“Kizazi Moto: Generation Fire” Review

Kizazi Moto: Generation Fire: With Lelethu Zulu, Khanyiswa Joyi, Lungulethu Menzi, Nomsa Winnie Koro. This action-packed animated sci-fi anthology presents ten futuristic visions from Africa imagining brave new worlds of advanced technology, aliens, spirits, and monsters. I often wonder if I’m going deaf. This show didn’t help that thought at all. First one: not really afrofutuistic, they’re goat herders in a post-apocalyptic wasteland and defeat a cybertooth tiger. I could barely understand anything they said, but the music is good and the action is easy enough to follow along. The second one: I can barely understand what they’re saying, it’s...

“What If…?” Season 3 Review

What If…?: With Jeffrey Wright, Terri Douglas, Matthew Wood, Fred Tatasciore. Exploring pivotal moments from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and turning them on their head, leading the audience into uncharted territory. Every television series has to continuing moving in a direction or it’s going to get stagnant, and most comic book shows or movies have to constantly one up the season that came before it. The third (and final) season of “What if” takes that to the extreme with transuniversal, omnipowerful powerleveling of characters taking to their over the top logical end points in which everyone involved has more power...

“Dune: Prophecy” Review

Dune: Prophecy: Created by Diane Ademu-John, Alison Schapker. With Emily Watson, Olivia Williams, Chloe Lea, Jade Anouka. Two Harkonnen sisters combat forces that threaten the future of humankind and establish the fabled sect that will become known as the Bene Gesserit. A worthy entry into the modern adaptation universe, the story is solid and the actors are all amazing, and the tv budget only peeks through infrequently and isn’t all that noticeable. Buy On Amazon!

“Skeleton Crew” Review

Skeleton Crew: Created by Christopher Ford, Jon Watts. With Jude Law, Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Kyriana Kratter, Robert Timothy Smith. Four kids make a mysterious discovery on their home planet that leads them to get lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy. This is, my far, the best Star Wars content to come out since the last time I said this, which admittedly is pretty often with things like The Mandalorian and Andor in the mix. Skeleton Crew is an entirely perfect mix of Goonies, The Pirates of the Carribean, and Rogue One. There’s kids lost on an adventure of their...

“Star Trek: Prodigy” Review

Star Trek: Prodigy: Created by Dan Hageman, Kevin Hageman. With Rylee Alazraqui, Dee Bradley Baker, Brett Gray, Angus Imrie. A group of enslaved teenagers steal a derelict Starfleet vessel to escape and explore the galaxy. I have the second season on disk, but I decided to watch the entire series again on Netflix to try to help their stats a little bit. Hope to see the crew again in season 3! Buy On Amazon!

“Blue Eye Samurai” Review

Blue Eye Samurai: Created by Michael Green, Amber Noizumi. With Maya Erskine, George Takei, Masi Oka, Brenda Song. Driven by a dream of revenge against those who made her an outcast in Edo-period Japan, a young warrior cuts a bloody path toward her destiny. Fantastic series with all the necessary elements for me to recommend it to you. Do you like Samurai? Do you like tales of racial injustice being ever so slightly set right? Here you go! Buy On Amazon!

“Kite Man: Hell Yeah!” Review

Kite Man: Hell Yeah!: Created by Justin Halpern, Dean Lorey, Patrick Schumacker. With Matt Oberg, Stephanie Hsu, James Adomian, Jonathan Banks. The adventures of the minor villain Kite Man as he commits crimes to support the purchase of Noonan’s, Gotham’s seediest dive bar. I didn’t know this was being done and I ended up not really caring that I watched the entire first season. It was good enough that if you really really liked the Harley Quinn cartoon then you’ll likely like this, but I wasn’t such a huge fan that this show is necessary for me. I’m going to...

“Superman & Lois” Season 4 Review

Superman & Lois: Created by Greg Berlanti, Todd Helbing. With Tyler Hoechlin, Elizabeth Tulloch, Alex Garfin, Inde Navarrette. The world’s most famous superhero and comic books’ most famous journalist face the pressures and complexities that come with balancing work, justice, and parenthood in today’s society. This show obviously has to get out of the way of the upcoming Superman movie (which the first trailer looked about as good as this tv show was in the first season) and they did justice to the characters and their storylines and wrapped everything up as neatly as I could hope for. My one...

