Five Thoughts on Gargoyles: The Goliath Chronicles‘ “The Journey”

By Christopher Chiu-Tabet | Aug 27, 2019 | Television

Welcome back to the Summer TV Binge of Disney’s Gargoyles. This week we begin looking at the revamped and truncated third season, Gargoyles: The Goliath Chronicles, which is largely considered non-canon because of the departure of creator Greg Weisman, save for the first episode, “The Journey” (aired September 7, 1996), which Weisman wrote. In this […]

Five Thoughts on X-Men: The Animated Series‘s “Mojovision”

By Dexter Buschetelli | Aug 26, 2019 | Television

Prev–wait…something is wrong here. I…I’m not sure how to handle the intro to this review. We’ve hit a jarring program break that has thrown off my narration and I suddenly don’t know how to bring you, the audience, into this review. Perhaps I should hand it over to Mojo. Bwahahaha you pussbags wouldn’t know a […]

Five Thoughts on Jessica Jones‘s “A.K.A. Hellcat”

By Dexter Buschetelli | Aug 26, 2019 | Television

It’s a weird week to be reviewing Jessica Jones. I mean, weird is a relative term for me at this point. I have a notable producer/writer brandishing a knife who has been occupying my favorite chair for several weeks. That’s a thing most people don’t normally have to deal with. I guess we all deal […]

Five Thoughts on Battlestar Galactica‘s “Resurrection Ship – Part 2”

By Liz Farrell | Aug 25, 2019 | Television

There was a point in season 2 where my excitement about Battlestar waned, but this two part episode really picked it back up again. 1. Apollo Our CAG and Commander’s son is frequently on the periphery of the action throughout this series. He may be involved in the plot, but we’re never following his story; […]

Five Thoughts on Adventures of Superman‘s “The Whistling Bird” and “Around the World with Superman”

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 24, 2019 | Television

Mercifully, this is my final installment of the 2019 Summer TV Binge. Adventures of Superman has been another slog this summer, but I must say, the final episode of the season is one of the episodes that feels like a true Superman story. Let’s dig in. 1. Return engagement “The Whistling Bird” is typical of […]

Ten Thoughts on Witchblade‘s “Transcendence”

By Kate Kosturski and Frank Skornia | Aug 23, 2019 | Television

Your favorite summer TV binging couple is back for more! Last year, my boyfriend Frank and I tackled the first season of SyFy/Amazon’s The Expanse together – – two different perspectives on the same show, one from one person who’s seen it, the other watching it for the first time. Who just happen to be […]

Five Thoughts on Babylon 5‘s “Acts of Sacrifice”

The folly of neutrality is explored, the reapings of hate are gathered, and this really creepy, snooty asshat comes on board so that we have at least one character to find outright vile.

Five Thoughts on Young Justice: Outsiders‘ “Terminus”

By Kevin Gregory | Aug 21, 2019 | Television

Today is the day, I tell you there is only one more week of Young Justice: Outsiders after this (though you’re getting three episodes next week). As someone in some high-budget, CGI-filled, superhero movie might say, “We’re in the endgame now.” And, in whatever fictional universe such a comment exists, they’d let him say it, […]

This week Rogue confronts her past and Beast finds love as we take a look at “A Rogue’s Tale” and “Beauty and the Beast.” I should hope I don’t need to give a warning […]

Five Thoughts on Jessica Jones‘s “A.K.A. Hero Pants”

Woof. That’s all I have to start with in regards to this week’s episode of Jessica Jones. Actually, that’s not true. “Help” is something else I have to say. I’m trapped in this apartment with a close friend of the showrunner who has not been terribly pleased with these reviews and possesses an intense and […]

Five Thoughts on Pennyworth‘s “Lady Penelope”

By Matthew Vincenty | Aug 19, 2019 | Television

Pennyworth returns with another episode exploring our favorite butler’s beginnings. The episode title “Lady Penelope” seems to reference 60s British Spy/Puppet television series Thunderbirds. Coincidentally Lady Penelope also has a butler with the initials AP and a checkered backstory. Seems an appropriate reference as this show is both a little 60s spy and also kind […]

In a meeting between the Admiral, Commander, and President, it’s […]

Five Thoughts on Adventures of Superman‘s “Lady in Black” and “Star of Fate”

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 17, 2019 | Television

Jimmy reads a mystery novel and gets scared; no one believes a curse is real, even after they’ve seen people paralyzed by it. So, you know, two very standard episodes of Adventures of Superman. 1. More Jimmy bullshit I’m not sure which is more prevalent on this show: Jimmy being treated like a piece of […]
