True Detective – ‘Down Will Come’ Review

“You have one of the largest auras I’ve ever seen. Green and black. It’s been taking up this whole room.” Remember how last episode I said that the last episode would divide the audience? That it would split people down the middle and you’d either keep watching or just flat out stop? Well I think […]

True Detective – ‘Maybe Tomorrow’ Review

“Aw, son, they kill you. They shoot you to pieces.” So yeah, Ray is ok. Well not ok, but certainly alive. This is probably for the best because Ray is so awesome. Losing him so early on would have sucked, so I can forgive Pizzolatto tricking us like that. And it also meant we got […]

True Detective – ‘Night Finds You’ Review

‘The fundamental difference between the sexes is that one of them can kill the other with their bare hands.’ Did that happen? No way could they do that in episode 2, right? Well the answer to that question is probably not. But whatever happens that was an awesome scene, generating so many questions! What exactly was going on in […]

True Detective – ‘The Western Book of The Dead’ Review

‘I used to want to be an astronaut. But astronauts don’t even go to the moon anymore.’ Well True Detective is back and in a completely different form than the last season. Gone are the bayous and long empty roads of back water Louisiana, instead being replaced with the winding highways and David Lynch-esque visuals of Los Angeles. […]

Hannibal Season 1 Review

The Hannibal Lecter story had been told a few times now, all with varying results. Most of them are pretty good, such as the original source material by Thomas Harris and the film adaptations of his 1981 book Red Dragon (first by Michael Mann in Manhunter and later by Brett Ratner in Red Dragon). Occasionally though the Hannibal Lecter story has […]

Doctor Who ‘Death in Heaven’ Review

“Hey Missy you’re so fine, you’re so fine you blow my mind, hey Missy!” What a downer ending. I mean I appreciate Doctor Who taking some risks but that ending leaves The Doctor and Clara in a very sad place. This was the second part of a morbid two-part finale. And is it satisfying? Yeah…for the […]

Doctor Who ‘Dark Water’ Review

“Do you really think that I care for you so little that betraying me would make a difference?” Doctor Who finales have a lot to live up to. While some recent ones have been a little disappointing, they’re usually some of the best parts of the series; series’ 2’s and series’ 3’s are particular highlights. This […]

Doctor Who ‘In the Forest of the Night’ Review

“Even my incredibly long life is too short for Les Misérables.” Well! This one is sure to become one of the more divisive episodes of recent Who. A fascinating concept handled in an…interesting way to say the least, although it was far from successful. The episode begins with a little girl finding the Doctor in the […]

Doctor Who ‘Flatline’ Review

“I am The Doctor and you are the Boneless!” These is getting embarrassing now. Every time it comes to me writing up the review for the latest episode of Doctor Who it seems to be one of the best episodes of the season. Apart from perhaps Kill The Moon and The Robot of Sherwood every episode of this series […]

Doctor Who ‘Mummy on the Orient Express’ Review

“I’m The Doctor and I will be your victim this evening, are you my mummy?” The Orient Express? In SPACE? How is that not awesome? It’s a train in space! Ok that’s a little silly. And I guess we’ve seen this idea of transportation in space before (Voyage of the Damned?) but this was pretty […]
