Riverdale: Lil' Crime Stoppers

Jughead informs us that every fairy tale has essentially the same warning: don’t go into the woods because there’s nothing but trouble there. Examples include Little Red Riding Hood meeting a hungry wolf and Goldilocks finding the three bears’ house.…

Star Trek: Discovery “Lethe”

Previously on Star Trek: Discovery: Michael Burnham was Starfleet’s first mutineer, yadda yadda yadda, she grew up as Sarek’s “ward”, blah blah blah, Captain Lorca brought her to the USS Discovery which is the only Starfleet ship with a…

Riverdale: Death diner for cutie

I have only one thing to say about the townspeople of Riverdale: these hoes ain’t loyal. Pop’s Chock’lit Shoppe has been open since the 1950s and it’s the local hangout for kids and adults alike. But you have one little…

Star Trek (TAS) “Bem”

The Stardate is 7403.6, which now that I think about it, could be the date this script was finished or something. It makes me wonder now how many Stardates are actually secret codes, like somebody’s telephone number or some hot…

Riverdale: Daddy in a coma

“Our story is not over,” begins Jughead’s narration for the season 2 premiere of Riverdale. Hell yeah, it isn’t! Welcome to the town where there’s creepy wig rooms, strange obsessions with maple syrup, dramatic funerals, and an absurd amount…

Star Trek: Discovery "The Vulcan Hello"

Here we are at last: the first new Star Trek TV series in 12 years. The pilot episode, titled “The Vulcan Hello” (which sounds like something Star Trek characters would travel to Risa to have performed upon them) aired last…

Star Trek: Enterprise “These Are the Voyages...” (part 1 of 2)

As incredible as it is to believe, it’s now been over 12 years since Star Trek: Enterprise aired its final episode. At the time, ratings for the show were hitting all-time lows, Nemesis had recently bombed in theaters, and there…

Game of Thrones: We’re going to need a bigger wall!

So, overall the season 7 finale episode was kind of an “L” in the Team Good Guys column, what with (1) the Night’s King and Viseri-Zombie completely demolishing the Wall, thereby allowing the Zombie Army to enter Westeros proper; and…

Now you’ve really done it, Night King! I stuck up for you when people said bad things. I thought you were just “misunderstood.” I was digging your style, your cool hand gestures, the magical charisma you had. Whenever you entered…

Game of Thrones: Breathers unite!

Holy exposition episode, Batman! Let’s see, we got the legitimization of Jon’s Snow’s birth, Cersei’s pregnancy, the triumphant return of That Rowing Guy, and Littlefinger getting exposed for shadiness again (possibly on purpose?). We’ve also got characters moving all across…

Game of Thrones: The Khaleesi strikes back

It is most definitely “No more Ms. Nice Mother of Dragons” this week, as Dany pours a heaping helping of hellfire mixed with Sweet Revenge on an unsuspecting Lannister army. (Meanwhile, somewhere in Heaven, Lady Olenna is performing the Best…
