Documentaries, usually, are not about happy topics. They are about exposing someone’s suffering, sometimes their triumphs, but rarely is the most empowering tales without the shock someone survived all they were put through.

Amy Schumer (The Leather Special) – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
I’d like to think I enjoy vulgar comedy. After all, the majority of comedians I like can’t do a complete stand-up performance without some mention of bodily fluids, sex, or cursing. Much less, I’m a fan of the people Judd Apatow made famous. Yet, while I loved Trainwreck, I felt reminded why I have never…

Trevor Noah: Afraid of the Dark – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
While Trevor Noah, like many comedians today, dabbles in observations on politics, traveling and life, there isn’t a lot of yelling, screaming, cursing and what have you.

Take The Ten – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) After Revolori’s past performances in Dope as well as The Grand Budapest Hotel, combined Josh Peck’s work, of which I honestly only know him for The Wackness and appearing in David Dobrik videos (I wasn’t a Drake and Josh fan), there was some hope here. I figured, like XOXO, it would…

A Series of Unfortunate Events: Season 1 – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) If you look at the season as something made to appeal universally, you’ll be disappointed. However, if you look at this as a children’s series, one more so aimed at tweens or children, you learn to accept the show’s quality and style.

Jessica Jones: Season 1/ Episode 1 "AKA Ladies Night" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
Overview Like the majority of comic book adaptations in the modern age, Jessica Jones is dark, brooding, and somber. Making it so perhaps the one unique trait the show may have is the fact it has a female lead.
