I don’t have that much to say about StuGo. Some cartoons are made with an adult audience as possible viewers, weaving in more intense plots for fandoms to form. You know them by name, if not by experience. Avatar: The Last Airbender. The Owl House. Gravity Falls. This show is not that, at least not within the first three episodes.

Vampires have a lot of classic weaknesses. Sunlight. Garlic. Stakes. They are certainly dangerous monsters, but you can defeat them if you have the right tools.
But you better make sure you have those tools.
Redacted is an audio fiction podcast that takes a very well-worn concept and adds just enough twists on the formula to make it interesting again.
Ladies, gentlemen, nonbinary people, it’s time to introduce “The Loophole Man.”
He’s a man with a special power. A man you don’t want to meet. His origins are shrouded in mystery, but you can likely guess what kind of man he once was.

What would you do if a grasshopper came to your door?
That’s the absurd question at the heart of this surreal short story from Brandon Scott.
Comparing the first three episodes of Murderbot to All Systems Red is a game of pros and cons. As a “fan” of the book series, I was obviously waiting for certain scenes and anticipating how well someone could play SecUnit, but the actual viewing experience was me going “that was good” followed swiftly by disappointment—and on and on it went.
We return to our silly story.
We return now to Charles.
It’s been many, many years since we last saw him. He’s changed a lot. Learned a lot. But his hatred for the Earth’s closest celestial body has not diminished in the slightest.
This is a silly story. There’s no way around that. It is a sci-fi tale, set in the far future, but it’s also pure comedy.
Do you ever wonder what aliens use to communicate with each other?