“Secret Level” Review

Secret Level: With Keanu Reeves, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Emily Swallow, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje. Original stories set within the worlds of iconic video games are featured in this animated anthology series. The episodes are short, but wow do each of them pack a punch. It’s a familiar format and one that i would gladly and happily like to see more of, short and to the point with very little fat left to waffle over. Buy On Amazon!

“Lioness” Season 1 Review

Lioness: Created by Taylor Sheridan. With Zoe Saldana, Laysla De Oliveira, Dave Annable, Jill Wagner. CIA operative Joe attempts to balance her personal and professional lives as the tip of the spear in the agency’s war on terror. Moves quickly right out the gate and sets a captivating scene of spy work, confidence games, bad asses with guns, political tension, and sexual confusion. It does all that and wraps up a tightly woven story in just 8 episodes! I can’t wait to see what season 2 will bring. Buy On Amazon!

“A Man on the Inside” Review

A Man on the Inside: With Ted Danson, Mary Elizabeth Ellis, Lilah Richcreek Estrada, Stephanie Beatriz. Charles, a retired man, gets a new lease on life when he answers an ad from a private investigator and becomes a mole in a secret investigation in a nursing home. Starts off feeling like a sappy low budget comedy, but quickly moves past that in the first 15 minutes. It quickly evolved into a show with deep emotion, dealing with some pretty heavy topics that the cast easily take on. There’s plenty of familiar faces here from the Director of the residence to...

“Sunny” Review

Sunny: Created by Katie Robbins. With Rashida Jones, Hidetoshi Nishijima, Joanna Sotomura, Judy Ongg. Follows Suzie, an American woman living in Japan, and Sunny, a domestic robot made by her husband’s company, as they uncover the dark truth of what really happened to Suzie’s husband and son, who disappeared in a mysterious plane crash. A great series exploring grief, loneliness, and love, all set in a normal feeling Japanese town, until you start scratching the surface and all sorts of fun and weird things are going on. Rashida Jones is pretty darn good here. I’m not sure how I feel...

“Agatha All Along” Review

Agatha All Along: Created by Jac Schaeffer. With Kathryn Hahn, Joe Locke, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn. A spell-bound Agatha Harkness regains freedom thanks to a teen’s help. Intrigued by his plea, she embarks on the Witches’ Road trials to reclaim her powers and discover the teen’s motivations. I finished this back when it originally aired and set aside the review for a few weeks to try to sort my feelings, and I think I’ve come down to the fact that I just didn’t like how they (didn’t) end it with an ending that was more of a non-ending vague start...

“Space: Above and Beyond” Review

Space: Above and Beyond: Created by Glen Morgan, James Wong. With Morgan Weisser, Kristen Cloke, Rodney Rowland, Joel de la Fuente. The Earth is embroiled in a desperate war against alien invaders, and this series focuses on one squadron of Marine pilots involved in it. I had a strong memory of really liking this show, but I knew that it was military science fiction from a time when scifi on TV was pretty hokey at times, so I was happy to see that the first episode opened so strongly with the drill sergeant from “Full Metal Jacket” making an appearance. ...

“Muscles & Mayhem: An Unauthorized Story of American Gladiators” Review

In the ’90s, TV’s stunt-filled “American Gladiators” thrilled fans. This docuseries explores the show’s success and how it almost ended before it began. I really enjoyed this look back at a series that only ran for a few years on a single channel, but somehow managed to become one of my personal core memories of tv from the 90s. There’s a lot of heart to this documentary and I loved seeing how well everyone treated each other, both in the past and in the current modern era. Buy On Amazon!

“LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy” Review

A nerf-herder discovers an artifact that twists the Star Wars universe, swapping the roles of heroes and villains. He embarks on an adventure to restore order and emerge as the savior who reassembles the fractured galaxy. A cute mini series that’s about 2 hours long total, I hope Disney does more of these types of short form stories with heart! Buy On Amazon!

“Solar Opposites” Season 5 Review

A family of aliens move to middle America, where they debate whether life is better there or on their home planet. Season 5 is here and there’s so many storylines and completely different sets of “main” characters that I wish they would double or triple the episode count. Maybe even split off a few of them into their own shows? Regardless of what they end up doing, the main characters are the least interesting part of this series, but if you’re looking for a storyline about a degenerate gambler and his hedgehog or about a guy trying to change a...

