What The Bold Type presents is what FreeForm is known for mixed with what made ABC Family great. It has FreeForm’s obsessive need to feature modelesque attractive young people. However, it also contains ABC Family’s ideology of pushing past the superficial and present stories and characters its viewers will become loyal to.
Unfortunately, after Sota’s confession, we return to Meteora delivering a long explanation of how things work and what’s to come. Which, while informative, may bore you into a nice nap.
Andi Mack’s season finale leaves us with a lot of hope for better things. Mostly when it comes to the various relationships in the series.
What hooks you as being a look into the Gawker v. Hulk Hogan case evolves into a warning message. A very familiar one not just about the elites bullying the press, but how Donald Trump is poison to the American democracy.
The war begins and humanity is nearly massacred. Thus leading Charoice to bring out the device he likely stole from the gods for a counterattack.
Glow is still struggling but is getting better. Mostly thanks to Cherry becoming more prominent as well as Melrose.
Glow doesn’t seem like a sure fire hit. If anything, like its wrestling theme, it’ll fit a niche. As for whether it is a big enough niche for Netflix to make another season? Well, let’s check out the rest of the season before saying that.
What are the rules of Black culture, much less the exceptions for white people saying the N-word? Said topics make for a weak episode, but I suspect the shooting one was supposed to be the peak before mundane topics.
Grieving isn’t something just for the dead. A loss of innocence, relationships, these are worth mourning over. But from the dead, the richness of once was life, blooms something new. Something we see quite a bit of in “To Usward.”
One of the hardly arguable highlights of Black media returns. And, as always, you find yourself smiling because of the family dynamics, crying tears over certain struggles they have, and end up triggered as well. To say the least, Queen Sugar remains an emotional roller coaster ride that as soon as it is over, you…
In Gomag City, where most of the lives Willem knew ended, Chtholly is triggered. Thus sending us into some flashbacks which answer, or clarify, a handful of things. Mostly in association with Willem.
If I was to be perfectly honest, I kind of want to drop this series. Yet, there is something which keeps me coming back. Maybe it is its potential? Perhaps the majority of the cast? It’s sort of hard to say, even with all that is noted below.
Resident Evil: Vendetta shows why the long-running franchise, while respected for longevity, is always met with skepticism.
In this coming of age story, a boy named Jack finds himself going from survival mode to potentially getting to a place of enjoying the life he was given.
With a reminder that children have feelings and perhaps how Sana came to be, the penultimate episode of Alice to Zouroku leaves you without excitement for the finale.
After dancing around, if not outright avoiding the topic, Sota finally goes into his part in Shimazaki’s death.
It was hard to not take an interest in The Book of Henry. It begins with you thinking this will be a love story between yet another child genius and a girl from a less than stellar home environment. However, then it evolves and you realize the kid is a psycho and he plans to…
Bex’s influence continues to change Andi into a more confident person. Leading her to make a decision no one would expect. Especially Jonah.
The gods have had enough, and they believe El can turn the tide. So with Charoice refusing to bend the knee, so comes a declaration of war.
And so Crashing comes to an end which arguably can work as both a season and series finale. Even though one semi-major question is left unanswered.
Sam topples a slew of dominoes leading to a massive fight. Alongside that, Colin makes a discovery which rocks his relationship with Melody.
Rough Night delivers on the laughs but pretty much flops story wise, character development wise, and its heart is as mechanical as Dick Chaney’s.
A lot of musicians try to hold out for a theatrical release. For while The Temptations and surely the New Edition movie set precedents on the silver screen, there is nothing like your life story on the big one. However, while many have to remind the masses why their story matters that isn’t the case…
With Bobby not wanting to go out with Maxine’s friend, because the family thinks she is unattractive, so begins another Maxine vs. the family moment.
As Kate and Anthony reach a new openness in their relationship, the various other relationships of the show continue to grow stronger.
Solidarity is what causes and maintains revolutions. But for solidarity to sprout there needs to be one voice. One refusal to the oppressor. Which is what we get in The Handmaid’s Tale finale: “Night.” Trigger Warning(s): Cutting open of flesh
During a dinner party, Lulu initiates a lot of conflicts, with some help from Sam. Making it so almost everyone shows their ass before the night is over.
Thankfully the show doesn’t drag out Maxine’s faux-coma, but it is starting to lose a little of its luster.
As we learn more about the beasts which wiped out humanity, the show tries to establish what everyone has to lose. Especially Willem.
Claws is not a show to be slept on. For with Niecy Nash’s experience, combined with her co-stars, you get a program which certainly will make your jaw drop. If you don’t find it predictable. Trigger Warning(s): Gun Violence & Violence Against Women
In episode two, you’ll still feel like you’re warming up to the characters. However, as they make you laugh, and not just Lulu, they begin to really grow on you.
In this post, you’ll find .gifs made for the various posts on Wherever I Look, or just for fun. Hopefully, you enjoy the .gifs created.
As Sana tries to teach Hatori a lesson, Hatori makes Sana’s magic cancel out. Which leads to consequences which affect them in wonderland but especially the real world.
As the new season’s tagline says, it’s the final trip and then it’ll be the end of our journey. But as for what awaits at our final destination? Well, that’s hard to say. Especially as those we considered villains take on a new mindset.
After Fleabag, there was the question of where Phoebe Waller-Bridge would take her talents to next. The answer? Crashing.
While Altair makes an appearance and there is a lot of action, something seems off. For even with another character’s life threatened, I find myself back to the complacency state of episode 4.
Home Away From Home left me teary eyed. For between Bex and CeCe, much less Bex and Andi, there is so much emotion. Far surpassing what we’ve ever seen on Disney Channel. Including Girl Meets World.
Episode 10 “The Way She Was” illustrates the fall of Jeanne D’Arc. It takes us from her being this otherworldly knight to someone bested by demons and sniveling subordinates.
Pretend We’re Kissing is perhaps the realest romance movie dealing with an introvert male I have ever seen. Especially one paired with an extrovert girl.
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
