You can always count on Netflix to produce a little gem of a show that might not air on regular TV. Atypical is one of these series. It follows the life of Sam Gardner (Keir Gilchrist), a teenager with autism that decides he wants to start dating girls, and his family: an overbearing mother (Jennifer... Continue Reading →
Review: Wonder Woman (2017)
*Spoilers on plot points in the end! The DC Cinematic Universe has not been my favourite thing lately. It just seems to continuously miss the mark for me, and just doesn't measure up to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Well, Wonder Woman changed the game on that. With this movie, DC stepped away from the forced hand... Continue Reading →
Review: Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (Series – Season 3)
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (UKS from now on) seems to be a love-it-or-meh sort of phenomenon. People either adore it (like myself) or they just think it's silly and not worth the watch. I mean sure, UKS is no Parks & Recreation, but it is just so unique! It is one of the most nonsensical American series... Continue Reading →
Review: “Crazyhead” (Series – Season 1)
I may be a bit late in reviewing this series, since it launched in late 2016.

It's not perfect or oh-so-original, but it was entertaining as hell and deserved... Continue Reading →
Review: “Sense8” (Series) – Season 2

As one does, I have binged on all ten episodes in a row because well, this is a series that is very hard to part with. Two years later (well, one and a... Continue Reading →
Review: “Dear White People” (2017)
This new Netflix show is based off of the 2014 movie of the same name, and premiered on the streaming platform on April 28th. I am the whitest person I know, and I consider myself to have some sort of understanding of racism and the discussion around it. Superficial as my knowledge is, this show... Continue Reading →
Review: ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2’
I'll start with the fangirl part of the review... WOW WOW OMG THIS WAS AMAZING I CAN'T EVEN. Most of the time, I love campy Marvel over poorly-executed broody DC (Nolan's Dark Knight as the exception), and 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2' delivers campy fun with more heart than most recent movies that came out...
