Continue ReadingEvery serialized TV show has filler episodes. Some are better than others. Unfortunately, SCAR TISSUE is not only one of the worst FROM episodes but one of the worst TV episodes I’ve seen in recent memory. …
Continue ReadingLast week, I gave FROM the benefit of the doubt and upgraded its filler status with a positive review, hoping this week’s would be a big reveal. Sadly, I was caught in the show’s revolving “mouse trap,” as E3 failed to live up to any of the hype from E2.

Continue ReadingTIME BANDITS continues to be a show that does not move the plot forward in a timely manner. The latest two-episode batch is a mixed bag. E5 GEORGIAN 🤮 Episode five is the worst yet. Even with Cassanova to swoon over, this dull edition has nothing to love. I didn’t laugh at all; the only thing I was thankful for was the shorter episode run time. E6 MANSA MUSA 😊 Meanwhile, episode six is on par with the rest of…
