I'd like to start this off by formally apologizing to all my neighbors and my family because I've had three versions of this song circulating on replay for about three months now. Actually, never mind, I'm not sorry. You're all welcome. You'd think I'd be sick of it by now, you'd think maybe after a... Continue Reading →
Bridgerton has done an incredible job of paving the road for future romance adaptations and reevaluating the importance of both inclusivity and happy endings. Romance is not and should have never been a taboo where entertainment media is concerned. Fangirls who ship, read fan fiction, create art, fan videos aren’t doing anything wrong—they’re celebrating love.... Continue Reading →
Cr. Attila Szvacsek/Netflix © 2021 “No Mourners” concludes Shadow and Bone’s first season almost as we’d expect it, a little rushed in its climax, but it gives us incredible moments of character development, so you’ll hear no complaints from me. Choice is a predominant, ongoing theme throughout the course of this season, and the finale reiterates its... Continue Reading →

COURTESY OF NETFLIX © 2021COURTESY OF NETFLIX © 2021 “The Heart is an Arrow” and humanity is so often complex in the same way that it is striking. Shadow and Bone’s sixth episode gives us reunions and answers—it leaves us with questions and a lot of moments of exceptional character development. The show is great in the... Continue Reading →
Of all the confrontations that fans of Shadow and Bone had been waiting for, this was one of them, and though a shorter scene than a lot of others, what's most surprising is how intricately it set apart two men in power.

COURTESY OF NETFLIX © 2021 “Show Me Who You Are” is one explosive, nuanced title for the amount of stuff that erupts in this episode and just how much we start to see through these characters along with their relationships. And it showed viewers exactly who these people are without telling us too much. (Which... Continue Reading →
