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.
Funny what a chance encounter can do to set feet on a path filled with dreams. Fortunately for Derek Robertson, the dream has become reality through hard work, opportunity and his own talent, culminating in the chance to churn out a pair of scripts for sci-fi fan favorite Killjoys. Robertson penned the wildly popular season […]
Forgive me if I sound an optimistic tone right now, but I think “Manifest” is starting to hit its stride. Episode 103, “Turbulence,” offered an intriguing collection of moments that, taken within the whole of the story, really opened up the show as we start to stretch toward the midway point. From the brain splatter […]
Let’s just call the Killjoys season 4 finale what it was — wildly satisfying and ominous. It would seem that for all the effort put into trapping The Lady in The Green, methinks she made it out, at least judging by the episode’s final scenes and the trailer for season 5. By the way, was […]
Well, to say I have a bone or two to pick with the Killjoys writers, showrunner and assorted other higher-ups would be an understatement. Killjoys Ep. 409 “The Kids Are Alright?” certainly lived up to its title, but in the process crushed my soul a little as we lost a couple of my favorites. Curse […]
Everyone has experienced the feeling of seemingly losing an hour or even a day. But NBC is taking the concept of lost time to a new level with its new show, “Manifest,” which will premiere Monday, Sept. 24. “Manifest” will look at the life adjustments passengers on Montego Air Flight 828 are forced to make […]
With all that’s going on in the Killjoys realm, episode 408 gave us quite the deep dive into the Jaqobis family dynamics. And while there was plenty of humor in “It Takes A Pillage,” there was also more than enough somber revelations and personality discoveries to conjure up a serious dish of sympathy for Johnny […]
Well, our beloved Dutch has the tools to deal with The Lady, and we know she has the talents. But does she have the time? That’s yet to be determined, but one thing’s for sure in this week’s episode of Killjoys, The Lady is on the move and there’s still plenty left to do to […]
It’s amazing the way thoughts, emotions and ideals can get jumbled and shaken when a child is thrown into the mix. Now, when that child is only a few days old, has the size of a 15-year-old, and possesses more than a little Hullen DNA running through him — well, things can go off the […]
Right out of the gate I have to note two mistakes I feel were made in Ep. 405 of Killjoys, “Greening Pains.” And I hope that these mistakes manifest a strong and dire response from those who have been wronged — as well as those who care about them. Mistake No. 1, the kidnapping of […]
At long last, we’ve gotten our first close-up taste of The Lady…and she’s (or It’s?) not to be trifled with. Episode 404 of Killjoys delivered all those little aspects of the show we love, including some very interesting moments that we’ll have to gnaw on a bit and see how it all tastes in the […]
