This week’s episode of Falling Skies gave us a ridiculously fast set up to an episode that ultimately went nowhere slowly. In the first five minutes we not only saw three different groups converge, but also Lexi build herself a nice little cocoon in the blink of an eye. The remaining 45 minutes was spent…
Day 2 of San Diego Comic Con is underway and we just got rewarded for our patience and vigilance with one of the most highly anticipated trailers of the entire convention: Season 5 of The Walking Dead. Prior to this reveal all we had was a brief 10 second clip and Steven Yeun (Glen’s) remarks…
“Did you see last night’s episode of Falling Dead? I mean Walking Skies. Wait, what?” When TNT first introduced Falling Skies back in 2011, my friends and I would joke about how similar it was to AMC’s The Walking Dead, which had begun the year before.

This week’s episode of Falling Skies entitled “Mind Wars” was full of misdirection, awkward moments and horrible realizations. Though despite these bad moments, we saw some decent character growth for some and story closures for others. So let’s analyze the good, the bad and the ones that made us want to drop to our knees…

This past Fourth of July Weekend, AMC celebrated their Dead, White and Blue Weekend by running every episode of The Walking Dead before culminating in a special summer edition of The Talking Dead. Showrunner Scott Gimple stopped by while Chris Hardwick and Aisha Tyler discussed the show and tried to pump Gimple for information. We…
This week’s Falling Skies dropped us ‘in media res’ – in the middle of the action – before flashing back 60 hours earlier to find out how this whole fiasco began. Between escape plans, new alliances forming and reunions, this episode was jammed packed with important stuff. On the other hand, there were various moments…
When we last left off with Once Upon a Time, we were shocked to find out that they were bringing Disney’s Frozen to the show barely half a year after it had been released in theaters. If you were worried that this was only for rating and wouldn’t remain true to the hit film, then…
Named after the type of British fiction popular in the 19th century, Penny Dreadful has quickly become Showtime’s latest hit. Much like its namesake, this show is full of vivid and shocking moments that both repulse and attract viewers. So whether you’re a critic, drama lover or just a hardcore fan of this lurid genre,…
