By Dave Richards

September 17, 2018

Hello, and welcome back to my reviews of the Netflix corner of Marvel’s Cinematic Universe!

However, the end of The Defenders…

By Julia Keller

August 23, 2018

Life’s hard. People can be nasty jerks. Get over it. That’s the philosophy—as blunt as an uppercut, as bracing as a bourbon and branch for breakfast—shared by a quintet of fictional gumshoes I like to call the Great (But Pretty Much Forgotten) TV Detectives. Those cool, canny investigators who ruled the mean streets of series…

Danny Rand is just trying to keep the peace. Following a disappointing first season, Marvel’s Iron Fist looks to gain on the momentum of a fantastic Season 2 of Luke Cage with its own solo second season.

Netflix’s Latest True Crime Documentary, I Am a Killer, Focuses on the Stories of Convicted Killers on Death Row

By Crime HQ

August 16, 2018

So often, true crime documentaries focus on cases where the truth is unknown. New evidence either puts into question the conviction or reopens an investigation, and often times, the ambiguous ending can be frustrating. Netflix’s new true crime documentary, I Am a Killer, takes a different approach to true crime, interviewing death-row inmates about the murders…

By Hector DeJean

July 18, 2018

As several philosophers will tell you, all things eventually transform into their opposites. To see the proof of that, we need look no further than the final three episodes of Luke Cage Season 2. Luke (Mike Colter), who has sought to avoid shifting from Harlem’s hero to just another destructive force hurting his neighbors, finds…

Marvel’s Luke Cage Season 2 Review: Episodes 8-10

By Hector DeJean

July 11, 2018

Episode 7 ended in a bloodbath (Comanche, Piranha, Captain Ridenhour, Mariah’s brownstone), so it’s no surprise that Episode 8 has the cops rushing in and taking things over. We’ve come to that point in the crime story where the damage has grown so great that law enforcement starts getting the bulk of the face time.…
