GAME OF THRONES!!! Yes, I am that excited about this show, always. So, with so many characters, we’ve had to result to switching off different sets of characters to feature in each episode, which is getting very similar to the novel, which is written from different point-of-view characters. However, this […]
Hannibal: Apéritif Recap
When I walked into the Hannibal screening at Wonder Con last weekend I knew that I was going to be one of the first people to see the series premier. Hannibal had been a major sponsor of Wonder Con this year – the main one, really – so there was a […]
Spartacus: The Dead and the Dying Recap
Once upon a time, when I was in high school, and Spartacus first started, my favorite history teacher told me that the show was basically soft core porn and not even history. Well, he may have been right, but this show has evolved into such an emotional roller coaster that […]
Elementary: Snow Angels Recap

The Following: Guilt Recap
The Following starts off mocking us with Paul and his finely god-carved body. Obviously we know that he’s dead, but his spirit continues to haunt Jacob. So far, we don’t know how it has affected Jacob. Your first kill stays with you, even more so when it’s a loved one. […]
Bates Motel: “Nice Town You Picked, Norma” Recap
Max Thieriot shows up in the beginning of this week’s new episode as Norman Bates’s older half-brother, Dylan. It’s nice to see him in something. I don’t think I’ve seen him in a while. Except that horror movie with Jennifer Lawrence. He’s basically playing the usual dead beat, unemployed prodigal […]
Enter The Forest of Hands and Teeth
With zombies becoming increasingly more popular it’s no surprise that a slew of young adult and new adult titles featuring the formerly human creatures have been hitting the market over the past few years. To be honest, I couldn’t be happier. I love zombies. Always have. Always will. No matter […]
Cinderella is a Cyborg
At least, she is in the fairytale inspired novel Cinder by Marissa Meyer. When I picked up this book I figured it was going to be your usual fairy tale adaptation. They are pretty common these days. Once Upon A Time on ABC does it with a campy, family friendly flare that’s really gotten […]
Bates Motel: First You Dream, Then You Die Recap
The second of three serial killer-related programs beginning this year and the first of two based on previously established stories, Bates Motel is a modern day prequel to the film Psycho. This works because Psycho is a story that ages well. It doesn’t really matter what era Norman Bates grew […]
