Some of the greatest comedians from the original Def Comedy Jam hit the stage, but mostly to read off prompters and introduce clips and others. Leaving only a handful of moments where you understand how this show became a hit.
Tiffany Haddish: She Ready! From the Hood to Hollywood – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
While not a potential classic, and kind of disappointing after Girl’s Trip, Tiffany Haddish: She Ready! From the Hood to Hollywood is a decent comedy special.
Castlevania: Season 1 – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
I can’t remember where, but recently I read something to the effect of Netflix being the new HBO. Something which Castlevania adds fuel to. If only because, while gloriously violent, like some HBO shows, it is rather thin in story.
SukaSuka (World’s End): Season 1 – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
SukaSuka, World’s End, and the one or two other titles you can find for it are as confusing as its names. If only because it is the type of show which has potential, but it keeps focusing on this one particular thing. Something which it, even in the end really, it doesn’t get right, but…
GLOW: Season 1 – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
GLOW is very much like an action movie. When there is fighting you are engaged and kind of like “Wow, look at them.” However, when the leads start talking about their problems, you begin to understand why Netflix is probably the only company which would greenlight something like this.
Alice to Zouroku: Season 1 – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
Alice to Zouroku starts off strong, but then it becomes a slice of life kind of show. One which just so happens to feature some low-key sci-fi elements.
Sarah Silverman: A Speck of Dust – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
Sarah Silverman is the type of comedian who definitely isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. Yes, she is/was popular enough to have her own show. However, she isn’t the type of comedian who gets their own movies. Which is fine since she is at her best in supporting roles, see A Million Ways To Die In…

Rodney King (2017) – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
Being that what happened to Rodney King happened while I was still in diapers, it has been a tale more so told often than truly felt. Yet, with so many looking to retell his story or what happened during the aftermath, it seemed only fitting to start at the beginning. To watch a one man…
Laura Mvula: Generation Anxiety – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
While you could write this off as a 15-minute“Celebrities Are Like Us” piece, there is an attempt to get you to understand how debilitating anxiety can be and that those who suffer from it are not alone.
Rock and a Hard Place – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
For those of you familiar with the movie Major Payne from the 90s, imagine all the comedic elements stripped and Payne being part of a reform school.

Dave Chappelle: Deep In The Heart of Texas – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
The 2nd special which premiered on Netflix doesn’t up the ante or maintain the quality of the first, but it’s good enough that the desire to complain is minimum.
Star: Season 1 – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
When you got a formula which works, in which you can just change the actors (physically but keeping similar personalities), tinker with the storyline, and make something new, you use that! That is what Ryan Murphy has been doing for years and with Lee Daniels really gaining a lot of commercial notoriety with Empire, that…

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,…
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…
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.
