Before its broadcast, Rick and Morty co-creator Justin Roiland stated on Twitter that “Rest and Ricklaxation” was his favorite episode of Season 3 and one of the characters has become popular with fans. After a 20-minute adventure turns into a six-day re-enactment of Star Wars, Rick and Morty have a mental breakdown and decide they […]
BoJack Horseman‘s fourth season (which drops on September 8) might not be as cohesive as some of its predecessors, but the series maintains its mantle as the best show on Netflix. The season is more concerned with telling four separate (and only occasionally intersecting) stories, easily divvying up the screentime between Diane and Mr. Peanutbutter, […]
And with an ice dragon breathing ice-fire (at least that’s what it appeared to be?), The Wall comes crashing down, and the penultimate season of Game of Thrones ends. A solid ending, to be sure, even if I think the vast majority of the viewing audience had a suspicion that this was exactly how the […]
Marvel’s The Defenders, the long-awaited team-up between Netflix’s Marvel properties of Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist officially premiered this past weekend on the streaming service. All-in-all, it was a pretty hit or miss set of eight episodes, following our heroes as they met, teamed up, and eventually took down The Hand (the […]
“The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy” sees the return of Jerry Smith to Rick and Morty and gives fans a rare event, a Rick and Jerry adventure. Since his divorce with Beth, Jerry has been living a depressing single man’s life until Rick puts him out of bed naked and takes him up into space. Rick reveals […]
A disclaimer before I begin my review: I know nothing about The Tick beyond what I watched in the four episodes Amazon provided for my review. I didn’t watch the 2001 live-action series with Patrick Warburton (although I’ve heard some great things about it). I didn’t watch the 1994 cartoon. I’ve never read the comic. So, […]
Some major plot moments happened in “Beyond the Wall,” but not the ones we all expected. The predicted bloodbath at the hands of the White Walkers resulted in one notable, surprising death (and one that I suspect many saw coming – RIP Thoros of Myr), but it wasn’t nearly as spectacular as some of the […]
The prospect of Rick and Morty teaming up with a team of superheroes is enough to excite any fan of the show. Considering the show’s ability to parody big sci-fi and horror films, superheroes should provide great material for Rick and Morty to deconstruct. Rick and Morty have a literal call to adventure when a superhero team […]
There was no way “Eastwatch” was going to live up to the brilliance that was “The Spoils of War,” so I was glad to see that the writers didn’t even bother to try. Instead, we were given a great deal of discussion to bookend last week’s action packed ending, continuing to move the show’s key […]
Since Pickle Rick was revealed in promotional material, he quickly became a fan favorite, with fans waiting to see him in action. This week, their hopes were answered. After a couple of incidents at school, the Smith family have been ordered to go family therapy. To avoid going, Rick turns himself into a pickle, but […]