“Yakitori: Soldiers of Misfortune” Review

Yakitori: Soldiers of Misfortune: With Ron Bottitta, Frankie Kevich, Cherami Leigh, J. Michael Tatum. A young man’s rebel against authorities on a future version of Earth, after he has been recruited into an interplanetary military unit that suffers a 70% casualty rate. The action scenes, character designs, and base story concept are mindblowing and Iove everything about them. The voice Acting and writing however leave a lot to be desired with some pretty silly story elements being introduced in the middle of combat scenes that completely took me out of my appreciation of the glorious military science fiction. Buy On...

“His Dark Materials” Review

A young girl is destined to liberate her world from the grip of the Magisterium which represses people’s ties to magic and their animal spirits known as daemons. The second season of this sat on my “to watch” list for a few years and I’m happy to report that I’m fully disgusted in myself for waiting this long to watch it, it’s a fulfilling conclusion to the story and I loved everything about it. Buy On Amazon!

“Batman: Caped Crusader” Review

After a family tragedy, affluent philanthropist Bruce Wayne transforms into The Batman, where his crusade for justice spawns unforeseen ramifications. A pleasant mashup of The Batman and The Animated Series, it’s only 10 episodes long, but there’s enough here to enjoy. Hamish Linklater is the new voice of Batman and he works very well in context of the above mashup. He does a different enough voice from both Kevin Conroy and Robert Pattinson that’s both familiar and unique and again, works very well. It’s a shame that television has shrunk to such a degree that all we’re getting in our...

“Mech Cadets” Review

Mech Cadets: Created by Aaron Lam, Eileen Shim. With Brandon Soo Hoo, Aparna Brielle, Victoria Grace, Josh Sundquist. An underdog teen joins a group of young Cadets who’ve been chosen to bond with Robo Mechs from space and defend Earth against alien invaders. A delightful mix of Iron Giant, Starship Troopers, and Pacific Rim, I fully enjoyed the comic series and enjoyed this adaptation just as much. The scope is slightly scaled down, but it’s all the better for that, with a clearer focus on the singular character and the limited world view that he possesses. We get hints of...

“Star Trek: Prodigy” Season 2 Review

A group of enslaved teenagers steal a derelict Starfleet vessel to escape and explore the galaxy. This is about as good as Trek gets, with a cast of characters that are extremely diversified and non-human and a cast of actors that give it their all. I’m somewhat miffed that we’re once again doing time travel shenanigans, but this is time travel done right. Buy On Amazon!

“Star Trek: Discovery” Season 5 Review

Star Trek: Discovery: Created by Bryan Fuller, Alex Kurtzman. With Sonequa Martin-Green, Anthony Rapp, Doug Jones, Mary Wiseman. Ten years before Kirk, Spock, and the Enterprise, the USS Discovery discovers new worlds and lifeforms as one Starfleet officer learns to understand all things alien. I know I said I wasn’t going to watch this season as it came out, but the seasons are so short and the show is so ephemeral that I stayed with it until the bitter end. The show never changed it’s course and stayed true to concepts of emotional self discovery that so many Trek fans...

“Scavengers Reign” Review

Scavengers Reign: Created by Joe Bennett, Charles Huettner. With Sunita Mani, Wunmi Mosaku, Bob Stephenson, Alia Shawkat. The crew of a damaged deep space freighter strands on a beautiful but dangerous planet. The second of two shows that were recommended to me that I missed on their initial airing, this is the less grounded but just as interesting of the two, with the crew of a marooned ship finding their way through a fantastically alien environment with creatures that absolutely blew my mind in nearly every episode. Buy On Amazon!

“Pantheon” Review

Pantheon: Created by Craig Silverstein. With Katie Chang, Paul Dano, Aaron Eckhart, Rosemarie DeWitt. A young woman starts to get messages from an unknown number that claims to be her deceased father. Trying to uncover the truth, she stumbles upon a larger conspiracy involving the singularity. One of two shows that I missed completely when they first aired, this is the more grounded one with a look into the possibilities of uploading consciousness into near future technology and the ethical, political, and spiritual consequences of the entire situation. The story doesn’t make many missteps and moves quickly from easily understood...

