When I first heard that there was going to be a series known as Space Force, with Steve Carell, I thought it was a rumor that too many people were passing on social media. Especially since Mr. Trump had actually started a real Space Force, so is truth stranger than fiction, or is fiction stranger than truth? Needless to say, Netflix now has a Space Force series, it not only … [Read more...] about Space Force Season 1 Review and Season 2 Release Date

10 Reasons that I am Disenchanted by Matt Groening’s Disenchantment
I feel bad criticizing Matt Groening's work, the man who gave us such wonderful shows like The Simpsons and Futurama really made the last two decades. I have a theory that eventually artists lose their creative streak, or at least go into some kind of downward slide. I mean, just compare Spielberg's Raiders of the Lost Ark with Ready Player One. The former is a game-changing … [Read more...] about 10 Reasons that I am Disenchanted by Matt Groening’s Disenchantment
Does Jessica Jones Season 2 Just Suck? (Spoilers Ahead)
So far, Marvel's Cinematic Universe (MCU) seems to be getting better, as they have been taking ideas that seem weak like Ant-Man or Black Panther and milking billions out of them. A few years ago, when Daredevil hit Netflix, it was proof that this more mature and darker branch of the MCU could be just as successful. Daredevil's Season 1 was a huge hit, and Jessica … [Read more...] about Does Jessica Jones Season 2 Just Suck? (Spoilers Ahead)

It lasted five years, but it was a gamble back then as TV audiences were not very committed to … [Read more...] about Final Space and the Difficulty of Science Fiction Epics

Why are Critics and Audiences Split Over Seth MacFarlane’s The Orville
Last Sunday night, FOX aired The Orville, a science-fiction comedy show created by the one-and-only Seth MacFarlane, much more famous for Family Guy and American Dad.

TiVo Bolt + Has more Tuners and More Memory
Okay, I have had a great time reviewing the TiVo Bolt, and now there is a TiVo Bolt +, or Plus. It has six tuners (the ability to record six shows at once) and three terabytes of recording capacity (up to 450 hours).

New Reality Show allows competitors to build their own Utopia
I'm not a big fan of reality shows, as you might tell from my review of Series 7: The Contenders. I just don't really see the appeal of them, and I actually can't stand watching confession cam after confession cam in a situation where people start acting like idiots. That seems to be what all reality shows boil down to: people doing stupid stuff. Fox is currently casting … [Read more...] about New Reality Show allows competitors to build their own Utopia
