Overview Before Yun joins Hak and Yona on their journey, we see what led to him meeting Ik-Su. Review (with Spoilers) I don’t remember if I ever cried while watching this show, but oh my eyes got watery as Yun’s backstory was shared. Even though we just met the child. For more on “The Chosen…
Overview As Rose gets married, people talk about leaving, the future, and then a scandal erupts. Review (with Spoilers) Sometimes I forget that British programming usually don’t have 24 episode seasons, but the benefit of that is they rarely overstay their welcome. However, with only 8 episodes this season, I must admit there was an…
Overview As a lot of drama gets resolved, Lord Merton’s sons ruin a nearly peaceful episode. Review (with Spoilers) Well it seems I was wrong about Edith’s exit, but nonetheless it does seem a few characters are certainly planning for life after Downton.

Overview As things begin to settle down at Downton, partly due to bad news, it seems one person makes their exit. Review (with Spoilers) Though nowhere near World War II, it is quite interesting to hear mentions of Hitler as news about Mr. Gregson comes in. But, recognizing World War II likely won’t be covered,…
Overview Stanley finally gets a body, as Elsa deals with a rebellious freak show. Review (with Spoilers) In “Test of Strength” it seems things may slightly get interesting. For while Dell may not be a savior, he certainly makes for a better villain than Elsa. However, with Stanley as the puppet master, perhaps he is…
Overview As Charlie’s condition, and Dr. Naday, instill hope, not everyone is able to easily find happiness. Review (with Spoilers) While we get to the heart of Hunter’s issues, seemingly Emma’s still won’t be dived into. Something which is troubling since there is still no word if the show may get cancelled or not. For…

Overview As Soo-Won is crowned, and speaks on the future of Kouka, Yona meets the exiled priest. Review (with Spoilers) Considering Soo-Won’s intentions for Kouka, I do wonder how much he may end up actually getting accomplished. For with him needing to unite the clans, and fend off the northern and southern kingdoms, he has…
Overview As the freak show goes on, one of the actual freaks step out of the background. Review (with Spoilers) The season continues its decline and seems to not even desire to be seen as interesting. For as Dandy falls for the twins, Elsa deals with a sort of rebellion, and Dell and Desiree have…
Overview As Dandy takes over as town serial killer, Stanley and Dr. Bonham get people’s hopes up. Trigger Warning(s): Dismemberment Review (with Spoilers) After the death of Twisty, unfortunately it seems “Pink Cupcakes” neither has American Horror Story: Freak Show plateau or continue to rise. For with the compelling villain gone, and a weak replacement…
Overview As Nurse Jackson fights for Charlie to stay, the love triangle between Jordi, Emma, and Leo explodes. Review (with Spoilers) After a hiatus, due to the World Series, Red Band Society picks up right from where we left off and adds two characters. Neither of which shake the world we are introduced to, as…
Overview Two characters die this episode, can you guess which ones? Trigger Warning(s): Grotesque Imagery Review (with Spoilers) Consider me a bit shocked when it comes to who dies this episode, especially what happens after. Mostly because what happens in “Edward Mondrake (Part 2)” seems like it should have been saved for a midseason finale….
Overview Hope is in short supply this episode and, because of that, people are getting desperate. Review (with Spoilers) Despite the MLB having their own network, it seems Fox is going to make it so this is the last episode of Red Band Society until November. Which sucks since between Charlie and the Emma love…
Overview As Awkward returns, it seems soon it will be out with the old and a remix of the familiar.

Overview As the political battle begins, a call for war follows. Review (with Spoilers) Things are finally getting interesting on the show. For with Yona now within the safety of the Wind Clan, and the Wind Clan being filled with nice everyday folk, you know only bad things are bound to happen. Of which, due…
Overview As Jenna finds a new reason to be mad at Matty, Tamara comes up with something known as the Dude Database.
Overview Young Ones is like a post-apocalyptic western focused on life after a severe drought ruins a local area’s economy. Review (with Spoilers) With quite a few familiar names amongst the cast such as Nicholas Hoult, Elle Fanning, as well as Kodi Smit-McPhee, I felt instantly drawn to the film. However, as time goes on…
Overview As Halloween comes around, a lot of the freaks take off their mask more so than put one on.

Overview Automata is similar to I, Robot, but without the charisma of Will Smith to help keep things interesting.
Overview As Jimmy seeks normalcy for the freaks, Dell tries to take control of the freaks and the freak show. Review (with Spoilers) Thank the heavens for Angela Bassett and Michael Chiklis.

Overview As people get a bit too comfortable in their secrets, slowly their lives begin to unravel. Review (with Spoilers) Past and current relationships are gone into and we see just how fragile each one is.

With this having politics, love, drama, and promises of good battles and action, I think this maybe my kind of show.
Overview Three brothers living in the beginning of the Meiji period find themselves to be bounty hunters, sort of, to deal with rebellious samurai. Review (with Spoilers) When it comes to anime, if they are action oriented, and aren’t part of the mecha sub-genre, I usually give them a chance. As for this show, with…
Overview As Jordie’s lies are exposed, we see Emma and Leo’s relationship develop as well as Kara and Nurse Jackson’s. Review (with Spoilers) As the weeks pass on Red Band Society, I’m starting to think little things tidbits maybe slipping by us.

Overview As we return to the Abbey, as usual drama awaits behind every door, in every field, and mischief is constantly on the mind. Review (with Spoilers) Bless the existence of the internet for otherwise I would have to wait who knows how many months for this to come to America. Of which I refuse…
Overview Most shows explore diversity through different colored faces, and by who is kissing who. But as for Black-Ish, it is all about what it means to be Black and what that represents. Review (with Spoilers) I’m not going to lie to you, when I heard Anthony Anderson was in this I thought it was…
Overview After last week’s drama, we watch as everyone licks their wounds in their own special way. Review (with Spoilers) As Jenna continues to mature as a person, and everyone catches up with Tamara, it seems Sadie is no longer the villain of the show.
