‘The Baker and The Beauty’ 1×02: “Ruin Me”

First, I will apologize that in last weeks review, I didn’t look and apparently spelled Noa’s name wrong. I should have known – being a celebrity – that her name would be spelled differently and all eccentric. But I didn’t…

Belissa Escobedo Talks Natalie and Why You Should Give ‘The Baker and the Beauty’ a Chance

We’ve only seen one episode of The Baker and The Beauty – the new rom-com style TV show that’s making our Monday quarantine nights sweeter, but we pride ourselves on being TV connoisseurs, so that’s enough for us to tell…

‘The Baker & The Beauty’ 1×01: “Pilot”

Picking a new show is not something that is easy for me. I feel as though everything is going to let me down. But the thing about The Baker and The Beauty is there are many reasons that I wanted…

23 Times We Shipped Captain Swan

It’s been a while, but good ships never really disappear from the collective consciousness. And it’s February, the month of love, so we thought we’d go back and examine some of our favorite ships, and why we shipped them. Bring…

‘Once Upon A Time’: The Ending We Deserve

As you all know, Once Upon A Time is ending this season. Now, I’m of the opinion it should have ended last season, and I haven’t exactly kept up with what’s happened in Season 7 – but I do know…

Once Upon A Time’s Problem with Consent

Consent: the voluntary agreement of the complainant to engage in the sexual activity in question. Conduct short of a voluntary agreement to engage in sexual activity does not constitute consent as a matter of law. This has been on my mind for a long…

‘Once Upon A Time’: Is This a Fitting End for Emma?

Once Upon A Time bid farewell to Emma Swan in last night’s episode, a Hook-centric hour titled “A Pirate’s Life.” The show runners had promised a happy ending for our former leading lady, and fans had been eagerly anticipating what…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 7×01 “Hyperion Heights” Preview

It’s like I can’t stay away. What’s that quote? Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in? That’s kinda what this is, except I don’t feel I’m in again – I just succumbed to my curiosity…

Five Things We Want From ‘Once Upon A Time’ Season 7

I’m going to start this with a caveat – I’ve been very vocal about the fact that, for me, Once Upon A Time should have ended with season 6. Storytelling wise, in my opinion, it was time. Now, I don’t…

Still Star-Crossed 1×07 Review: Some Shall Be Pardoned, and Some Punished

Since this is my last Still Star-Crossed review (I’m side-eyeing you, ABC, I really am), forgive me if I get a bit …maudlin. Contemplative, even. I’ve never pretended this show was a masterpiece, or even that it was attempting to…

70 Quick Thoughts from ‘Still Star-Crossed’ 1×06: Hell is Empty and All the Devils Are Here

‘Hell is Empty and All the Devils are Here’ aired last night, and we same some thoughts. Weird thoughts. Not as much to say as we normally do, but well …we still have things to say. We kinda always do.…

‘Still Star Crossed’ 1×05 Review: Partners (not in crime)

Considering that we already know this show is likely cancelled, you’d think that the experience of watching it would be somewhat depressing, or that there’d be this overwhelming feeling of defeat hanging around every second, every tweet, and every word…

Five Things We Learned About ‘Once Upon A Time’ Season 7 at D23

Well, Once Upon A Time season 7 is not so much of a mystery anymore. The question is – do you like what you’re hearing? And that seems to be a very personal answer for a lot of fans. But,…

‘Still Star-Crossed’ 1×04 Review: Still Here for the Rosvolio

It’s been a couple of weeks. We’ve changed time-slots. ABC has pretty much thrown the towel on this show, which is not exactly surprising, but it is disappointing. Look, I’m not going to pretend Still Star-Crossed was groundbreaking television plot-wise…

‘Once Upon A Time’ Will Be at San Diego Comic Con

Well, that’s a bit of a surprise. Once Upon A Time is, indeed, coming to San Diego Comic Con. Not a surprise because of the kind of show it is, or the network, or because the show had never been…

‘Once Upon a Time’ Season 7 Adds Five New Faces

It’s a ladies world in Once Upon A Time Season 7. With most of the original cast departing the show – some by their own decision, some not so much, the ABC show had to repopulate before Season 7.  And…

The ‘Once Upon A Time’ Season 6 DVD/Blu Ray Has a Release Date

We have a release date! That’s right, the Season 6 DVD/Blue Ray for Once Upon A Time Season 6 will finally be released …on August 15th. The news was confirmed thanks to Target, who very kindly put the item up…

Still Star-Crossed 1×03 Review: All the World’s a Stage

After a week break where I honestly missed this show more than I expected us, our favorite trope-filled hour of escapism is back, and this time, the plot picks up, we get way less of Escalus and his pining for…

‘Once Upon A Time’ Season 6 Review: A Happy Beginning (Ending) Now is Ours

Once Upon A Time started season six with questions and it ended with answers. In fact, season 6 ended with what one might consider all the answers. All the happy endings – or, at least, the ones the show could…

Still Star-Crossed 1×02 Review: We don’t like you, Escalus. Even if you make sense.

The first episode of Still Star-Crossed was a trope covered in tropey syrup and topped with a very tropey cherry. The second episode was …a little more of the same, if slightly less entertaining. Yes, the episode was needed. The…
