“We Are the Flash”: Welcome to Metaphors!

‘The X-Files’ 11×03 Review: Platonic my arse

I’m going to start this review with a caveat, and I want to be really, really clear here. Just because you’re coming across a mostly positive review about a pretty decent episode of a show that changed my life, introduced…

Starz’s “Vida”: Latinx Writers and Queer Voices Taking Center Stage

Starz’s Vida is a Latinx writers/creators wet dream. There, I said it. No take backs. Hell, it’s a Latinx queer woman’s wet dream. And it’s the kind of content that we need on our screens today. Vida is a half-hour…

‘The Shannara Chronicles’ Isn’t Canceled, It Just Needs a New Home

‘The Flash’ 4×10 Review: ‘The Trial of the Flash’

'Supergirl' 3×10 Review: 'Legion of Superheroes'

It’s been six weeks; 42 days; 1,008 hours since Supergirl’s midseason finale, which found Reign victorious and Kara comatose. The only thing worse than a winter hiatus is a summer hiatus, which is five times longer and five times more…

Stop Making Excuses, It’s Still LGBT Erasure

Why is it that Hollywood doesn’t understand that it isn’t enough to include LGBT stories in the background? It’s like they don’t understand that we’re not an afterthought. We’re not just there to float around the straight male lead and…

‘Blindspot’ 3×09 Review: “Hot Burning Flames”

Blindspot is back! After the midseason finale, our favorite show returns with an episode that maintains the level of the previous ones. “Hot Burning Flames” has broken us into a thousand pieces with Jeller, but it has also given us…

‘The Blacklist’ 5×10 Review: ‘The Informant’

Take a deep breath and hold my hand, fans of Gillian Anderson’s portrayal as Media on Starz’s American Gods. Our goddess and queen will not be returning when American Gods returns for a second season. As if the news that she wasn’t returning…

‘The X-Files’ 11×02 Review: This is Better Than The Other Thing

Once Upon A Time, a long, long time ago, when I was a kid too young to be watching The X-Files and probably didn’t understand a thing of what was actually going on, I actually enjoyed mythology episodes. Of course,…

Marvel’s ‘Runaways’ 1×10 Review: Hostile

If you’re like me, Marvel’s Runaway’s season one finale entitled “Hostile” left you speechless. (Good thing this is a written review.) This episode was so much more than I was ready for. I feel like I just watched a whole…

‘The Brave’ 1×10 Review: Desperate Measures

“I will give you nothing.” Once again, The Brave has me redacting my previous statement of “Desperate Times” being the best episode to date because the Monday night’s mid-season premiere of “Desperate Measures” officially takes that title. The tenth episode…
