NOTE: REVIEW CONTAINS POSSIBLE SPOILERS I have always had a special place in my heart for the mechanics and minutiae of character development. The fact that Hannibal allocates plenty of time for its cast to interact, philosophize and simply exist, has always been a huge draw for me. Not everyone is the same way, some […]

HANNIBAL Season 3, Episode 2: “Primavera” Review
NOTE: REVIEW CONTAINS POSSIBLE SPOILERS Hooray! Everyone’s favorite misanthrope with super powered empathy is finally back! Hugh Dancy’s soulful, underrated performance continues to be enduringly sympathetic as he plays the character of Will Graham like a man visibly struggling beneath an insurmountable weight, tugging at the viewer’s heart with every guarded movement and rueful quip. […]

Lost Signals: Invisible Man (2000)
In 2000, Syfy (then known as Sci Fi Channel) was undergoing a transition in programming that included the introduction of “original programming.” Among these new shows was Invisible Man, a heist show that mixed classic HG Welles science fiction with a modern comedy-drama.

HANNIBAL Season 3, Episode 1: “Antipasto” Review
Note: REVIEW CONTAINS POSSIBLE SPOILERS As a connoisseur of all things suspenseful and gory, I was utterly “devoured” when NBC’s Hannibal first aired in 2013. And I’m sorry Anthony Hopkins, your performance will always be a classic, but Mads Mikkelsen’s beguiling portrayal of Hannibal Lecter is now my favorite representation of the character. Hands down.

Sadly, most of these TV series have faded into obscurity… I mean, not every show can have the track record of […]

DC Comics and The CW Make Room for More Female Superhero Shows
by Rondal 0 Comments
Despite the inclusion on Black Widow in Avengers, female superheroes are woefully under-represented by the big two (Marvel, DC Comics) in television and film. That’s all about to change in 2015, as Marvel’s got Agent Carter up-and-running, gears up to release Jessica Jones on Netflix and DC gets ready to premiere not one, but two […]
