The Flash Episode 5.11 was a lesson in the complex combination of fear and rage. Orlin Dwyer/Cicada (Chris Klein) has been laying low since Team Flash discovered his identity and he is mad as hell about not being able to visit Grace in the hospital since CCPD has her under observation. It seems that he has …
I spent the past two weeks watching the first season of Marvel’s The Punisher for the first time prior to watching Netflix‘s brand new season, which launched on January 18. The first season started off slowly but quickly ramped up on the bloodshed, secrecy, and government shenanigans in a way that grabbed us by the eyeballs and forced …
Despite its title, “The Flash & The Furious,” The Flash Episode 5.10 seemed to be lacking in speed and fury. Maybe it’s because Barry was locked up in the pipeline for most of the episode, or maybe it was because we had a team-up of a new villain with a reluctant one, but the meandering storyline …

2018 has been a tough year. Not only are we dealing with a divided nation polarized by politics and demagoguery, we have sustained losses that have left us reeling. As always, I’ve turned to my favorite network television shows as an escape from the daily bombardment of bad feelings I get from trying to read …

The final installment of the Arrowverse Crossover Event, Elseworlds, is strong from start to finish. Part 2 ended with Dr. Deegan (Jeremy Davies) creating a new reality with the Book of Destiny that finds Barry and Oliver as the Trigger Twins running from the law and from a black-clad Superman. Unfortunately, this Superman is not …
The second night of the Arrowverse Crossover Event plays like an early Christmas present for DC fans. No lie, I was totally fangirling over Elseworlds Part 2. While technically an episode of Arrow, it was the trip to Gotham that had me squeeing over what is now my favorite crossover episode of all time. If …
DC fans rejoice – it’s Crossover Season over at the Arrowverse! This year’s three-part crossover, aptly titled Elseworlds, began on Sunday night with The Flash and will continue through Monday and Tuesday with Arrow and Supergirl. Elseworlds Part 1 is a great character study of Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) and Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell), and not surprisingly of …
The Good Place was just renewed by NBC for a fourth season and I couldn’t be happier. The show is smart, tackles philosophy and the concept of goodness in a way that makes me laugh every week, has a podcast that is just as entertaining as the show itself, and is exactly the right length …
The Flash marks its 100th episode with a journey through its past If we’ve learned nothing else from watching five seasons of The Flash, it’s that time travel is tricky. Barry knows it, Nora should know it; yet in the ongoing battle to defeat Cicada, they are willing to risk altering the future by traveling …
