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.
I had to feel a little sorry for “Mando” in Chapter 11, “The Heiress,” as he appears to have been taught some things about his people that may not be as accurate as he thinks. The Mandalore code, it would seem, isn’t as cut-and-dried with some elements of the Mandalorians as it is with others. […]
While I understand there were some interesting individual storylines in Episode 306 of The Outpost, I have to say that, for me, “Kill the Rat, Kill the Kinj” boiled down to a simple, unpleasant reality – many of our heroes were struggling with some emotional turmoil as Yavalla seems to be making a successful run […]
When you take on a passenger, you just never know the level of adventure that will come with them. Din Djarin found that in Episode 202 of The Mandalorian. Titled, “The Passenger,” this little romp of an icy adventure proved to be more of a fight for survival than we probably originally suspected. But fight […]
I must admit I didn’t think it was going to play out like this. If nothing else, episode 305 of The Outpost left me a little unsettled as I thought the Yavalla-Kinj issue was going to be settled by Janzo and Wren’s considerable mental capabilities. But that was not what transpired, was it? No, the […]
It’s hard to accurately describe and encounter that just brightens the day in unexpected ways. But that’s what happened recently when I got the chance to sit down (via Zoom) and chat with two of the stars of The Outpost on The CW. One has been with the show from the outset, the other a […]
And with that, The Mandalorian is back. The first episode of season 2 dropped Friday and while it didn’t get us much closer to Mando finding “the child’s” people, it did offer us a fun detour to a place we know so very well. Star Wars fans had to be tingling with delight as this […]
You knew it wasn’t going to stay a secret very long, but the swiftness with which Yavalla and her parasitic kinj were found out in episode 304 of The Outpost was both impressive and gratifying – and witnessed by no fewer than three people. Can you say allies in a righteous cause? I can, and […]
At long last, that which was lost was found at The Outpost. But what does it all mean, this missing Kinj that is now in the mind, and apparently heart and soul of the Blackblood priestess Yavalla? Oh, it’s a tangled web and one that we should try to unravel, but there’s plenty of mystery […]
Needless to say, the last 14 episodes of The Outpost have been quite the emotional and physical rollercoaster ride for one Garret Spears. He’s been seduced and manipulated via drugs by Sana and The Three, which sent him on a semi-murderous rampage wherein he killed his own father, stabbed Talon, and eventually stood over Queen […]
At long last – at long, long last, the season 3 premiere has arrived and let me just say that I thought it was a seamless transition from the end of season 2 into the newest episode of The Outpost. I have to hand it to The CW, you are allowing something special to be […]
