To claim the justice system may be flawed is not totally out of the question, and Apple TV+’s new drama, Black Bird, estimates that people slip through the cracks constantly. Back in the 90s, contamination of evidence and false imprisonment ran rampant, even as the FBI and crime-solving was practically in its infancy. How exactly … Continue reading TV Review: Black Bird
TV Review: Flowers in the Attic: The Origin
V.C. Andrews is an absolutely iconic figure in literature whether one loves her or hates her. As such, her body of work pretty much speaks for itself. Ask any given person about their knowledge of Andrews, and I have no doubt in my mind that the majority would name Flowers in the Attic as her … Continue reading TV Review: Flowers in the Attic: The Origin
Tribeca Film Festival 2022 Wrap-Up
Last year was our first time covering Tribeca as press, albeit virtually due to the imminent danger of the pandemic. This year, we were grateful to able to attend in person, as it is the primary festival that we can easily attend given its location in our own backyard. We had the opportunity to cover … Continue reading Tribeca Film Festival 2022 Wrap-Up
Tribeca 2022: The Bear
It may only have been a couple years since Showtime’s Shameless ended, but I have lately been deeply missing Jeremy Allen White’s Lip on my screen. As a fan, my prayers were answered—I followed White’s presence to another network entirely. While his character in FX’s new restaurant dramedy The Bear is completely different from Lip, … Continue reading Tribeca 2022: The Bear
TV Review: Queer As Folk
As we continue to live in a world of endless reboots and sequels, we enter the doors of Babylon into a newer, darker, sharper version of Queer as Folk. Led by a stunning and diverse ensemble cast comprised of queer talent with an equal amount of LGBT crew working behind the scenes, from strictly a … Continue reading TV Review: Queer As Folk
TV Review: Love, Victor – Season 3
When Love, Simon hit theaters back in 2018, it was groundbreaking for being a mainstream queer rom-com in wide release. Love, Victor didn’t make quite the same splash when it came to Hulu in 2020, but it carried many of the same vibes as Becky Albertalli’s signature Creekwood universe. Leading man Michael Cimino killed it … Continue reading TV Review: Love, Victor – Season 3
TV Review: Stranger Things 4, Volume 1
I remain in awe of the massive, ever-growing fanbase for Netflix’s Stranger Things—from a sleeper hit in 2016 to emerging as one of the streamer’s finest offerings, this a horror/sci-fi success story unlike any other. The third season was my favorite so far, evolving into a campier, large-scale 80s horror extravaganza. Thanks to the worldwide … Continue reading TV Review: Stranger Things 4, Volume 1
Pit Stop: Stranger Things: The Experience New York
It's crazy to think just how big a juggernaut that Netflix's excellent horror series, Stranger Things, has become. I remember shortly after the first season debuted, when it was so new and beloved that they were yet to even produce merchandise. I ordered a custom-made Stranger Things tee online at the time and wore it … Continue reading Pit Stop: Stranger Things: The Experience New York
TV Review: Clark
Putting aside my own personal curiosities about the origins of the term “Stockholm syndrome,” Netflix’s new Swedish dramedy series, Clark, caught my attention primarily for one reason only: Bill Skarsgård. I still remember when Skarsgård originally really wowed me, which also happened to be the first time I ever saw him in anything. One of … Continue reading TV Review: Clark
TV Review: Spring Awakening: Those You’ve Known
Back in the summer of 2008 just before graduating high school, one of my closest friends suggested we go to an amazing Broadway show together from which she had heard rave reviews. Knowing little about said show before actually taking our seats at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre, Spring Awakening completely blew me away (and I … Continue reading TV Review: Spring Awakening: Those You’ve Known
