Arrow - "Vigilante"

Five Thoughts on Arrow‘s “Vigilante”

By Brian Salvatore | Nov 17, 2016 | Television

Arrow is asking interesting questions this season and, even if the show isn’t really answering them, it is certainly an improvement over the past few seasons. 1.

The Flash - "Shade"

Five Thoughts on The Flash‘s “Shade”

By Brian Salvatore | Nov 16, 2016 | Television

This episode was frustrating in a number of ways, and seems to be blatantly explaining how the season is going to end, but not giving us any movement towards that. 1. Shade, thrown The use of “Shade,” or ‘The Shade’ as he is more commonly known, was so incredibly frustrating in this episode, I don’t […]

Legends of Tomorrow - Compromised

Five Thoughts on Legends of Tomorrow‘s “Compromised”

By Brian Salvatore | Nov 11, 2016 | Television

Less than five minutes into Legends of Tomorrow, we get a fascism mention. Why can’t this be an escape for me? 1. The 80’s as an endless source of humor From Damien “Miami Vice” Darhk to the references to Top Gun, Back to the Future, and more, this episode reinforces the recent idea that 80’s […]

Arrow -- "So It Begins"

Five Thoughts on Arrow‘s “So It Begins”

By Brian Salvatore | Nov 10, 2016 | Television

After a rough couple of days, let’s hope Arrow can be a balm for our weary souls. Nothing like the story of a billionaire who inherited his wealth and decides to take the fate of his surroundings into his own hands…ah, fuck. 1. A new color scheme needed OK, this is an annoying feature of […]

Gotham Blood Rush

Five Thoughts on Gotham‘s “Blood Rush”

By James Johnston | Nov 8, 2016 | Television

Welcome back to our recap of Fox’s hit TV series, Gotham. As the one person who watches this show, it’s been decided that I should be the one to chronicle its existence so history could never forget. Kind of like The Giver, I think. As always, I refuse to look up anything that happened in […]

Legends of Tomorrow "Abominations

Five Thoughts on Legends of Tomorrow‘s “Abominations”

By Brian Salvatore | Nov 4, 2016 | Television

Zombies come to Legends. Yarp. 1. Yup, Zombies I had hoped that this would be a backdoor pilot for a G.I. Zombie series or, at least, an introduction that character but, nope!

The Flash - "Monster"

Five Thoughts on The Flash‘s “Monster”

By Brian Salvatore | Nov 2, 2016 | Television

I was really hoping this episode was going to be a dramatic reenactment of the Kanye West song. It isn’t, but read on anyway. 1. Is the show making a punk rock joke? Harrison Wells of Earth-19 calls himself H.R. and wears a hat. Is this a reference to the lead singer of the recently […]

Legends of Tomorrow - "Shogun"

Five Thoughts on Legends of Tomorrow‘s “Shogun.”

By Brian Salvatore | Oct 28, 2016 | Television

The Legends travel to feudal Japan to play samurai and fall in love. Shockingly, one of those plot points works a lot better than the other. 1.

By Brian Salvatore | Oct 27, 2016 | Television
