Jerry Seinfeld: 23 Hours To Kill (2020) – TV Review

Jerry Seinfeld is one of the most famous and successful comedians on the modern era, and he returns to the stand up stage here for a Netflix special. One of Netflix’s most underrated and key aspects is the wide variety of stand up specials, from both then biggest stars in the world, and upcoming stars, …

50 States of Fright (2020) – TV Review

Sam Raimi made his name in the 80/90s as a new kid on the block with exciting horror projects, before conquering the blockbuster genre in the 21st Century, but now he is back, on streaming service Quibi, with a horror anthology series. I like the general idea of the series, but the show never clicked …

Hollywood (2020) – TV Review

I am a huge fan of entertainment about classic Hollywood, and I have also enjoyed some of Ryan Murphy’s work (American Crime Story, Feud, some seasons of American Horror Story) so I was genuinely looking forward to this show. What a disappointment. It is such a lazily written and almost dangerous piece of revisionist history. …

Veep Season 5 (2016) – TV Review

Losing Armando Iannucci as showrunner is enough to send any show off the rails, but instead, this great show just continues to even higher heights. The season is unpredictable, game changing, and completely hilarious. All of the characters get great moments throughout, and the dialogue continues to be the funniest and most outrageous on TV. …

Westworld Season 3: The New World (2020) – TV Review

Westworld is a strange beast of a show. When it first launched, it was heralded as HBOs new Game of Thrones but it was quickly apparent that despite its large budget and scale, this was a very different sort of show. It is packed full of mystery, plot twists, and ‘intellectual’ examinations of the world. …

The Simpsons Season 4 (1992) – TV Review

The Simpsons Season 4 is an incredibly confident and well rounded season of comedy, that is willing to take risks and explore stories it previously wouldn’t have been able to. While I don’t think it is necessarily the shows best season, overall it is the perfect example of the groundbreaking and all encompassing appeal that …

Killing Eve Season 3 – Still Got It (Reaction)

Following last week’s blockbuster episode, season 3 continued to take big risks, this time changing the structure and framing the episode like a classic Tarantino film, following individual characters and watching them eventually overlap, and it works to great success. The story continues to progress nicely and all the characters feel like the are being …

Normal People (2020) – TV Review

Ever since the BBC released this series, a week ago today, there has been a lot of talk and hype about the show. Often this is a bandwagon thing, but with this show, it is thoroughly deserved. It is a brutally emotional, entirely convincing, strikingly romantic, and stunningly acted look at love and growing up. …

Dummy (2020) – TV Review

On the face of it, a show where our lead forms a friendship with her boyfriend’s sex doll, based on the true life relationship of Cody Heller and Dan Harmon (writer of Rick and Morty), sounds completely bonkers. In reality, it still absolutely is. However, as the show goes on, you start to accept the …

Friday Night Dinner Season 6 (2020) – TV Review

This is one of those shows that you either like or you don’t. It has a very particular style of humour, a family related farce. I personally really enjoy it. While this season was certainly up and down, probably more so than any of the previous seasons, it was nice to be able to switch …