0

“The Mandalorian” Review

The Mandalorian: Created by Jon Favreau. With Pedro Pascal, Chris Bartlett, Katee Sackhoff, Carl Weathers. The travels of a lone bounty hunter in the outer reaches of the galaxy, far from the authority of the New Republic. I bought this on Steelbook months and months ago and it’s sat on a pile until a couple weeks ago when I watched all of season one and two, then book of boba fett, then rested on the 7th day. The special features on the season one set spoil huge story elements for season two, and honestly the special features aren’t really all...

“Extraordinary Season 2” Review

Extraordinary: Created by Emma Moran. With Máiréad Tyers, Sofia Oxenham, Bilal Hasna, Luke Rollason. Jen is a self-aware young woman who lives in a world where everybody except her has a superpower. I had no clue this was up for a second season, so I was pleasantly surprised to see it show up and see that it’s more of the same great stuff we got in the first season. Buy On Amazon!

“Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities” Review

Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities: Created by Guillermo del Toro. With Lize Johnston, Kevin Keppy, Tim Blake Nelson, F. Murray Abraham. Bizarre nightmares unfold in eight tales of terror in a visually stunning, spine-tingling horror collection curated by Guillermo del Toro. Considered by many as one of the best curators of horror and suspense, Guillermo del Toro didn’t write all these stories, I think he only penned one of them, but they all feel like they’re right up his alley. Every story is fantastic in it’s own way and most of them are so good that I would recommend...

0

“Knuckles” Review

Knuckles: With Adam Pally, Idris Elba, Stockard Channing, Edi Patterson. Knuckles the Echidna teaches deputy Wade Whipple the techniques of the Echidna warrior. The first two episodes of this “streaming event” are pretty ok but after that point the series drifts off into some pretty mediocre content with storylines involving a vaguely racist Jewish dinner, a missing father dealt with in the most cringeworthy possible way, and a bowling competition as announced by “The Ocho”, which was the same concept from the movie “Dodgeball”. There’s not much to like after the first 2 episodes are done and much more could...

“Star Wars: The Bad Batch” Review

Star Wars: The Bad Batch: Created by Jennifer Corbett, Dave Filoni. With Dee Bradley Baker, Michelle Ang, Noshir Dalal, Ben Diskin. The “Bad Batch” of elite and experimental clones make their way through an ever-changing galaxy. The final episode aired today and while it was a bittersweet ending, this series has had one hell of a journey from it’s humble beginnings of just following some genetic oddities from Batch 99 to seeing how they’ve effected the wider galaxy and the burgeoning rebellion against the Empire. There’s a neat ‘flash forward’ at the end that lays the groundwork for some future...

0

“Archer” Review

Archer: Created by Adam Reed. With H. Jon Benjamin, Judy Greer, Amber Nash, Chris Parnell. Covert black ops and espionage take a back seat to zany personalities and relationships between secret agents and drones. I gave up on this show when they started straying from the spy agency concept and it was all dream state illusions that had no impact or made any sense within the world that they had previously created and I completely missed it when they brought it all back to the basic formula that worked so well. I’ve finally caught up with the series and I’m...

“Warrior Nun” Season 2 Review

Warrior Nun: Created by Simon Barry. With Alba Baptista, Kristina Tonteri-Young, Lorena Andrea, Tristán Ulloa. After waking up in a morgue, an orphaned teen discovers she now possesses superpowers as the chosen Halo Bearer for a secret sect of demon-hunting nuns. Sadly I believe this is the end for the warrior nuns, as I do not believe Netflix is going to continue it past this season. The story (mostly) wraps up all the dangling threads from the first season and all the characters given their moment to shine. I’m a fan of the world they’ve built here and I adore...

“Fallout” Review

Fallout: Created by Geneva Robertson-Dworet, Graham Wagner. With Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, Walton Goggins, Moises Arias. In a future, post-apocalyptic Los Angeles brought about by nuclear decimation, citizens must live in underground bunkers to protect themselves from radiation, mutants and bandits. About as perfect of a video game adaptation that could be possibly made, I think it helps that the universe lends itself to unique settings and characters for each vault that opens on it’s own schedule, so while they were able to accurately capture the humor and visual style of the games, they were also free to create their...

“11 Minutes” Review

11 Minutes: With Jonathan Smith, Dee Jay Silver, Kelly Pollard, Jason Aldean. Through emotional first-hand accounts and never-before-seen archival footage, this documentary immerses viewers inside the largest mass shooting in our country’s history, at what was supposed to be a festival celebrating country music. This is both one of the most difficult documentaries to watch, but also one of the most maddening, with all the real terror of the night hidden and censored, only the hallways scenes at the hospital were really showing the full depths of the insanity, the rest of it feels like a sanitized and nearly bloodless...

