Sigh.
For all that Riverdale gets right – and make no mistake, I think most of the front half of their second season has been strong – it’s still got it’s problems. Just a shame it had to thrust them up front and centre for their midseason finale.
Vikings is setting itself up for a stonker of a fifth season. I have to admit it – I’ve been so wary of committing to the belief that the show is actually back on track, but this episode, Homeland, proved that Vikings still has a firm grip on so many of the things that make it great, while at the same time striking out into some enticing new territory. And I like it. Well, most of it, but we’ll get to that.
The Disaster Artist is too invested in The Room for it’s own good.
Debating the merits (and lack thereof) of The Shining!
And we’re back! Yep, Vikings is broadcast on the same night as Riverdale so it’s taking pride of place for the time being (since I’m not the only one reviewing it in our house) and Riverdale recaps are going to be shifting to Friday instead (and hey, in case you want something to fill the gap between recaps, I published a super fun, meta-commentary lesbian romance earlier this week!). And, well, frankly I’m glad to have had the extra day to give this episode some thought because it was…a lot.
And we’re back! Since the last set of Vikings recaps, I published two books as well as launching a film criticism site. Without further ego, let’s get to the recap!
What does a post-Ragnar world look like for Vikings? It’s a question I’ve been asking since his death three-quarters of the way into last season, and one that the show hasn’t really offered a definitive answer to until the double-header that opens it’s latest season.
Mark Ruffalo is terrible as Bruce Banner don’t @ me
Whee! Happy Tuesday, one and all – and if you need something to warm you up in these cold-ass winter months, I have just the thing for you.
It’s that time of the month again – no, not that one, where I manifest evil powers because I’m bleeding out my vag. It’s time for another Carrie recap! We left off last time with Sue setting up for the prom with her friends and discussing the fact that she encouraged her boyfriend, Tommy, to take Carrie to the prom with him.
