Forgiveness Is A Choice We Define

I’d like you all to get on the galloping trope-horse with me for a second to talk about something that I think is the definition of poor writing. It’s not only poor writing, but it reinforces unhealthy behavior and outdated…

Arrow 5×18 Roundtable: 'Disbanded'

The most recent episode of Arrow was quite satisfying as it delivered an episode that reminded us of the Arrow we’ve been missing in “Disbanded.” Our Fangirlish writers Alyssa, Lizzie, Nora, Sarah, and Charles are breaking down the latest episode…

Arrow 5×18 Review: 'Disbanded'

I’m not going to sugarcoat it. Arrow hasn’t been great this season. It hasn’t even been good. For the longest time it felt like it was a lost puppy trying to find its way home. And it finally has. Following…

‘Legends of Tomorrow’ 2×16 Review: “Doomworld”

In TV, shows in their second seasons are always worried about the “sophomore slump”. For those wondering, that is the phrase used when a show has a subpar second season compared to its really good first season. It makes me…

Arrow 5×17 Roundtable: ‘Kapiushon’

Last Wednesday’s Arrow might’ve been heavy on the past with a slew of flashbacks, but it was all about the present and the future in “Kapiushon.” Our Fangirlish writers Alyssa, Lizzie, Nora, and Sarah are breaking down this week’s Arrow, which has…

“Once Upon A Time” 6×13 Roundtable ‘Ill-Boding Patterns’

So …Captain Swan is engaged! And Hook didn’t get a chance to confess his secrets. What a bunch of …drama. Though, seeing it all develop, it was hard to blame him. It was hard to blame her. It’s still possible…

Arrow 5×17 Review: ‘Kapiushon’

It feels damn good to say it, for the first time in a long time – Arrow was good. Like really good. Like impressive. Like I’m going to re-watch this episode to dissect even more than I’m about to do.…

Riverdale: Power to the Ladies

What’s going on in old Riverdale? Murder? Attempted suicides? Secret engagements? Teen pregnancies? Almost everything, to be honest.  This dark and gritty adaptation of old comic books has swept us all up with its gruesome story and we are enthralled.…

The Chastity Belt of Horror

Sex is a killer. No, not killer as I like to think in the fun, sweaty, panting, orgasm way, but a thing in which the next victim is chosen for the sacrifice of serial killers, psychopaths, and bad TV writers…

Arrow 5×15 Roundtable: ‘Fighting Fire With Fire’

Arrow continues to disappoint in its fifth season with the latest installment coming in “Fighting Fire With Fire,” where we learned Prometheus’ (not-shocking) identity, Thea was sent away, and Oliver became even more annoying than he ever has been. Our…

The Blacklist 4×13 Review: ‘Isabella Stone’

“Isabella Stone” promised to be an action packed episode. and it did not disappoint. I was worried that Isabella Stone would just be a throw away villain easily defeated by Red, but she actually lived up to the hype. If…

Legends of Tomorrow 2×11 Review: ‘Turncoat’

Legends of Tomorrow sends us back to 1776 this week and indirectly are able to save the world from losing “Hamilton: The Musical” forever. Oh and also the United States of America is saved as well but that’s besides the point.…

Tom Hiddleston Dishes on “Hiddleswift”

  Taylor Swifts relationships are under more scrutiny than anyone should have to endure. We don’t envy her. If it was a male celebrity, it wouldn’t be the same scrutiny. However, for Taylor – everything is under scrutiny. If we…

‘Timeless’ 1×12 Review: For You, A Thousand Times Over

This phrase from “The Kite Runner,” by Khaled Hosseini kept playing in my mind over and over again as I watched the episode. It’s not a romantic phrase, or at least, it’s not used in that context in the book…

Timeless 1×11 Review: ‘The World’s Columbian Exposition’

What we wouldn’t have given a month ago to have access to the Time Ship in order to travel forward a month and get our beloved Timeless back. There’s been a serious piece of my heart missing with Timeless on…

Arrow 5×09 Review: Unintended Consequences

Arrow writers, You have failed this audience. This season of Arrow has been disappointing and agitating to say the least. But silly me to have some hope heading into the mid-season finale that perhaps would jumpstart a better second half.…

Legends of Tomorrow 2×05 Roundtable: 'Compromised'

A new season of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow means a new season of roundtables where Fangirlish writers Alyssa, Lizzie, and Lyra discuss the hot topics from every Legends of Tomorrow episode. In Legends of Tomorrow‘s fifth episode of season 2,…

The Walking Dead 7×04 Review: Service & Negan Mind Games 101

Negan’s special brand of mind games continued in The Walking Dead‘s “Service.” And while the Saviors first visit to Alexandria didn’t go like I expected, aka him killing someone to teach them a lesson about obedience like scared little puppies, he did…

Pitch 1×06 Roundtable: ‘Wear It’

Here at Fangirlish, we are absolutely smitten with FOX’s new baseball drama Pitch. A hopeful, empowering story with phenomenal production value, lots of positive representation and an entire cast of relatable characters, it stole our hearts in episode one and still…

‘Pitch’ 1×06 Review: ‘Wear It’

We’re almost halfway through the first season of Pitch, and already Ginny Baker has gotten more development than some of the characters show with season-plus seasons (looking at you, Arrow). After spending five episodes placing obstacle after obstacle in Ginny’s…

Supernatural 12×04 Review: Mary’s Presence is Already Missed

Dean’s confusion, resentment, and heartache over the departure of Mary was felt all over, in Supernatural’s “American Nightmare.” While Sam wanted to investigate the family suspected of a wrongful death, Dean wanted to give them a pass. He was so…
