The Simpsons: Mathlete’s Feat Review

I ate a pie and it was delicious. Here is our review of The Simpsons season 26 episode 22. Set against the unlikeliest mine for jokes, math. The annual Springfield Elementary Mathlympics, where good seats are always available. Krusty the Clown comes on to tell meth jokes. The consummate professional doesnt need to prepare for appearances. A limo picks him up and drops him off and he reads about what he did later....

Veep: Storms and Pancakes Review

Selina Meyer is achin for bacon on the stump trail. Here is our review of Veep Season 4 episode 6. Veepis consistently brilliant, across the board. The acting, writing, timing, cuts are all inspired and seem completely casual and spontaneous. Storms and Pancakes doesnt have that one special scene. For a lot of shows that might seem like a kind of letdown. Fun Fact: Julia Louis-Dreyfus made her big screen debut as Jeanette Cooper in the 1986 horror flickTroll....

What films should be expanded into shared universes?

In fact, it may be one of the cinematic universes I propose later in this article. If thats the case, I apologise for my obsolescence. Right now, really there is only one of these things running and its running very, very well. With that more enthusiastic mindset engaged, like most multimedia conglomerate executives, Im now seeing potential everywhere. Its a shame because J.R.R. Pacific Rimis more than just a glorious massive alien monsters versus giant robots fight flick....

Louie: Sleepover Review

The latest Louie episode isn’t the best of the season, but it’s still damn good. Here is our review… has actually found a comfortable format for the show this season. Sleepover is mostly about Louie hosting a sleepover for his daughter Jane and a bunch of her friends. Whats awesome is how the episode gradually turns the little girls from an annoyance into an asset. Hes in jail and needs Louie to bail him out....

Fox’s Matt Dillon-led drama premiered last night. See if it’s worth your time… If youve seen the previews forWayward Pines, you know its a town where seriously strange things are afoot. For these reasons, and others,Wayward Pinesshouldnt be missed. (Fingers crossed for noVillage-esque, rug-out-from-under-us twist ending?) Without further ado, lets get to the show. Beverly (Juliette Lewis), a helpful bartender, allows Ethan to use her phone. Ethans call goes straight to the answering machine....

Agents of SHIELD Season 2 Finale Review: S.O.S.

The Agents of SHIELD season 2 finale had a lot going on. It might have had too much going on. Here’s Marc’s review. ThisAgents of SHIELDreview contains spoilers. Well, another season ofAgents of SHIELDhas come and gone and again we are left with a mixed bag. Now, the way the series has dealt with the Inhumans has been a little inconsistent. With teleporting dogs, goat legged warriors, and fish men, the Inhumans have always been aboutvariety....

Bates Motel: Unconscious Review

In which we think about the end of things and the very end of things. Theres a cord between our hearts, remember? Early on the episode broaches the idea of Norman getting professional mental help. Its one of the few programs where arguablyno onecould have a happy ending by the conclusion of it. Like Norma says to Sheriff Romero, Were all doomed in the end, right? It doesnt even feel like any of them evenend, but kind of just fade out instead....

Bitten: Rabbit Hole review

Bitten slows down on the information overload to give us some great character development. Read our review here! Those brands on their necks do more than just add a stylish air to their demeanor! Im kind of sad that Dr. Bauer is in the show for such a short amount of time. Its refreshing to see a characters outside the main group highlighted. It seems that were getting the extended character development that has been sorely lacking since the show premiered....

Community: Basic RV Repair and Palmistry Review

The latest episode of Community gets a little weird. Here our review of this week’s Community! But were all (most likely) fans here and for us this episode fares better. It makes the proceedings feel remote and isolated in a wayCommunitynever has before. I wonder what theyre saving up their budget for. This episode is a few minutes shorter than recent ones have been but it still drags in places....

Miracle Mile and the Fear in Late Cold War Movies

Readers, it was terrifying. Threadswas made at a time when those fears were once again at their height. Pacing up and down in the benighted street, Harry suddenly hears a phone ringing in a nearby booth. Forget everything you just heard, the voice tells Harry. And go back to sleep. Thus begins a bewildering, funny and frightening movie that barely lets up until the end credits. Most movies dont bother to introduce their ticking clock until third act....

Mad Max: Fury Road Review

The road warrior returns in mind-blowing fashion in the stunning Mad Max: Fury Road starring Tom Hardy. In other words, meet the new Max, same as the old Max at least in spirit. ), you just relax, accept it and marvel at the audacity and insanity of it. The result is one flame-throwing, double-necked, shredding electric guitar of a movie. Rating: 4.5 out of 5

Mad Men: The Milk and Honey Route review

Mad Men has its strongest outing of the season in its penultimate episode. Read our review here! There was no Diana, no McCann, and absolutely no wasted moments. And for Betty, that chapter may be closing sooner than expected. The decision to end Bettys life prematurely is a bold, but a wise one. As a character, shes always been emotionally detached, so who better to stare death down without flinching....
