? Tough to get traction against the green goo, it appears. But they keep at it. So far […]
Friday approaches and that means that legions of Killjoys fans are wondering “What’s coming next?” Episode 303 of Killjoys, titled “The Hullen Have Eyes,” which gives us a little peek into what’s coming – and what’s coming will do what this show seems to always do – have us clamoring for more.

What’s better than a beloved sci-fi show with compelling characters and interesting storylines? A beloved sci-fi show that adds a fun arc celebrating the need for nerds, that’s what’s better. Fortunately, Ep. 302 of Killjoys, “A Skinner, Darkly,” delivers all of those components in a nice episode that not only pays homage to the nerd […]
You know what I like better than a good old cliffhanger of a season-finale? A season premiere that embraces that finale and drives you head first into a wild start to a new season.
