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. The news, which was announced by Executive Producer Dean Devlin, cast and crew in a series of tweets and social media posts got the Blackblood faithful fired up and ready for more. […]
If there was one lasting impression from this past weekend’s New York Comic Con, it’s that the Star Trek franchise is still plenty strong and still delivers plenty of excitement to a passionate fan base.

It’s the reason that the Khylen voice-over in the final episode’s opening moments really resonated with me. I’d been thinking those same thoughts […]
To say there has been something of an “explosive” new development around The Capital would be an understatement. Episode 211 of “The Outpost” finished with something of a bang as it would appear gun powder has found its way into the realm.

Last week, Sky (Sky is Europe’s leading media and entertainment company.) announced a number of the new cast members for the second season of A Discovery of Witches. A Discovery of Witches season two is based on the ‘Shadow of Night’ novel from Deborah Harkness’s All Souls trilogy, and is currently being filmed. There […]
