Talk about treading some familiar ground. Episode 105 of The Mandalorian, titled “The Gunslinger,” took us back to a familiar place. And I, for one, enjoyed our little walk down memory lane on the planet Tatooine. And on that lonely husk of sandy space junk, The Mandalorian got a chance to demonstrate some of those […]
Of all the tasty morsels that Disney+ has delivered, I’m delighted to be feasting on one of my favorites from the past. I honestly believe that Gargoyles is one of those bygone series that was, and remains, highly underrated. If you love fantasy and adventure, this series is perfect for you. And, I’m happy to […]
Yes, December is dawning, but there’s still time to get the gift that keeps on giving at warp factor 7 – for someone you care about or just something you want to put in your own stocking. Star Trek Christmas gifts are that rare “something special” that let’s the nerd revel in Kirk, Spock, L’Rell, […]
You knew it wasn’t going to be that easy, right? The chance to find a home for Baby Yoda seemed to be within The Mandalorian’s grasp. Unfortunately, it was not to be as our wandering baby-sitting bounty hunter learned soon enough that he and his ward leave a big wake – and there are plenty […]
Well, you could kind of sense something like this was going to happen when The Mandalorian got his first glimpse of Yoda Jr., didn’t you?

Looking through the queues of movies and old TV shows that are now available on Disney+ can be a bit daunting. There’s a ton to get through and you wonder when the streaming service is at full strength if it will be a bit overwhelming. But that’s the future. For those of us looking into […]
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 – […]
Reviewing a new show, especially one adapted from other material, is a tricky business. If that previous material was much loved, and has a devoted following, it gets even harder. And if the reviewer doesn’t know that previous material well, or not at all, it’s a difficult road to navigate. But not every watcher knows […]
There was a collective sigh of relief this week when The CW announced that it was renewing “The Outpost” for a third season.