“3 Body Problem” Review

3 Body Problem: Created by David Benioff, D.B. Weiss, Alexander Woo. With Jovan Adepo, Liam Cunningham, Eiza González, Jess Hong. A fateful decision made in 1960s China reverberates in the present, where a group of scientists partner with a detective to confront an existential planetary threat. A fun hard science fiction series that doesn’t stay very jovial for very long and gets right into the hard truths portion fast enough to turn off those that don’t enjoy such things but kept my attention the entire time. I’ve heard so much about the book that I was expecting something much more...

“Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” Review

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters: With Anna Sawai, Kiersey Clemons, Ren Watabe, Joe Tippett. Set after the battle between Godzilla and the Titans, revealing that monsters are real, follows one family’s journey to uncover its buried secrets and a legacy linking them to Monarch. I somehow neglected to mention that I watched “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters”, so here it is, my review: This is a perfectly fine series that wasn’t necessary and spent way too much time on the people instead of the monsters or their legacies. In fact, the “legacy of monsters” here might be a reference to some of...

“Halo” Review

Halo: Created by Steven Kane, Kyle Killen. With Pablo Schreiber, Shabana Azmi, Natasha Culzac, Olive Gray. With the galaxy on the brink of destruction, Master Chief John-117 leads his team of Spartans against the alien threat known as the Covenant. The general consensus is that season one of the show was pretty rough and nearly every art of it was either straight up bad or could have been done better. Season two sanded off some of those rough edges and nipped some of the more strange or silly plot elements that weren’t working, but it still has worlds to go...

“Shadow and Bone Season 2” Review

Shadow and Bone: Created by Eric Heisserer. With Jessie Mei Li, Archie Renaux, Freddy Carter, Amita Suman. Dark forces conspire against orphan mapmaker Alina Starkov when she unleashes an extraordinary power that could change the fate of her war-torn world. As with the first season, this series works best when it’s not worried about the B-story and whatever shenanigans they’re up to in a completely different part of the world from the A-story, usually with less interesting characters and much less interesting story elements. Everyone is very pretty with amazing costumes and utterly fantastic special effects that made me drop...

“Avatar: The Last Airbender” Review

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Created by Albert Kim. With Gordon Cormier, Kiawentiio, Ian Ousley, Dallas Liu. A young boy known as the Avatar must master the four elemental powers to save the world, and fight against an enemy bent on stopping him. Jamming 20 episodes worth of animated content into 8 episodes of live action television is a daunting task, but one that was successfully achieved with this latest adaptation of the The Last Airbender. The costumes are perfect, the story is tight, and the air bisons fly in a fantastic and believable fashion. The casting for this is so...

“Ted” Review

Ted: Created by Seth MacFarlane. With Seth MacFarlane, Max Burkholder, Alanna Ubach, Scott Grimes. It’s 1993, and Ted the bear’s moment of fame has passed. He’s living back home with his best friend, John Bennett, and his family. While Ted may be a lousy influence on John, he’s a loyal pal who will go out on a limb for friendship. A prequel to the two movies, but due to the magic of streaming, is still just as raunchy and debased as the films were. Since the second movie was released in 2015 we’ve had three seasons of The Orville by...

“Superman & Lois Season 3” Review

Superman & Lois: Created by Todd Helbing, Greg Berlanti. With Tyler Hoechlin, Elizabeth Tulloch, Alex Garfin, Erik Valdez. The world’s most famous superhero and comic books’ most famous journalist face the pressures and complexities that come with balancing work, justice, and parenthood in today’s society. In an ongoing effort to catch up on my television watchin’ from my time in school, Season 3 of “Superman & Lois” was a frustrating slog to get through, There’s no fault to be had in any of the performances, Tyler Hoechlin is still a great Superman, Elizabeth Tullock is about a perfect Lois Lane...

“Reacher Season 2” Review

Reacher: Created by Nick Santora. With Alan Ritchson, Maria Sten, Malcolm Goodwin, Willa Fitzgerald. Itinerant former military policeman Jack Reacher solves crimes and metes out his own brand of street justice. Another great season, speaking to the burgeoning American minimalism movement, the increased need for manufactured or found families, and the lengths we should go to believe in others. Also, violence. Lots and lots of violence. Buy On Amazon!

