Voltron: Legendary Defender Season 7 (Netflix)

In the midst of all the controversy about missing the mark on Shiro’s past, I have yet to find an article about Season 7’s thirteen installment run that focuses on what is one of the most prevalent themes in the episode arc: family. As the story developed over the last 65 episodes it is very […]

The Wonderland Murders (Investigation Discovery)

Did you know that the Pacific Northwest is notorious for breeding serial killers? One only needs to mention the Green River Killer who operated in the suburbs of Seattle, WA to realize how easy it is to dispose of bodies in the beautiful lush wilderness. That is one of the downsides of living in such […]

Voltron: Legendary Defender Season 6

As a lifelong fan of Voltron, I was excited about the reimagining of the series Dreamworks launched with Netflix. What I wasn’t expecting was a coherent, cohesive, spellbinding journey into the human condition that expands the lore of the robeast fighting mech team. Romance, long lost family, and even reincarnation are a few of the […]

LA to Vegas (Fox)

The first time I saw this show it reminded me of Airline, the TV reality series from A&E about Southwest Airlines, but instead of the drama of unruly passengers, Jackpot Airlines handles the ups and downs of air travel by mailing it in. A parody of an industry that relies on customer service but really […]

Queen Elizabeth II, Regina, is still kicking strongly, and as of 2017, she was not only an icon of the British royalty but embodied it. Since I was a little girl, the royal family has been instrumental in piquing my interest in the history and modernization of the institution. If Kings and Queens were still […]

Genius (NatGeo)

Albert Einstein was one of the greatest minds in physics. His unruly hair and grand ideas about the cosmos have changed the way we think about gravity, time and space. The eccentric character he possessed made him an icon in Switzerland, Germany and beyond, as he dared to challenge the Reich twice! Even after his […]

My First Role Model: She-Ra, Princess of Power

My mom can attest to the fact that I had every possible item of the She-Ra collection. She was my favorite Princess, right before Allura and after Aurora, aka Sleeping Beauty. My devotion to her and to He-Man was so spectacular and all consuming that to this day, I win trivia games because I know […]

Is Watching Supergirl (TV Show) Worth It?

First, let me start by saying that no one in my inner circle has agreed that the show is a must see. Compared to The Flash and Arrow, Supergirl is a difficult storyline to tell, especially since it requires a whole piece of the DC Universe that most mortals aren’t aware exisits. Even though Supergirl […]
