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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Grandma Francis is looking to die. But before she goes out, she pushes everyone to realize how she shaped their father and them.
It’s easy to get desensitized. Both in terms of what the show offers and in general. Thus making the job of an actor harder for they have to give more of themselves over to you – the audience. Now, up to this point, I shed no tears, felt no significant shock, and only admired Moss…
Daytime Divas throws every single issue in the modern soap opera book into the pilot. Yet, despite being heavy loaded, there isn’t a single actress you don’t want to invest time in.
SukaSuka (WorldEnd) has its first real emotional moment. However, it comes from neither Willem nor Chtholly.
After Can We Take a Joke? and Dying Laughing, there is some desire to say I understand comedy. Add in documentaries on Richard Pryor and you learn to respect those who step up on stage. But while those documentaries give you some perspective, I’m Dying Up Here presents a dramatization all that. It gives you a long…
For a lot of characters, the goal is finding who they truly are? With that comes growth and character development. Well, if you are a well-known name in the Batman universe. Everyone else suffers the same way Fish Mooney does. They rise from the dead, have their moment, and are sent back to the grave….
Alice to Zouroku finally tries to balance its pursuit of being a slice of life anime by establishing a new villain. Just not like the kind we saw earlier in the season.
Magane [note]I know I’m inconsistent when it comes to her name[/note] takes on Meteora’s role of being the talkative one. But, at the very least, she knows how to remain interesting as she goes on and on.
While Buffy’s storyline sticks with what we’re used to, Andi and Bex’s maintains the show’s more mature direction.
Nina’s connection with Favaro and Jeanne D’Arc, is the focus in “Same Old, Same Old.” For Favaro, it is her history with him and with Jeanne, her potential future.
Joe’s blind patriotism, as with most of his beliefs, has exceptions. However, being that he has an eternal struggle with Jerrod, he can’t lose one single battle to his boy.
As usual with The Carmichael Show, we are given a complicated topic, in this case, rape. Something which gets dissected as if this was a chat show. One in which, like The View, The Real, or Real Time with Bill Maher [note] Odd group, I know [/note] there are multiple points of views you may…
Would it be wrong, if not odd, to say I was a bit bored by “Jezebel?” Granted, we got another character’s background story and saw someone from June’s past, but I found it difficult to be excited or engaged. To help understand why, look below.
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.