“Star Trek Continues” Review

Star Trek Continues: With Vic Mignogna, Todd Haberkorn, Christopher Doohan, Grant Imahara. The further adventures of the crew of the USS Enterprise. It only took me a couple years, but I finally made it through all 11 episodes of this, the best fan fiction in Star Trek that I’ve ever seen. There’s some surprisingly good science fiction here with plots that range from silly adventures to poignant stories of the human condition.. They’re all for free on youtube, so if you’re a Trek fan and want more TOS in your life, this is the best place to hit that sweet...

“Echo” Review

Echo: With Alaqua Cox, Chaske Spencer, Tantoo Cardinal, Graham Greene. Maya Lopez must face her past, reconnect with her Native American roots and embrace the meaning of family and community if she ever hopes to move forward. The latest and greatest from the MCU, this time it’s the sorta villain from the “Hawkeye” show that gets to launch the new “Marvel Spotlight” sub brand from MCU content and only time will tell what that branding actually means. The first series is a good one with just 5 episodes with a total run time of about 4 hours, which is fantastic...

“War of the Worlds” Review

War of the Worlds: Created by Howard Overman. With Léa Drucker, Gabriel Byrne, Bayo Gbadamosi, Ty Tennant. Set in contemporary France, this Anglo-French reimagining of H. G. Wells’ classic in the style of Walking Dead follows pockets of survivors forced to team up after an apocalyptic extra-terrestrial strike. While it had a satisfying ending, I really struggled to get through this final season, as I found the science and the story to be labored past the point of believability. Black holes in the Earth’s atmosphere, alternate realities, space stations, and robot dogs were all just set pieces in a story...

“Gotham Knights” Review

Gotham Knights: Created by Natalie Abrams, Chad Fiveash, James Patrick Stoteraux. With Oscar Morgan, Olivia Rose Keegan, Navia Ziraili Robinson, Fallon Smythe. Bruce Wayne is murdered and his adopted son forges an alliance with the children of Batman’s enemies. As the city becomes more dangerous, these mismatched fugitives will become its next generation of saviors, known as the Gotham Knights. Only lasted a single season on the tail end of the CW comic book infatuation in early 2023, “Gotham Knights” does what so many other Batman related properties have done, which is to immediately remove the caped crusader from the...

“What If…? Season 2” Review

What If…?: With Jeffrey Wright, Terri Douglas, Matthew Wood, Robin Atkin Downes. Exploring pivotal moments from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and turning them on their head, leading the audience into uncharted territory. This is some of the best content from Marvel in the last few years, from the great music, to the fantastic action, to stories and new characters that are both captivating and have a strong future in the franchise. It’s a shame that the the best stuff is animated, but at least we’re getting great stuff still. Buy On Amazon!

“Upload Season 3” Review

Upload: Created by Greg Daniels. With Robbie Amell, Andy Allo, Allegra Edwards, Zainab Johnson. A man is able to choose his own afterlife after his untimely death by having his consciousness uploaded into a virtual world. As he gets used to his new life and befriends his angel (real world handler), questions about his death arise. Continues it’s pattern of being a sophisticated show that’s not taking it’s core concept serious enough for my tastes, but has just enough wit and humor to keep me coming back for more. Buy On Amazon!

“Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan” Season 4 Review

Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan: Created by Carlton Cuse, Graham Roland. With John Krasinski, Wendell Pierce, Michael Kelly, Abbie Cornish. Up-and-coming CIA analyst, Jack Ryan, is thrust into dangerous field assignments. A delightfully small stakes but still entertaining season with great action, great acting, and a definite eating. It’s a shame they still haven’t figured out how to make their fake weapon shots look like more realistic, but that’s the current movie climate we find ourselves in. A solid series that’s easily bingable. Buy On Amazon!

“The Wheel of Time Season Two” Review

The Wheel of Time: Created by Rafe Judkins. With Rosamund Pike, Daniel Henney, Zoë Robins, Madeleine Madden. Set in a high fantasy world where magic exists, but only some can access it, a woman named Moiraine crosses paths with five young men and women. This sparks a dangerous, world-spanning journey. Based on the book series by Robert Jordan. The first season was good enough to get me to watch the second and the second is just good enough to get me to watch the third, which feels like a backhanded compliment, but I honestly found the show has way too...
