Five Thoughts on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s “Fun and Games”

By Robbie Pleasant | Jan 8, 2018 | Television

Happy new year, readers! We’ve got more S.H.I.E.L.D. to look at, and more spacefaring, time-hopping things to explore. So without further ado, let’s take a look at the latest episode. 1. Fitz the Fearsome Let’s be real, Fitz was the best part of this episode. He wakes up in the future and is told that […]

The Clone Wars Cad Bane

Five Thoughts on Star Wars: The Clone Wars‘ “Holocron Heist,” “Cargo of Doom,” and “Children of the Force”

By Brian Salvatore | Jan 3, 2018 | Television

I’m baaaaaack! After a longer break than anticipated, I’m going to start digging into season two of The Clone Wars. This season appears, at least from what I’ve been told, to be more arc-based, so I’m going to be clustering my reviews together. This has two purposes: one, I hope to finish the series before […]

Five Thoughts On Runaways‘s “Doomsday”

By Jess Camacho | Jan 3, 2018 | Television

Doomsday is in fact upon our beloved not quite Runaways. Things shift into the highest gear they’ve ever been in at this point. We are running out of episodes after all. It’s a great episode with lots of huge moments, setting up a lot of drama to take us to the end of season one. […]

By Kevin Gregory | Jan 2, 2018 | Television

Lucifer aired the last of its standalone, carried over episodes from season two yesterday in a special New Year’s episode, giving us a little more insight into how Lucifer decided to stay in LA.

Five Thoughts On Happy!‘s “Year Of The Horse”

By Jess Camacho | Dec 31, 2017 | Television

Things somehow go from bad to worse in Happy! but honestly, we wouldn’t be here if it didn’t. Nick goes to Chinatown and gets into all kinds of trouble and we get to know the Scaramucci family even more. This week is a wild episode so let’s jump into this but be warned, there are spoilers for this episode […]

Five Thoughts On Runaways‘s “Tsunami”

By Jess Camacho | Dec 27, 2017 | Television

Let’s jump into this but be warned, there are spoilers throughout. 1. Tsunami What a perfect title. Absolutely perfect and on the nose for an episode that is literally just one thing after another crashing down upon these characters. It’s also, as every single comic book website has pointed out, a reference to a former Marvel imprint. […]

Five Thoughts on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s “Rewind”

By Robbie Pleasant | Dec 26, 2017 | Television

Five Thoughts On Happy!‘s “When Christmas Was Christmas”

By Jess Camacho | Dec 21, 2017 | Television

Merry Christmas, Happy! style. “Happy!” is a dark comic but man, I did not expect the television adaptation to get darker. This is a much slower episode than the first two have been but that kind of thing isn’t necessarily a bad thing. “When Christmas Was Christmas” lets us catch our breath a little bit but is […]

Five Thoughts On Runaways‘s “Refraction”

By Jess Camacho | Dec 20, 2017 | Television

Runaways is wild. I mean, really wild. This show has very quickly become one of my absolute favorites. It’s unpredictable, exciting and full of the kind of melodrama that I eat up. This week’s episode dives into the fallout of last week’s disaster of a fundraiser and finds a sense of humor that doesn’t feel […]

Agents of SHIELD A Life Earned

Five Thoughts on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s “A Life Earned”

By Robbie Pleasant | Dec 18, 2017 | Television

First rule of Inhuman Fight Club: talk about Inhuman Fight Club, because that brings in buyers, but don’t let the Inhumans know. Second rule of Inhuman Fight Club: try not to have any Inhuman mutations that would put extra stress on the makeup or CGI departments, because budgets are a thing. With that joke out […]

Five Thoughts On Happy!‘s “What Smiles Are For”

By Jess Camacho | Dec 14, 2017 | Television

The year is 2017 and I am sitting here typing a recap/review of a Grant Morrison adaptation. We’ve got dark Archie, foul mouthed Deadpool, and the Avengers avenging things on the big screen so it only makes sense that the big eye of buying up comic book options has found its way to Grant Morrison. […]

