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.

Overview As Lori lurks in the shadows like the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland, Max says goodbye. Review (with Spoilers) As the season comes to a close, honestly I feel this maybe the last episode of Finding Carter I may watch. For while I still consider myself a fan of Kathryn Prescott and Alex…
Overview An unlikely pairing forge a friendship, one which seemingly is only forged because one got sick and tired of telling the other to leave. Review (with Spoilers) With Orphan Black being one of my favorite shows, naturally I would want to see Tatiana Maslany be in something else between the seasons. And while she…
Overview After all that has happened to Carter, or because of Carter, the time has come for redemption. Review (with Spoilers) With the most loved character of the show in a coma, naturally a lot of guilt bears down on Carter’s head. Whether it is from Taylor, whose first real boyfriend is on the verge…
Overview Whenever a gun gets involved in any teen drama, a countdown begins. For you know, sooner or later, someone is going to die, or at least get shot, because of that gun. Review (with Spoilers) Sometimes I wonder why Carter is with Crash. Does she like the idea of taking care of a baby…

Especially in light of the news of Elizabeth’s affair. Something…
Overview On the twins birthday everyone gets a bit emotional. Either due to Carter talking about leaving or because Elizabeth’s affair is revealed. Review (with Spoilers) With only one episode seemingly left before this goes on hiatus, I must admit this made for a decent episode. Watching Elizabeth have a moment reminiscing when was the…
Overview Interesting concept, bad execution. Review (with Spoilers) With The Boondocks creator Aaron McGruder kicked out of his own series, and it seeming like Black Jesus was meant to be his comeback, I must say I had high hopes. For despite his Jesus having the type of wig which I’m sure only cost $20-30, and…

Review (with Spoilers) In what may be the last episode of the season, if not series, possible reasons for war are renewed. For with the human politics increasing in complication, Gabriel infiltrating the city, Edward leaving, and a…
Overview A lot of people are given 2nd chances, but the question is: Are they deserving of one? Review (with Spoilers) With only a few episodes left, at least from what I can tell, I must admit that even as much as I like the series, it wouldn’t necessarily sadden me if it wasn’t renewed…
Overview As the twins, Carter and Taylor, grow closer to someone they thought they never would, it seems Elizabeth and David’s relationship still is decaying. Review (with Spoilers) As I said in episode 2, “I may end up with mixed emotions about 99% of the characters” and damn if it wasn’t true. For, until this…
Overview As Gabriel returns to cause some havoc, the show loses some of its momentum. Review (with Spoilers) After building up the politics of Vega for the last few episodes, the bigger battle against Gabriel returns to focus and it feels like we are right back where we started with this show not having good…
Overview In this white savior narrative, an idealistic American woman shows the talents of the indigenous kids of Australia by having them do Hamlet.
Overview With a short lived triumph comes a lot of characters fostering the darkness in themselves and making it seem Alex maybe the savior to a people hardly worth saving. Review (with Spoilers) The season is really getting better and better with each episode. Characters are evolving, the story is becoming more rich, and honestly…

Overview As David preps for political civil war in Vega, Alex confronts his inability to protect humans from angels.

