Review: Prospects Are Good For Enjoying AN ASTROLOGICAL GUIDE FOR BROKEN HEARTS

Look, is An Astrological Guide for Broken Hearts going to win awards? Honestly, ever since Emily in Paris got nominated for an Emmy, I don’t even try to guess about what will and won’t win awards. But, my general point is that this is not prestige television. No, this is tasty-but-uncomplicated, rom-com comfort food where … Continue reading Review: Prospects Are Good For Enjoying AN ASTROLOGICAL GUIDE FOR BROKEN HEARTS

Title poster for LOVE HARD. Across the top there are red and white draw Christmas lights. Below that in small font is a tagline that reads "A romantic comedy about the lies we tell for love." Below that it says A NETFLIX FILM lovehard (with a small text typing box above the word hard) below that are the stars' names Nina Dobrev, Jimmy O. Yang, Darren Barnet. Nov. 5 Netflix. Below that there is a picture of Nina Dobrev wearing a white winter hat and holding a green phone in her hands. Her fingernails are painted red. On either side are hand drawn pictures of cell phones with a photo of Jimmy O. Yang in one and Darren Barnet in the other. Around her head are small red drawings of things like a present, a thumbs down, a heart, a paper airplane, a Christmas tree, and a thumbs up.

Picture trying to light fireworks that have been sitting … Continue reading YuleTube Review: LOVE HARD Has Some Charm, But So Much More Potential

Review: Read Why SEX EDUCATION S3 is Perhaps the Best Season Yet

Perhaps THE most important thing to know about season 3 of Sex Education? Otis's (Asa Butterfield) moustache doesn't stick around for more than an episode. And thank goodness for that; my spirit could not have borne more of that lifeless lip-caterpillar. Why do wispy moustaches often look so creepy? That's rhetorical. Only our guts know … Continue reading Review: Read Why SEX EDUCATION S3 is Perhaps the Best Season Yet

Review: THE UNUSUAL SUSPECTS Uses a Zany Premise to Talk About Universal Topics–And Succeeds Beautifully!!

I'm sorry. Why is this show not getting more exposure? The Unusual Suspects—an Australian caper-heist-dramedy about women—stayed on my Hulu homepage juuuust long enough for me to binge all four episodes, and then—POOF—it disappeared into the crowded back alleys of streaming content. Even reviews of the series are few and far between. But that’s why … Continue reading Review: THE UNUSUAL SUSPECTS Uses a Zany Premise to Talk About Universal Topics–And Succeeds Beautifully!!
