There are times when I don’t really want to write a review, because the episode (and I’m not just talking about Outlander – I review other things) is just so bad, and I really don’t like saying bad things about shows I like. And there are episodes, like this one, that make me not want […]
This week, Outlander took us “Down the Rabbit Hole” – a reference to Alice in Wonderland, where nothing is what it seems, and the most amazing things can happen. Like many episodes of Outlander, fans seem to be really divided on this one. We had a couple of great (in my opinion) episodes recently – […]
When all was said and done, when the blood had finished spilling and more of the Nighflyer crew had perished, Karl D’Branin got what he really wanted all along — first contact with the Volcryn. But I’m wondering if it really is ‘first contact’ in the traditional sense. After all, he’s “going home” and they […]
This year’s big crossover event is in full swing and it comes in three parts! The first two were featured as episodes of The Flash and Arrow, while the finale will be an episode of Supergirl. I just loved seeing all of these superheroes together and working toward the common goal of, you guessed it, […]
With tonight’s episode, I’m beginning to hope that season 4 has found its direction and tone. Two episodes in a row now that feel like one show! Another thoughtful, well-written, beautifully acted story that truly feels like it follows the ones before – and deserves our sincere admiration. Lord John shows up at Fraser’s Ridge! […]
To say that Syfy’s first five episodes of “Nightflyers” offered a dark and dangerous prelude to what comes next would be a classic understatement. The major players aboard the Nightflyer all seem to have some kind of intrusive issue they are dealing with as the search for first contact continues. What have we learned through […]
This will probably be the shortest review I’ve written – because of my weekend jaunt to Thru the Stones, I’m very late getting this done, and the next episode is sitting in my screener account hollering at me to watch it. So let’s talk highlights of Savages! I loved the little home-building touches in this […]
This episode was a fun race down memory lane! Quite literally, in fact. Nora comes up with a plan to combat Cicada’s power-dampening meta-knife, and that plans involves time traveling back to the most critical points of past seasons (basically to the big bad boss fights, minus DeVoe). Despite previous seasons telling us that time […]
This week’s episode was primarily about Oliver readjusting to his civilian life after getting out of prison, but not all is what he’d hoped it would be. There’s still plenty of crime and unease in Star City, and let’s not forget that the flash forward scenes are unraveling a dangerous web of plot as well. […]
From the opening salvo that included a “The Shining”-esque vibe to the closing moments of EP. 1 of Syfy’s “Nightflyers,” this new sci-fi drama delivered a tense vibe that I have to admit got me hooked pretty quickly. Based on a novella from the pen of George R.R.Martin, “Nightflyers” got its season off to quite […]
