On this week’s Agent Carter, we were given a look back at how Peggy became a member of the SSR, as well as a look into the mind of the villainous Whitney Frost in episode 2.4, “Smoke & Mirrors.” The episode started off with a flashback of Peggy as a young girl, fighting with her […]
After two uneven (if not outright bad, in the case of the season premiere) episodes, The X-Files returned to form with “Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster.” It was engaging, thanks to a great guest starring turn from Rhys Darby, fun, and it brought back the elements of our dynamic duo that have been sorely missing. […]
Based on a manga series by Marare Touno, Log Horizon is an entertaining fantasy series for the whole family set in the world of online gaming, comparing elements of Japanese and Western gaming and creating a rich world. In Japan, a World of Warcraft-like game, Elder Tales, has received an expansion and somehow all 30,000 […]
So I’m not huge on nautical movies. I’m not a huge fan of even being on a boat but with Black Sails, I love the action of the high seas, as it is full of historical elements, all of which are handled amazingly well. This episode was a great follow up to the season premiere, […]
As Arrow episodes go, “AWOL” wasn’t too bad. It was entertaining, it allowed both David Ramsey (Diggle) and Emily Bett Rickards (Felicity) a chance to shine, and, perhaps best of all, we didn’t have to deal with any Island flashbacks (despite the presence of the scary Island general at the end of the episode). But, […]
I feel like I’ve said all I need to say about The Flash at this point. Just when I thought we were past one of the most frustrating storylines of Season 2, this week’s episode provided a completely unnecessary epilogue to Patty being left out of the loop, with dialogue that ignored how close Barry […]
This week’s Agent Carter left some of the humor behind for a more dramatic third episode titled “Better Angels.” The episode gave us a closer look at just what kind of villains we’ll be dealing with this season. The episode opened with Peggy investigating Dr. Wilkes’ residence with Detective Sousa. They immediately found $50,000 in […]
“Founder’s Mutation” went a long way to righting The X-Files ship after the disappointing “My Struggle.” The dialogue was snappy, the plot (on the whole) made sense, and the episode was well-paced, save for two pretty glaring missteps. The Scully and Mulder presented in “Founder’s Mutation” were much more in line with the characters I […]
I can’t remember the first time I watched an episode of The X-Files, but I assume it was some time in the show’s third season. I do remember that I quickly became enamored with the series, and would watch each new episode with an excited anticipation holed up the the basement of my family’s house. […]
This third season premiere of Black Sails opens with three unknown men boarding a ship. They blow past an obvious underling pirate and barge their way into the captain’s quarters of an unknown ship. The Captain in question keeps his back turned to the men the entire time as they question him as to why he […]