Overview As Carter begins to rebel just to upset Elizabeth, Max finds his value outside of being Carter’s ex-boyfriend rising. Review (with Spoilers) After finishing episode 3, I must say I am appreciative that the majority of MTV’s scripted series are only given 10-12 episode seasons. If only because I feel the gimmick of this…
Overview With the introduction of another angel, as well as a senator learning of the chosen one, the show begins to show why Alex would possibly want to leave Vega. Review (with Spoilers) I would consider this the episode when Dominion begins to get into a nice stride and really exhibit why the show was…
Overview As people start getting attached to Carter, she finds herself making some feel pushed away. Perhaps for good reason. Review (with Spoilers) There is such an odd complexity to this show, if just because like Switched at Birth on ABC Family, there are very few people who you can see rooting for, and justifying…
Overview Lose a daughter, find a stranger Review (with Spoilers) As you can imagine, finding a Skins alumni on a new show is a big deal. Especially when it was one of the actors who played one of your favorite characters. So imagine MTV, who really are improving with the shows they green light, hiring…
Overview A film focused on the long goodbye to a parent who fought as long as they could. Trigger Warning(s): Deals with death of parent and children with cancer Review (with Spoilers) With top billing belonging to Amy Adams, the familiar face of Jessica Brown Findlay from Downton Abbey, and a sad topic which seemed…
Overview As David Whele pushes to create a power struggle in Vega, Alex takes a walk down memory lane Review (with Spoilers) Even after watching Legion I still am sort of iffy on this show, but don’t necessarily think it is bad. It sort of reminds me of the odd sci-fi shows of the late…
Overview As word of Alex being the chosen one gets downplayed by the big names in Vega, Gabriel seems to be the only one to take this reveal seriously. Review (with Spoilers) At this point I think angels are basically being used, as well as a concept of god taking a vacation, in a slightly…
When a movie is a hit, it makes studios think it garners a sequel. But Think Like a Man Too is the epitome of why too much of a good thing is bad.
Overview A reminder that all demons were once angels. Review (with Spoilers) I should probably begin by saying I did not watch Legion prior to seeing this, but will likely soon so I have a full grasp on what is happening. For, as of the pilot, I am finding this show a tad bit odd…
Overview Welcome to the end of an era, and the start of something likely less stable. Review (with Spoilers) After so many beloved characters dying this season, it makes even the series changing one which comes in the finale something which you hunch your shoulders at. But, with us getting in touch with most of…
Overview After “A Whole Other Hole” you may have wanted Rosa’s backstory, well here it is. Review (with Spoilers) Because Rosa has always been the sick one in the background during the first season, I never took much note of her. She was just there like an extra. This episode though made her become one…
Overview In this story of two brothers, one a cop and another a convict, you get what seems like a Martin Scorsese inspired movie which lacks stars but tries to emulate his storytelling. Trigger Warning(s): Rape like circumstance Review (with Spoilers) It is amazing to me how a film starring such actresses like Marion Cotillard,…
Overview If you enjoy Robin Williams showing that not only is he past his prime, but desperately trying to relive his glory days, watch this. Review (with Spoilers) I’m not exactly sure what happened to Robin Williams over the years which made him so difficult to watch. Have directors just stopped trying to do their…
Overview The season finale mostly gives you what you expect to happen, with little to no surprises. Review (with Spoilers) 13 episodes over one weekend. The backstories of Taystee, Poussey, Vee, Suzzane, Red, Rosa and Gloria, as well as others who really weren’t that interesting. But, even with Sophia being largely absent, these women really…
Overview We’ve almost reached the end of the line and if there is one thing that should be noted in this episode: Never, ever, trust Vee. Review (with Spoilers) As you can tell by now, Vee pretty much took whatever significance Sophia had, among others, and damn near stole the season. Arguably she is only…
Overview When people don’t show humility, bad things happen. Which even when you pray, sometimes can’t be avoided. Review (with Spoilers) If you recall season 1, the reason why the girls all came together, despite racial differences, was because Mendez was such a bully that he had to go. But, one thing they couldn’t do…
Overview With a 2nd Piper episode comes a rehash on her relationship with Alex, but luckily the episode is saved by Red and Vee’s continuing issues.

Overview Another episode which may feature one character, Red in particular, but Vee finds some way to make sure she shares the spotlight. Review (with Spoilers) With Mendez’s return you probably expect him to cause a lot of BS, but in fact it is Bennett that causes issues. But, for the most part, the focus…
Overview Black Cindy is the focus of the episode, as is Red’s resurgence and Vee’s new booming business. Review (with Spoilers) In “Comic Sans” there is a strong focus on everyone trying to find some way to cope and deal with their situation the best they can. For some, like Cindy, it is with laughter;…
Overview With the focus being on Valentine’s Day and Poussey, we witness love and its complications. Review (with Spoilers) With many prisoners leaving lovers behind, it makes Valentine’s day a bit of an awful holiday. But while the prisoners surely hate the day, so do the staff as well. They feel just as much prisoners…
