By Laura Merrill | Sep 14, 2021 | Television

Welcome, one and all, ladies, and gentleman, to our review of FX’s new science fiction drama, Y The Last Man.

Five Thoughts on Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me

By Reid Carter | Sep 13, 2021 | Television

Diane, it’s 1 pm. I’m at the end of my journey. Diane, this franchise gives me a strange feeling. It’s a series of clues that lead in circles and imagery that defies explanation.

Five Thoughts on Titans‘s “51%”

By Michael Mazzacane | Sep 10, 2021 | Television

Five Thoughts on Stargirl‘s “Summer School: Chapter Five”
