Through the Valley of Shadows

Five Thoughts on Star Trek Discovery‘s “Through the Valley of Shadows”

By Liz Farrell | Apr 7, 2019 | Television

We are quickly approaching the end of the second season for Discovery. Let’s dig into this third from final episode. 1. Emotion In last week’s episode, Michael Burnham found her mother, only to lose her once again. In this week’s episode, Burnham feels as if she’s failed her mother by losing her, but it’s her […]

Five Thoughts on The Umbrella Academy‘s “I Heard a Rumor”

By Kate Kosturski | Apr 3, 2019 | Television

They’ve got powers. They’ve got baggage. They’ve got eight days to save the world. Welcome to the Umbrella Academy. The Gerard Way and Gabriel Ba series comes to Netflix, introducing the world to the eccentric Richard Hargreeves and his superpowered progeny, who themselves have become less than superpowered adults. Vanya gets a handle on her new abilities, […]

Five Thoughts on Doom Patrol‘s “Therapy Patrol”

By Dexter Buschetelli | Apr 2, 2019 | Television

Doom Patrol has yet to break its streak of quality in these last five episodes. Despite some small nit-picks that could be made, such as using CGI for the blanket covering Rita that easily could have been done better with practical effects, “Therapy Patrol” may very well be the most powerful episode of the series […]

Five Thoughts on Legends of Tomorrow‘s “Lucha de Apuestas”

By Christopher Chiu-Tabet | Apr 2, 2019 | Television

Our second favorite comic book TV show of 2018 is back baby! And things got pretty serious on last night’s return, with Mona’s Kaupe boyfriend Konane on the loose, Nate’s dad framing her for his escape, and Sara and Ava having a serious disagreement over the situation. It wasn’t completely tense though: Konane had escaped […]

The Walking Dead - The Storm

Five Thoughts on The Walking Dead’s “The Storm”

By Kirsten Murray | Apr 2, 2019 | Television

In the last episode, Alpha warned Ezekiel that a hard winter lay ahead, leading our survivors to face one of their biggest threats yet in the season finale. Walkers and humans are deadly, but our survivors are more than capable of dealing with them at this stage. Nature, on the other hand, is far more […]

Five Thoughts on The Punisher‘s “Collision Course”

By Eric Goebelbecker | Apr 2, 2019 | Television

We’ve reached the penultimate episode of The Punisher’s second season. Here are five thoughts on “Collision Course” This recap contains spoilers. 1. Finally, John Pilgrim Last week wasn’t a tease. We left off with Pilgrim hot on Frank’s trail last episode, and pick up with him in the thick of the action. Moreover, he’s the Pilgrim from […]

Five Thoughts on Supergirl‘s “All About Eve”

By Elias Rosner | Apr 1, 2019 | Television

Welcome back all you Supergirl fans! You know, for an episode called “All About Eve,” there’s very little Eve Tessmacher in it and, instead, we focused on Jimmy, J’onn and Lena. Don’t get me wrong, this wasn’t the worst decision they could have made nor was a particularly bad one, it’s just a baffling decision considering the title. Maybe the next episode will be called All About Lex and feature exclusively footage of Superman on New Krypton. I’d watch that.

Five Thoughts on Star Trek Discovery‘s “Perpetual Infinity”

By Liz Farrell | Mar 31, 2019 | Television

1. Flashback! I don’t mind this oft used storytelling trope as long as it provides background information we care about. In this episode we flashback to Michael Burnham’s childhood; a childhood on a Vulcan colony, specifically, the Doctari Alpha Research Outpost. This opening scene gives us a glimpse into a family life 10-year-old Michael had […]

Five Thoughts on Riverdale‘s “The Raid”

By Elias Rosner | Mar 28, 2019 | Television

Welcome back all you Riverdale fans! My TV says the episode is called “The Master” but everywhere else is calling it “The Raid” so SOMEONE fucked up somewhere. . .which, honestly, is the theme of this episode so I gotta say, well done. As always, spoilers ahead.

