‘Game of Thrones’ 8×06 Roundtable: “The Iron Throne”
This is it. “The Iron Throne” is the end of an era, for better or worse. We’re done with the weekly Game of Thrones discussions, and these characters, what they are, and what they can be, are back in GRRM’s…
‘Whiskey Cavalier’ 1×13 Review: “I’ll Be Missing You”
Parting is such sweet sorrow. Especially when I’m forced to part with a show like Whiskey Cavalier, one that in “Czech Mate,” proved why it deserved not just another season, but many, many more. As I wrote earlier, though, network…
‘Whiskey Cavalier’ Proves Network TV Isn’t Yet Ready to Try New Things

‘Game of Thrones’ 8×05 Review: The Path Of Least Resistance
Ironic that I keep thinking of this phrase, one that I heard often in my childhood. Ironic because “The Bells” aired on Mother’s Day, and this was my mom’s phrase anytime we took the easy way out, which I will admit,…
‘Game of Thrones’ 8×04 Roundtable: “The Last of the Starks”
We’re just two episodes away from the end of Game of Thrones, and after what had been a superb season 8 so far, “The Last of the Starks” was just a disappointing episode all around, one that seems to be…
