Sorry that this recap is a bit late. Therese and I have been at Phoenix Comicon covering the crazy shenanigans of our nerdy brethren here in the Southwest. We managed to make it back in time for the episode to air locally but I spent most of that night writing […]
Bates Motel: Midnight Recap
So Norma and Sheriff Romero are totally my Bates Motel OTP right now. Just so everyone knows this. Also, this is the season finale. How crazy is that? Ten episodes in and Norman Bates hasn’t really done much to make himself seem like Norman Bates. He hasn’t shanked any pretty girls. […]
Defiance: Brothers in Arms Recap
“Brothers in Arms” opens on the busy Defiance marketplace, focusing on a Castithan man who is looking at the wares. My closed caption actually said [INTENSE MUSIC] when a human man spots the Castithan and gives chase. When he is cornered, the Castithan pulls his necklace off and throws it […]
Defiance: A Serpent’s Egg Recap
A whole lot of crazy was unleashed in this episode of Defiance, so put on your tinfoil hats and bear with me while we all sort out how we feel about it. It opens with Alak Tarr inexplicably deejaying from inside the St. Louis arch before announcing that the land […]
Game of Thrones: Second Sons Recap
So we’ve come to it. The wedding we’ve all been– I wait this isn’t Joffrey’s wedding? Oh it’s Sansa’s. Ok. Well it’s the most awkward wedding we’ve ever encountered. Also, be forewarned (or I guess be thankful), this is going to be a very short review. In King’s Landing, we’ve […]
Elementary: The Woman/Heroine Recap [Season Finale]
Elementary may have taken some time learning to crawl before it could walk, but there’s no doubt that the show was in full sprint as it approached its exciting first-season finale. What could be a more shocking way to begin the end than to reveal that Irene Adler, whom Sherlock […]
Defiance: A Well Respected Man Recap
This episode opened on two Castithans driving through the Hollows making what appear to be drug trades. They’re upset when a roller broken down in front of them blocks their path and – surprise! – it’s the lawkeepers! Nolan has them both arrested and searches through their trunk, confiscating drugs […]
Doctor Who: The Name of the Doctor Recap [SEASON FINALE]
“The Doctor has a secret he will take to the grave. It is discovered.” Warning: this article contains major SPOILERS for the series 7 finale. Everybody stay calm–explanations and speculations to follow. The seventh series of Doctor Who ended on a high note this week as writer Steven Moffat churned […]
Defiance: The Devil in the Dark Recap
(I’ve just jumped on board Nerdophiles, so this is me continuing to play catch up.) “The Devil in the Dark” is the name of Defiance’s third episode and, in my opinion, it doesn’t quite live up to the sinister undertones promised with a name like that. The episode opens on […]
The Vampire Diaries: Graduation Recap [Season Finale]
Sometimes I wonder why I watch The Vampire Diaries. Let’s be honest, the writing isn’t the best at times, the acting needs improvement, and the story lines are convoluted. But then episodes like “Graduation” happen and I remember all over again why I love this show. So let me just […]
