‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×07 Roundtable: “Heartless”

That was a twist …wasn’t it? Maybe I’d been lulled into a false sense of security. Maybe I was just too used to the Evil Queen never getting what she wanted. Either way, Once Upon A Time, six seasons in,…

‘Pitch’ 1×07 Review: ‘San Francisco’

Somehow, Pitch keeps finding ways to surprise me. I was dreading the day Ginny’s nudes would resurface ever since the episode when we found out about them. I figured it would be a painful storyline, a PR nightmare, resulting in…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×06 Roundtable: “Dark Waters”

Family is what you make of it. Family is not just the people who share your blood, but the people you love, and who love you back. That was the message of an emotional episode of Once Upon A Time…

‘Pitch’ 1×05 Roundtable: Alfonzo Guzman-Chavez

Pitch returned last week after a brief hiatus, and didn’t skip a beat. With continued focus on its incredible characters and, if possible, even more emotional scenes than usual, this show continues to be one of our favourites. Join Fangirlish…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×04 Review: “Strange Case”

At its best, Once Upon A Time can take a familiar story, turn it on its head and teach us a lesson at the same time. At its best this show can intertwine the stories from the people we’ve known…

Game of Thrones 6×10 Roundtable ‘The Winds of Winter’

And that’s it …Game of Thrones season 6 has come to a close, and what an ending that was. What a season that was. It had everything, heartbreaking deaths, unexpected returns, expected returns, breakout characters, and, of course, the revelation…

Game of Thrones 6×08 Roundtable “No One”

We’re getting close to the end, people. And we’re both scared and excited. Though mostly scared. Vaguely nauseous even. Because Game of Thrones is known for going all out in the last two episodes, and there’s been plenty of happiness…

Game of Thrones 6×07 Roundtable “The Broken Man”

Well, that was sort of …anticlimactic? And slow. Two words that can’t usually be applied to Game of Thrones. But the end of the season is coming, so we’re pretty sure this is a one-off. From now on, Game of…

‘Shadowhunters’: Clary Fray Feels Muted And Understated

Clary Fray has never been the most popular character in the Mortal Instruments series. Most readers prefer the bookish, more relatable protagonist of the Infernal Devices trilogy, and struggle to connect with the fiery redhead that headlines this one. Clary…

Legends of Tomorrow Season 1 Finale Review: 'Legendary' [Full Circle]

While DC’s Legends of Tomorrow has often received more criticism than praise from me – and rightfully so – the final two episodes of the season have delivered in terms of emotional satisfaction that I really enjoyed. “Legendary” proved to…

The Myth of Fanservice

I contemplated starting this piece with a definition. We can’t talk of a subject we don’t understand, after all. I decided against it for one particular reason: we all think we know what fanservice is all about. Not only that,…

‘Once Upon A Time’ Review 5×18 “Ruby Slippers”

Well, color me surprised. And excited. I didn’t have high hopes for this hour. Not because I have anything against Ruby, Mulan or Dorothy in particular, but because after a few episodes of a whole lot of Rumbelle, Zelena and…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 5×16 Review “Our Decay”

Well, that was …not at all what I expected. Or maybe it’s just that I had such low expectations of this episode to begin with. When you don’t expect much, anything you get seems like a wonderful gift. And, trust…

‘Shadowhunters’ 1×12 Recap: ‘Malec’

Malec was, without a doubt, the most anticipated episode of Shadowhunters since the moment the episode title was revealed. When Magnus and Alec first met, I was blown away by the chemistry between the actors, and extremely excited to see…

'Supergirl' 1×16 Review: 'Falling'

While Supergirl has quietly been having a solid freshman season depicting the first female superhero with her own television show, it’s been far from perfect. But there have been times when this show has truly shined above the rest. And…
