There are myriad “fish out of water” tropes running around in the land of TV and movies – some good, some not so good – but that interesting phenomenon has a fun little twist and smile-inducing vibe in the new SYFY Channel offering, “Resident Alien.” The show, set in a snowy little Colorado town with […]
After 10 episodes of Vagrant Queen, the concepts of family, trust and redemption have been fairly well implanted into the DNA of this show – as has fun. In part 2 of the season finale, “All Old Things Must Pass,” we are delightfully reminded that family, power and duty often make very uncomfortable bed-fellows. Treachery, […]
At long last we come to it, the two-part finish to the inaugural season of Vagrant Queen begins with Episode 109, “All Old Things Must Pass,” which gives us a lot of insight into how we’ve gotten to this point. Lazaro is going full Lazaro while Amae, Isaac and Elida are of one mind – […]
From time to time in a series you get an episode that confuses the viewer about what it’s purpose might be. And, on cursory inspection, that might be the case with Vagrant Queen’s episode 108, “No Clue.” It didn’t move the story along much, it didn’t really reveal anything vitally important to the ultimate goal […]
I’ve seen a lot of fight scenes that I enjoyed – some bloody, some funny and some that didn’t quite hit the mark. Fortunately, episode 106 of Vagrant Queen, “Requiem for the Republic,” delivered some pretty fine group violence that featured all of the traits that I tend to enjoy in a banquet room brawl. […]
I’m torn about what I witnessed in this episode of Vagrant Queen. I mean, there were not a lot of positive and glowing moments in this one as deceit piled one upon another and the idea of trust completely swirled down the toilet. And then there’s freakin’ Lazaro, popping in at just the right moment […]
It’s hard not to like the sound of Adriyan Rae’s voice. There’s a gentle friendliness to it that invites you in and makes you instantly comfortable. It’s also a voice that offers strength, passion, and a joy for life and work that’s infectious. If you’ve caught Rae in her title role as Elida in the […]
At long last, our heroes have landed (with a thud) on the planet that Elida’s mom is supposedly being held captive on. Ah, but getting there is, as they say, half the fun, right? Well, in episode 104 of Vagrant Queen, titled “In A Sticky Spot,” getting there was kind of a wild and woolly […]
The rescue plan of Elida’s mother hits full throttle as the target planet is Wix. It’s here that mom is being held (Or at least that’s the story), according to the loyalists looking to restore the monarchy. But a clandestine discussion overheard by Isaac may mean something else is afoot. Let the intrigue commence. Episode […]
For my money, it’s hard not to like the vibe that a new SYFY offering delivers in a fun, outer space, coming-of-age kind of way. Vagrant Queen debuted Friday with an episode titled “A Royal Ass-Kicking,” and while there was plenty of that, there was a lot more. I enjoyed it. The focus is on […]
