Episode 2 is full of excitement and intrigue. Matthew and Diana make a connection. Witches are betraying witches. Matthew has cravings he must control. There are evil and scary vampires in Venice. And we meet a daemon. The episode starts in Venice adding another wrinkle to the story. The scenes in Venice are absolutely beautiful. […]
Star Trek: Discovery’s penultimate episode, “Such Sweet Sorrow,” certainly had plenty of that, didn’t it? Tears were spilled, goodbyes were said and the very real feeling that, as we head into next week’s season 2 finale, much of what we underwent this season is going to change in season 3. Personnel changes? Most assuredly as […]
Faith, and the struggle to keep it, has always been an undercurrent within the show “Knightfall.” In episode 203, “Faith,” that struggle is on full display, particularly the highs and lows within that struggle for several of our main characters. The high? Obviously, the bonding of Talus and Landry in the midst of the slaughter […]
My Top 10 Moments from the first episode of A Discovery of Witches. Finally! A Discovery of Witches is accessible to all and the wait was worth it. The season premiere aired tonight on AMC and BBCAmerica at 8pm central. When I watch a show or movie that has been adapted from a book, I […]
Captain Christopher Pike got a glimpse into his future, a future that fans of the Star Trek world have long known would befall him. The burns, the paralysis, the wheelchair, all of it was in full living color in Pike’s minds-eye during Ep. 212 of Star Trek: Discovery, “Through the Valley of Shadows.” I have […]

And I got […]
While we’ve been somewhat aware of the power and purpose of “Control” over the last few episodes of Star Trek: Discovery, episode 211, “Perpetual Infinity” gave us the clearest picture yet of just how monumental a task it really will be to save sentient life in the galaxy. “Control” is not playing around with this […]
When last we saw Landry and his Templar brothers, they were engaged in a cacophony of battle with King Phillip, Gawain and a band of mercenary soldiers brought on by an illicit love affair and pregnancy. The King was repulsed, but not before letting Landry have a look at his sword piercing the queen’s belly. […]
If there’s anything that gives me total joy (Besides watching Emperor Georgiou dominate a situation – more on that later), it’s a good twist within a twist with a little side of twist. Talk about satisfying, that’s exactly what episode 210 of Star Trek: Discovery, “Red Angel,” served up for viewers the other night. Wow, […]
Let me just get this out of the way from the outset, I loved the opening scenes from Star Trek: Discovery’s latest episode (208), “If Memory Serves.” Just using old TOS footage of Pike’s previous visit to Talos IV from back in the day really added a connective thread to the Star Trek realm as […]
