This Barry review contains spoilers. Barry Season 3 Episode 3 One of the best things about Barry is its runtime. At just a half hour, the typical episode of Barry packs a ton of story into its 30-minute slot. The shorter runtime allows for a brisk storytelling pace, and through two seasons, you can never
This The Simpsons review contains spoilers. The Simpsons Season 33 Episode 20 The Simpsons celebrates Mother’s Day by giving America’s most representational mom a break in character. “Marge the Meanie” counts as a gift. The family dynamic is slightly ajar, but the episode has the timing of the best of the series’ offerings. The premise
Ground control to Alex Kurtzman and Jenny Lumet: the stars are aligned, but look very different today. The Man Who Fell to Earth is a standalone sequel series, using Nicholas Roeg’s 1976 film as an alternative energy source. With Walter Tevis’ 1963 science fiction novel The Man Who Fell to Earth as a launching pad,
This RIVERDALE review contains spoilers. Riverdale Season 6 Episode 13 “Those dark secrets that we all carry in our hearts, I am those secrets…” Riverdale continues to be anything but dull. With the apocalypse looming, the series’ latest episode focused on…overdue library books. Yes friends, you read that correct. The next step in Percival Pickens’
This post contains spoilers for MOON KNIGHT. Gods have always been part of the MCU. Wakandans thank Bast and Sekhmet, Captain America assured Black Widow that “There’s only one God,” and the Celestials shown in Guardians of the Galaxy and Eternals create and destroy worlds. But without question, the series most concerned with deities has
Truth be told, the human species has always been interested in the dark subject that we now call “true crime.” In the Western mythological canon, the very first story after the creation of man and the Garden of Eden is literally that of a fratricide. Still, you may have noticed of late that pop culture’s
This article contains spoilers for The Sound of Magic. Adapted from a webtoon called Annarasumanara, Netflix’s latest Korean-language release, The Sound of Magic, is a quick watch at only six episodes—much shorter than most K-drama fare.

While many gamers associate the SNES with a simpler time filled with all-time great games that were often appropriate for the whole family, the truth is that quite a few notable SNES games were actually censored ports. As we previously discussed in our look at some of the most notable censored NES games, it’s not
While there is so much to be said about The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind 20 years after its release, there are few aspects of that all-time great game I love to think about more than The 36 Lessons of Vivec. There are over 300 books in Morrowind, but few (with the obvious exception of The
Square Enix started May off with a bang by announcing that the company sold Crystal Dynamics and Eidos Interactive, as well as those studios’ respective franchises, to Embracer Group. That umbrella organization already has its fingers in many game studios and franchises (such as THQ Nordic’s Darksiders and Deep Silver’s Saints Row), and this recent
