BEWARE: Spoilers below. Better than last week, but not as good as the premier. We’re still in that period where blanks are being filled in, and steps are being taken to push the story forward. Overall, the episode wasn’t bad because the archangels delivered us some serious sass. William meets with Gabriel at some truck…
Beware: Spoils ahead. Gah, Alex is such a butt in this episode. Dude, nobody wants to be “the Chosen One,” nobody. Nobody wakes up and says, “Wow, I would love to carry this huge burden and save all of mankind. I think it’d be really cool to have my life and the lives of the…
Define spoil. Yeah, yeah there might be a lot of those… Syfy’s new show, Dominion, is a television continuation of the 2010 film, Legion. I cannot stress this enough: if you haven’t seen it, go watch it (I’m sure it’s available, er, “online” somewhere. I’d throw up a list of sites, but I’m not that…
BEWARE: SPOILS. Every day since Saturday, I’ve woken up like this: “GAGDASKFJSGATRLJGNHJGSNFNGFLKBMMDNSJF ORPHAN BLACK IS ALMOST OVER!!” But there’s hope for tomorrow, everyone! On Syfy, Dominion has finally arrived. I’ve been waiting for this show to premier for months, and now that it’s here, it’s almost everything that I imagined. I say “almost” because the guys…
My top is always changing. These kinds of lists are hardest to do because, when attempting to squeeze the best of the best into ten numbers, or even forty or a hundred, you’re bound to leave something out. I watch so many movies, and it was tragically difficult to put them all into a list….
BEWARE: Spoilage here. There is none. There is no feminism in Metal Hurlant Chronicles. Female characters are reduced to being sexually exploited tropes with absolutely no substance or characterization that would enable them to contribute to the plot of an episode. As I’ve mentioned in previous MHC recaps, women are portrayed as either sex symbols,…
Felix Dawkins is the unofficial star of Orphan Black. This is not an easy task to achieve, as he shares the platform with a set of amazingly feisty and intelligent women. The task becomes more difficult still when realizing that Felix comes from a dwindling portion of characters that aren’t played by Tatiana Maslany. His…
BEWARE: I spoil. Whoever told you that nice guys finish last is a liar and they should be flogged. This week, Metal Hurlant Chronicles opens up its hour finale with an episode about a man who promptly announces that he’s having a bad day. Now, being seasoned MHC watchers, we know that nothing is…
BEWARE: I spoil. “Pledge of Anya” takes us to an ancient world, covered in canyons and deserts. A small group of people foresee an imbalance on Earth that will wreak havoc on future human civilizations. This “dragon,” as they call it, will be hidden among the humans, and it is their duty to send a…
BEWARE: I SPOIL. Everyone, let’s take a moment of silence for the hot mess that is the seventh episode, “The Loyal Khondor.” Done? Okay, I’m starting. Khondor! Damn—damn. It was that serious for you? Let me back up a bit. So, someone lost a war. King Targot (Marc…
Dear People who have not and should be watching Orphan Black, I have no idea where you’ve been, what planet you have traveled to, why you’ve just gotten cable or internet for the first time in your life yesterday, or why you like to be unhappy, but no matter the circumstance that this article finds…
BEWARE: I SPOIL. SPIKE IS BACK! Wow, that must be really annoying for James Marsters, but it’s the first thing that comes to mind when I see his face. This is his second episode in MHC, and the fifth episode premiering on the SyFy network. It’s entitled “Shelter Me.” He plays Mr. Davis, a man…