Five Thoughts on The Umbrella Academy‘s “The Day That Was”

By Kate Kosturski | Mar 27, 2019 | Television

They’ve got powers. They’ve got baggage. They’ve got eight days to save the world. Welcome to the Umbrella Academy. The Gerard Way and Gabriel Ba series comes to Netflix, introducing the world to the eccentric Richard Hargreeves and his superpowered progeny, who themselves have become less than superpowered adults. Time for a do-over of last episode’s events, […]

Five Thoughts on Arrow‘s “Inheritance”

By Michael Mazzacane | Mar 26, 2019 | Television

My name isn’t Oliver or Emiko Queen, it’s Mike, and here are my thoughts on Arrow‘s “Inheritance.” It’s all about Emiko as Sea Shimooka takes center stage as viewers are shown what got her to this place. 1. The Reasons for “Bad” Choices I think about Jean Renoir, as both Octave and the director of […]

Five Thoughts on Doom Patrol‘s “Doom Patrol Patrol”

By Dexter Buschetelli | Mar 26, 2019 | Television

After saving the world in that two-parter we didn’t turn into a trilogy, Doom Patrol delivers another self-contained story–though still contributing to the broader season arc–in this week’s “Doom Patrol Patrol.” That title sounds like a grammatical nightmare but it winds up making sense. There’s a lot to unpack this week so strap in, and […]

Five Thoughts on The Walking Dead’s “The Calm Before”

By Kirsten Murray | Mar 26, 2019 | Television

In the penultimate episode of season nine, The Walking Dead delivered an episode filled with hope and heartbreak. Ever since the Whisperers made themselves known to the group, civilisation has been pitted against survival of the fittest mentality, with the groups clearly shaken by the skin-wearing enemies, but possibly undermining the lengths Alpha will go […]

Five Thoughts on The Punisher‘s “The Abyss”

By Eric Goebelbecker | Mar 26, 2019 | Television

It’s time for five thoughts on The Punisher’s “The Abyss,” the 11th episode of season two. This recap contains spoilers. 1. Karen Page returns. Deborah Ann Woll’s portrayal of Karen Page is one of the things I’ll miss most from the Netflix/Marvel shows. Her Karen has strength and compassion unlike any other character in the Netflix shows. You […]

Five Thoughts on Supergirl‘s “The House of L”

By Elias Rosner | Mar 25, 2019 | Television

Welcome back all you Supergirl fans! This week, just like Arrow, we’re taking a bit of a detour away from our main character to focus on Supergirl’s equivalent of the flash-forwards. . .kinda. Sorta. I wish it was more like Arrow and I’m honestly ashamed of myself for saying that. But hey, season 7’s been […]

Five Thoughts on Star Trek Discovery‘s “The Red Angel”

By Liz Farrell | Mar 24, 2019 | Television

1. Mourning It’s the moment we’ve all be waiting for, the capture and discovery of the nature of the Red Angel. But of course it does take us some time to get there and we have to properly mourn Lt. Commander Airiam before we can move on. She gave her life to save humanity, the […]

Five Thoughts on Gotham’s “I Am Bane”

By Christa Harader | Mar 22, 2019 | Television

I watched the first season and half of the second season of Gotham. And by watched, I mean it passed in front of my eyeballs like a drugged-out fever dream, except without the fun. After one episode saw Bruce telegraphing his emotional turmoil with shaking hands, I knew all subtlety and craft had been slaughtered […]

Marcus and the gang get their final showdown with Fuckface and his family, and Lin fights El Diablo for his daughter’s life in a bout of desperation. The gang’s all here, and the tension […]

Five Thoughts on Riverdale‘s “Big Fun”

By Elias Rosner | Mar 21, 2019 | Television

Welcome back all you Riverdale fans! The second musical episode is upon us and it’s got some big fun for us. Now, I haven’t ever seen Heathers despite my friend’s love for the movie, nor have I seen the musical version, so I have no idea how many of these songs are covers and how […]

Five Thoughts on The Umbrella Academy‘s “The Day That Wasn’t”

The Gerard Way and Gabriel Ba series comes to Netflix, introducing the world to the eccentric Richard Hargreeves and his superpowered progeny, who themselves have become less than superpowered adults.

Five Thoughts on Black Lightning‘s “The Book of the Apocalypse, Chapter Two: The Omega”

By Christopher Chiu-Tabet | Mar 19, 2019 | Television

Last week, Jennifer collapsed overloading her suit after attacking Whale as he fled the compound he stored the pod kids, only for her. Does she survive? Of course, but there were plenty of actual surprises in the season finale too. 1. The Gambi Card Gambi injures himself getting the convulsing Jennifer off the road: I […]
