The New Edition Story (Part 1) – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
All TV Biopics aim to be on the level of the Temptations or Little Richard, but often times they at worse are the Aaliyah movie or on the level of CrazySexyCool. However, with The New Edition Story, be it because it is in multiple parts and not cramming 5 lives and careers into two hours,…

Gotham: Season 3/ Episode 13 "Mad City: Smile Like You Mean It" – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) You know, something I’ve learned about Gotham is that it never will try to put you completely off. What I mean is, while it may experiment with a new villain, a new twist on an old character, it often maintains the things it knows fans would like. Be it Selina and…

Believe: Season 1/ Episodes 1 to 6.5 – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
Overview Think Touch with less mystery, more likable characters, and a kid which can actually communicate.

Overview Despite all the programs currently on OWN, for the most part, if it didn’t have Oprah’s name on it, if she wasn’t interviewing someone, I honestly felt it wasn’t worth watching.

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) I haven’t reviewed an episode of Gotham since early in the 2nd season but I still watch the show.

Believe: Series Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NkpOO47Q3I Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) I should probably note, I’m speaking on this series mostly out of nostalgia and while I will recognize its fault which led it to only having one season, I figured this would be better than just spamming this blog with all of season 1’s episodes. So, with that said, let’s…

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Like HBO, Showtime, AMC, FreeForm and etc, there is a certain expectation which comes from announced projects.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2U8xDqmKZu4 Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) I had to double check if I was watching the right show when the episode started.

Chaos;Child: Season 1/ Episode 0 "Chaos;Head" & 1 "Digital Negative" – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPoweoGCUgU Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) It has been nearly a decade since Chaos;Head was released and honestly I only remember that I watched it. Making episode 0 decent for sparking up some memories but, combined with episode 1, honestly unless you like seeing bodies twisted, mangled, or disfigured, I’m not sure what you may get…
Girl Meets World: Season 3/ Episode 20 "Girl Meets Sweet Sixteen" – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E38IcmCvIMw Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) With the recent decision that Disney will be cancelling the show, despite a reported plan 4th season previously agreed on, you’d have to wonder why?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nyc3bclxqm8 Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Unrequited love, especially from a person you have access to, who interacts with you but never develops the same feelings you have for them is a weight on the heart. This is on full display and may sadly bring back memories of not the proverbial “One who got away” but…
Beyond: Season 1/ Episode 10 "Into the Light" [Season Finale] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Like most season finales, outside of maybe Game of Thrones, we don’t end things on a high but a fizzle.

Beyond: Season 1/ Episode 8 "The Last Action Hero" – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

ACCA: 13-ku Kansatsu-ka: Season 1/ Episode 1 "Jean the Cigarette-Peddler" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) With a drab art style, a lead who seems disinterested in anything besides smoking, paired with subordinates who are annoying jokey and someone who is envious of our lead and wants to take him down a peg… I feel so tricked by the preview.
