Fatal Attraction Series Review: A Watered-Down Reimagining

by  Larry Fried  |  April 25, 2023

Quasi Review: A Harmless Silly Satire

by  Manuel São Bento  |  April 24, 2023

The Mandalorian Season 3 Review: The MCU-fication of Star Wars

by  Akash Singh  |  April 22, 2023

Totally Completely Fine Review: A New Dark Comedy, Emphasis On The Dark

by  Ethan Dayton  |  April 20, 2023

While uneven at times, the new series successfully continues a common theme of 2023 TV - mental health awareness. 

Dead Ringers Review: Rachel Weisz Stuns, It’s Everything Else That Doesn’t

by  Mariana Delgado  |  April 17, 2023
