Hello, fandom friends! Well, the Nerd Olympics (or a better analogy) is over for this year. Time for us all — or, more accurately, the ones who were lucky enough to snag tickets — to retreat back into the Internet. Perhaps to come out again at New York Comic Con. Perhaps only to peek our… Read more »
Have you checked out Syfy’s space bounty hunter drama Killjoys? Though the series’ pilot is a little clunky, the show is a lot of fun — and it’s doing a lot to fill the Firefly-shaped hole still festering away in my TV-loving heart. Don’t get me wrong: Killjoys is not doing the exact same thing… Read more »
Relive all of the excitement of the Dark Matter series premiere with this gif-cap from new contributor Christina. Re-re-re-re-re-reeeecaaaaaaaaaaaap!!! Oh no! Life support systems are down! The ship wakes up its frozen inhabitants. Boring White Guy Jace Corso tries to fix stuff. Awesome Woman Portia Lin violently elbows him out of the way and gets…shit…done. Life support is… Read more »
It’s hard to believe Game of Thrones season 5 has already ended. Probably because, until the last few episodes, pretty much nothing happened. But we finally have a lot to talk about, so we better get to it… First of all, Stannis. His wife kills herself after letting her daughter be sacrificed (women are emotional and… Read more »
I spend way too much time getting down on myself about the TV episodes I haven’t gotten around to watching, the think pieces I have yet to read, and the sure-to-be pop culture-shattering articles I have yet to move from my brain to the screen. Call it fandom-related FOMO. Call it the insatiable desire to succeed we Millennials… Read more »
And… they’re back! Who’s excited? I know I am. I really do miss The Fosters when they’re not around. There’s something about this wholesome drama that adds to my life and makes me feel like everything will be alright. Glad to have you back, friends. Let’s start with the obvious: I told you so —… Read more »
Well, it’s finally happening. The season is getting a bit interesting. Obviously it’s also almost over, but you know, it’s better (really) late than never. Remember how I said Stannis is the worst? I think now it’s pretty well established. Ramsay’s little plan was apparently to sneak into Stannis’ camp and just burn all the food… Read more »
There has been a lot of digital ink spilled over the way Game of Thrones portrays sexual violence and women. This article is not specifically about that. In spite of being very into genre TV and pop culture in general, I don’t watch GoT. I’m just maxed out on rape, violence, and objectification content right… Read more »
Friends, I am sorry to tell you this, but Game of Thrones has done it again. It finally felt like the season is picking up, but then this episode showed up to remind us that even with only 10 episodes a season, Game of Thrones doesn’t feel particularly rushed to move the story forward. “Hardhome”… Read more »
For most of this episode, I was torn between knowing I would need some serious self-care, and wanting desperately to comfort Jamie, and explain to him that he’s not alone. So much of what he experiences is what all male survivors of sexual abuse experience. I know that saying you’re just like everyone else is… Read more »