Five Thoughts on Riverdale‘s “Silent Night, Deadly Night”

By Ken Godberson III | Dec 14, 2017 | Television

Okay. Mid-Season Finale. Let’s do this. Spoilers ahead. 1. Betty Cooper is the Best Really, Juggy. You don’t deserve her. After Jughead really screwing up last week by calling her off for trying to get involved with the Serpents. So, after their relationship was put on a more turbulent level, it was really good to […]

Five Thoughts On Runaways‘s “Metamorphosis”

By Jess Camacho | Dec 13, 2017 | Television

Six episodes into Runaways and they still haven’t run away. I’m keeping count. However, by completely going its own way, this might be the best show Marvel has given us to date. This episode takes place in one location and the drama escalates to a pretty dangerous level for everyone involved. Secrets are out and the fallout […]

Lucifer-The-Sin-Bin

Five Thoughts on Lucifer‘s “The Sin Bin”

By Kevin Gregory | Dec 12, 2017 | Television

There’s a lot going on in this week’s midsesaon finale. Lot of different tones and genres, music and mythology as we close the case of The Sinnerman, but open up a whole new can of worms. Also, of course, spoiler alert. Let’s dive in! 1. Interrogation The episode opens with Lucifer being excited tomorrow is […]

The Gifted Exploited

Five Thoughts on The Gifted: “eXploited

By Kate Kosturski | Dec 12, 2017 | Television

It’s looking like a blue Christmas for the Struckers and the Underground. The junior Struckers and several key members of the Underground team are behind bars with Sentinel Services. Cory Booker’s Evil Twin and his partisans have the upper hand. Let’s hang our X-Stockings by the chimney with care, pour some X-Nog, and have some […]

Five Thoughts on The Walking Dead‘s “How It’s Gotta Be”

By Gregory Ellner | Dec 11, 2017 | Television

Above even the expected failures, the midseason finale is thoroughly underwhelming and poorly handled, with many issues existing even beyond the five here. Then again, maybe that’s just “How It’s Gotta Be.” Be warned, major spoilers follow. 1. Problem of an Overstuffed Nighttime Episode At times, we may have some dark episodes, physically speaking: scenes […]

Five Thoughts on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s “A Life Spent”

By Robbie Pleasant | Dec 11, 2017 | Television

The spacefaring adventures of S.H.I.E.L.D. continues. Daisy may or may not have destroyed or will destroy the Earth in the relative past but her future, Simmons is wearing gold makeup and serving the Kree, and the others are stuck in the junkyard. All in all, a regular mission. Let’s see how it’s going. 1. Space […]

Five Thoughts on Gotham‘s “Queen Takes Knight”

By Kate Kosturski | Dec 8, 2017 | Television

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Twice if it’s Sofia Falcone. Jim and Cobblepot do not know what they’re in for once they get on the wrong side of Sofia, but there’s another man on his way to town who is probably the only person to put the junior gangster in her place. […]

Five Thoughts on Arrow‘s “Irreconcilable Differences”

By Brian Salvatore | Dec 8, 2017 | Television

We’ve come to the mid-season finale of Arrow and, as the show has done seemingly countless times since its debut, it makes it look like Oliver is backed into a corner he can’t possibly fight his way out of. 1. DJ Dipshit reference! When I started reviewing Arrow, it was a bit of a weird […]

Five Thoughts on Riverdale‘s “House of the Devil”

By Ken Godberson III | Dec 7, 2017 | Television

It’s the lead-in to Riverdale‘s mid-season finale as Veronica and Archie take point in the Black Hood mystery. How does it fare? Let’s look. 1. Veronica & Archie: Detectives You know, with all the death and crime and mayhem, you almost forget for a few moments that this show is also known as “Sexy Archie”. […]
