in Cancelled Too SoonNetflix Robbed GLOW of the Ending Its Characters Deserved
Netflix is a massive streaming giant that holds a lot of shows that I watch on a regular basis, but over the past few years, they have proven time and time again that they do not care about their own content, or perhaps even their customers.

A couple of weeks ago I found myself scrolling through my partner’s collection of previously downloaded Xbox Live Gold games, and stumbled across a visual novel called Coffee Talk. I’ll admit, at first, I didn’t think much of it seeing the screenshots of elves and werewolves, and figured it would be a story playing out […] More

It’s so easy to do this with sitcoms because they’re fun and lighthearted and can be played in the background of whatever you’re doing. While I love American comedies like […] More

Remember during Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Season 3 when Rebecca was being drugged by her mother and started to believe that Naomi was being kind to her?

My Mom, Greg’s Mom, and Josh’s Sweet Dance Moves!
‘My Mom, Greg’s Mom, and Josh’s Sweet Dance Moves’ is the first holiday episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. It stands out to me because it highlights the roots of a lot of Rebecca’s problems. We have all seen it countless times, when anyone on television (even in real life) addresses their issues, usually in therapy, it comes […] More
