Overview OWN is a slept on channel. Granted, starting things off with a slew of Tyler Perry productions didn’t begin its scripted foray with the best reputation. However, since branching out to different visionaries OWN arguably has gained the type of programming you’d have expected the decades old BET to have had years ago. So…
Overview Family. Be it by bonds created by blood or choices we made, it gets complicated. But no matter the bond it always takes two or more to maintain that connection and keep it beneficial. Which can be hard when ego, our own inability to communicate, and distrust gets in the way.
Overview Everyone grieves differently and the pain isn’t consistent. There are good days and bad days, but it is the things left behind which matter most. So when those things are being ravaged through or taken from you, naturally it can lead to you being left a bit messed up. Which with what everyone is…
Overview Three people all missing one person each. Is the key to saving that person their dreams? Much less this mysterious rich man named Bill Boerg? Trigger Warning(s): Suicide
Overview As it seems more hosts begin to gain memory functions beyond their design, in the distance trouble is coming possibly from corporate. Trigger Warning(s): Gratuitous Violence (Gun Violence)
Overview It’s the birth of a new series and strangely, it’s a dramedy. Which is surprising in a good way for it makes it feel like Atlanta is bridging the gap between the comedy star Donald Glover is known for and the rare, non-soap opera styled depiction of not only Black people but issues which…
Overview Episode 2 arguably isn’t about pushing the story forward or featuring its stars. It is more so about establishing the people the stars live around and their environment. For whether it is normal people who get arrested for just drinking on their porch, trans folk, or kids acting out what they hear on rap…
Overview “Go For Broke” arguably is about fighting becoming broke. For in the pursuit of dreams and all your ambition, there are bills to pay, children to feed and, in Earn’s case, a woman to try to not lose the respect of. Though, little by little, even if she loves him, his inability to compromise…
Overview Al, as has been seen, is a sensitive soul, a bit thin-skinned, but until this episode, we didn’t know how bad it was. Some online semi-famous person gets under his skin to the point he has to confront him. As that happens Darius and Earn go out because Earn needs some kind of money…
Overview Another show dealing with lawyers in and out of courtrooms and our protagonist using their eccentric team to get the verdict they want. Sounds like it could be boring right? Well, remix the situation with the protagonist being a psychologist and not a lawyer, and watch as even minor characters are analyzed and given…
Overview After the death of one boy’s mother he finds himself living with the family she left behind, likely for good reason. Rating: Watch It Trigger Warning(s): Blood, Drug Use, and Guns Characters Worth Noting Smurf (Ellen Barkin) | Andrew (Shawn Hatosy) | Barry (Scott Speedman) | Joshua (Finn Cole)

Overview Perception is everything. It is what allows a person to trust another and it determines how we are going to handle another person. Especially when it comes to our secrets, as well as our time. Yet looks can be deceiving so even at our best mistakes can be made. As seen in this episode.
Overview In a largely Vanessa focused episode, we see the struggles she is going through compared to her friends, and partly thanks to Earn.
Overview You know, the expectations which come from a show being part of the HBO brand often waver between being the next big thing or proof that all these premium stations have is the ability to be far more sexual and violent than their peers. With Westworld, you have to admit it seems a show…
Overview Whether you were an Awkward Black Girl fan or the marketing for this show got your interest peaked, welcome the next series which shows TV is way ahead of the game when it comes to diverse depictions of Black folk.
Overview So it seems, the past familiarity of storylines was just to draw you in, get you comfortable and settled, and while there isn’t some huge surprise or shock in “By Any Chance”, there are veers to paths perhaps not surely expected.
Overview Ralph Angel takes a back seat as the focus is on Charley’s business acumen and Nova’s journalism.
Overview Atlanta has its own unique quality of weird. Be it what Darius brings with his stoner persona, Earn who is the one with so much potential who hit rock bottom and is trying to climb his way back up, or even Al who is the man who, most of the time, is all bark…
Overview And so it ends. It ends without some questions being answered and some plots being resolved. But we knew this wouldn’t be like Naruto or Bleach and go on way past its expiration date. Yet, there is material left to cover so maybe there just maybe a bit of a time gap between seasons…
Overview With there only being an episode left, prepare to watch Subaru quickly fix his mistakes from the last round and be sort of left indifferent because you know this story isn’t going to wrap up all he has gone through.
Recap Things were going too well. Betelgeuse was defeated, Julius and Subaru were getting along, but it wasn’t clear what would ruin this feel good train. Well, we get our answer.
Recap With the White Whale dead, the next focus is the Witch’s Cult. But while finishing them off maybe the main goal, it seems Subaru may have to make time to fully reconcile with Julius.
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.
