Ryan Gossling stars in Project Hail Mary, a space adventure about a man who is outward brilliance and inward cowardice are at odds with each other.

While Gary is trying to throw Xavier off the scent of his wife, we take a peak into the past and look at the life of a psychopath a.k.a., Jane. She started life as a prophecy that hast yet to be fulfilled, a daughter to a wayward mother, and a person who lives her life longing for the love of a maternal figure. Xavier and Teri’s baby girl is getting impatient, while Robinson tries to protect a ver...

In another world building episode of the people outside of Paradise, we find Gary trying to live the fantasy he never could when it wasn’t the apocalypse. Teri has to exercise healthy boundaries, Xavier don’t trust Gary, Ennis is a jerk (maybe), Link’s disciples show up, and then there’s a kid named Bean. Paradise season 2 is shaping up to be the first season, but focusing on the people outside of...

Paradise on Hulu Season 2 dropped a three episode premiere and soooooooo much happened. We get a look at our new antagonist, our hero Collins gets in a bit of a predicament on his way to Atlanta, Sinatra wakes up not the president anymore and Paradise looks a lot like present time America irl. In the comments, give us your best theory about anything that happens in any of the three episodes. Pleas...

Egg decides whether he has Targaryen blood running hot in his veins, Raymun Fossaway chooses a new relationship, Lyonel Baratheon is happy with a decision that was made, and Maekar is sad about all four of the living decisions he’s fathered. On a scale of 1-10, how successful has thi...

Dunk is propositioned to do some point shaving, while Egg is trying to manage his only weakness of being small.

Wonder Man on Disney Plus, a “Marvel Spotlight,” is a character driven show that centers around one struggling actor Simon Williams, and our favorite character actor (the Mandarin himself) Trevor Slattery. Simon has a secret and so does Trevor. They both are vying for roles in the same movies and places in each others hearts. This is a tremendously acted, solidly written show that was seemingly du...

Would you believe me if I told you there would be a Game of Thrones spinoff that was equal parts comedy, fish out of water, and a lone wolf and cub story combined? Of course you would think I was a liar, but I’m not. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight is a surprisingly funny, positive, and non-cynical look into the world that we’ve grown accustomed to being lewd, lascivious, and full...

Stranger Things has finished (for now) and the gang has thoughts about Vecna and the Mindflayer, 11 pulling a Pa Kent from Man of Steel, noticeable absences of certain characters, the time jump, the reveal of the Einstein-Rosen Bridge, and much more!

Rian Johnson is back on Netflix with Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery and this starts off as a bit of a mystery in comparison to the prior iterations of this franchise. This star-studded cast includes Jeffrey Wright, Glenn Close, Josh Brolin, Thomas Haden Church, and of course Daniel Craig, to name a few. This mystery centers around a Catholic Church in a small town, where a young, but troub...

In the season one finale, Manousos and Carol do the most expected thing in their first in-person meeting: hate each other. The hive is dong an effective job keeping Carol busy, as they find new ways to propagate the RNA into the remaining 12. Manousos proves to be an agent of chaos, with a purpose and is not understanding why Carol is choosing the girl over the world. If you started watching The U...

The Hive is trying to butter up Carol with some booty, while Carol is trying to individuate Zosia to the point of having her believe in her own personhood. Meanwhile, Manousos still doesn’t want any help, as his trek to meet Carol in person draws closer. This was the penultimate episode of this highly intriguing and entertaining Apple TV+ series. Keeping the end of the episode in mind, who current...

The gap between Carol and Manousos closes in distance, but widens in ideology as these two want the same thing and are going about it in drastically different ways. Carol is starting to feel the effects of prolonged isolation, while Manousos is rejecting the notion that the hive provides and still managing to utilize his time wisely. Please!

What happens in Vegas, well, the hive knows. Carol is reeling after we see what she discovers in cold storage, while Diabaté is living the life he always wanted. The main takeaway from this episode is clearly you get so much more out of life (people, too) when you kind. Carol still is struggling with this, as cynicism and skepticism are melded with the privilege she once had. Manousos down in Para...

The Netflix franchise that has been successful beyond shareholders wildest dreams is back in its finale season. Of course, they can’t drop this all at once, so we get four episodes, aka, chapter one. The crew is split up doing covert missions, visiting the upside down, and some other random place that seems to be to mindful. My question to you is who is currently on deathwatch after watching the f...

Carol proves that she has other human emotions than rage, as the Hive makes some changes about its “arrangement” with Carol. Nature is running its course and Carol fires up the proverbial Mystery Machine and plays Scooby-Doo trying to uncover something that’s hiding in plain sight. Please!
