The Walking Dead season 6 finale Last Day on Earth has left some fans very angry with its ridiculous cliffhanger ending and I’m one of them. I’ve waited a week to write about my feelings on the finale because I didn’t want to come over all incoherent and super ranty and I’m going to try …
Spoilers ahead for the Sleepy Hollow season 3 finale, Ragnarok. I went into the finale of Sleepy Hollow still miffed about Joe’s death wondering why the producers would rip him away from Jen like that. Little did I know I was about to have my own heart ripped out! The Mills girls deserve nice things …
I took a break from AMCs The Walking Dead after the Richonne reveal. I never saw it coming but it seemed like everyone else had been wishing, hoping and expecting it. I spent days overthinking things and wondering if we were all watching the same thing. It was a ridiculous endeavour really. I mean I’ve …
As a long-time fan of the supernatural drama series Haven, I eagerly awaited the double-episode series finale, which consisted of Episode 25: Now and Episode 26: Forever. While these episodes may not have been the best the series had to offer, they provided a fitting conclusion to a show that has been a staple in my viewing routine …
2015 wasn’t a bad year for new science fiction / fantasy series premières but for me not all of them hit the mark. There were four shows in particular that I was looking forward to watching but they failed to slay me. Here’s my list: Ash Vs. Evil Dead Let’s start with a no brainer. I’m not …
When I heard that Steve Lund would be returning to Haven, I had hoped we would find out what happened to James Cogan aka The Colorado Kid, after the barn exploded. But in this week’s episode entitled Just Passing Through, Nathan and Vince travel back to 1983 where we saw how James died. With only …
Having watched this week’s episode of Haven, I’m going to go out on a limb and say that Dave Teagues is not Croatoan regardless of what he stands accused of. It’s more than likely that as a halfling child from another world, it’s easier for the monster to take over Dave’s body and commit evil …
Enter Sandman could be considered a lesson in why Audrey shouldn’t be nice to people all the time. Remember back in episode 15, Power, where Audrey was considerate to the Sandman’s feelings? Well, dude went and developed a crush on her. In this episode, he has her trapped in one of his elaborate dreamless sleeps …
In my review of last week’s Haven episode, Power, I totally called it when I said that Kira Fletcher was alive and that her fiancé Tony had a dark secret. Let’s take a moment to do a happy dance before discussing this week’s episode, The Trial of Nathan Wuornos. Last week I assumed Kira was …
The original Battlestar Galactica starred Lorne Green, Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict. It was a high-budget sci-fi series created in the 1970s by Glen A Larson. Despite the outdated costumes and props, it’s still fondly remembered by fans. The 2003 Battlestar Galactica series was developed by Ronald D Moore and executive produced by Moore and …
There’s a serial killer running around and Haven is losing power at a time when Team Haven are dealing with a Darkness Trouble. The second half of Haven’s season 5 double episode return skips ahead two weeks. That means it’s been two weeks since Duke left town, leaving his newly created Troubled People behind. Team …
Haven is finally back after a 10-month long break. Despite the long gap between episodes SyFy is still calling these final 13 episodes season 5B rather than Season 6. I’m just grateful that we will get closure over the course of the season and talk about what happened in episode 14, New World Order. When …
Taking a leaf out of Arrow’s play book I’m starting this review of Green Arrow by jumping to the final scenes of the Arrow Season 4 premier before jumping back. Like what’s up with the gravestone? And are flash forwards going to be a thing? Please don’t let them be a thing, I’m so over …
Pretty Little Liars has defined a genre that I like to call Chain Yank TV. A series will fall into this genre when: This series has spent the last 6 seasons stretching out a mystery that could have been wrapped up in a couple of seasons. I don’t blame the creators for making their money …
Despite comparing Minority Report to Blindspot and Limitless and dismissing them all as crime of the week procedurals. I will be giving Minority Report the four-episode test. Just like Sleepy Hollow, I want this show to work. The fact that I even mention Sleepy Hollow should give you a hint as to where my head …
What do Minority Report, Blindspot and Limitless have in common? Apart from premièring this week these three new shows are cop procedurals trying to dress themselves up as something else. For the most part it’s not working and I’m not sure if either of these shows will be given the four-episode consideration. Limitless Limitless is …
When Haven premièred back in summer 2010 the show posed three main questions in the first season: Who was Lucy to Audrey? Who killed the Colorado Kid? Who created The Troubles? Though it was thought that Lucy was Audrey’s mother by the season 1 finale, Spiral, we got the answer to the first question. Lucy …
Season 2, Episode 3 Bitten keeps up the pace of the previous two episodes as it explores the story of the witches in this episode entitled Hell’s Teeth. Kidnapped The episode opens with the young witch Paige telling an even younger witch, Savannah how it’s going to be. Basically, Savannah is grounded and she’s not …
Season 2, Episode 2 The “previously on Bitten” montage reminds us that Clay was bitten when he was ten years old. This hints at what is to come and we don’t have to wait long to see a flashback of young Clay at home with his mum. It’s cute and timely, as I wouldn’t have …
Season 2, episode 1: Bad Blood It seems like an eternity since the Season 1 finale of Bitten aired but in reality it’s only been a year. One long arse year to be sure but it’s okay, we are here now with two back-to-back episodes to kick of the new season. Things have changed this …
Season 5 deviates from the books For those of us who haven’t read the books yet, Season 5 of Game of Thrones will be a welcome level playing field as the series starts to deviate from what is written in the books. Book readers will be as much in the dark as the rest of …
Since the death of Actor Lee Thompson Young in August 2013, fans have been wondering how his absence would be explained in Rizzoli and Isles. In the show, Lee played techie Detective Barry Frost who was a good cop but didn’t have the stomach for dead bodies and autopsy rooms. When the show first started …

Join me as we explore the struggles of the last survivors, their fight for survival, and the challenges they face in a world filled with danger and uncertainty. The setting: Earth …
I love Game of Thrones so I give it a lot of latitude in the nudity department because I just want the story to progress. That’s what you do when you like something right – give it the freedom to express itself and see where the adventure leads. Well, I tuned in to the third …
