HERE WE GO, THE SEASON 2 FINALE. As you might expect, things get a little crazy. Prepare yourself for the longest recap ever. This show has so much going on that I can’t even get it all into my brain at once. This episode raises many new questions and gives us answers to questions we hadn’t asked yet. If that sounds confusing, good, because it is. Spoilers ahead! Full Episode Gallery Full Episode Recap and Analysis Flash Forward: Grant Reads His Confession THE EPISODE...

THIS INSTANTLY ACCLAIMED NETFLIX SERIES begins with a quote from Albert Einstein: “The distinction between the past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.” So it’s no spoiler to say that director Baran bo Odar (who also writes the series with co-creator Jantje Friese) will be messing with the traditional perception of time. So even in this first episode, it’s going to get messy. But it’s worth it! Spoilers ahead! Full episode gallery Full episode recap ...

THIS EPISODE PICKS UP RIGHT WHERE THE LAST ONE LEFT OFF, giving us more backstory on Vincent, and, as you can tell from the title, Simon. Last episode was a bit of an information overload. We learned a lot about Vincent through flashbacks made possible by Marcy’s recovered memories. This episode features memories from another character which help to put a few more pieces of information together. I don’t want to say more here, so suffice to say that Vincent features prominently in...

THIS IS PROBABLY THE MOST DISTURBING EPISODE OF TRAVELERS YET, but, hot on the heels of last week’s episode, it proved to be another one of my favorites. The cast and crew are on a roll, and this episode we get to see MacKenzie Porter convincingly play several different versions of Marcy without breaking a sweat. This episode gets into some Vincent stuff that’s too complicated to even introduce. Read on to share in my confusion. Spoilers ahead! Full Episode Gallery Full Episode...

 THIS WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE EPISODES OF TRAVELERS, but it’s also pretty unpleasant. Last episode, one of the key agents of the Faction was destroyed, the quantum frame was finally dealt with, and we got to meet the Director, in… persons. With all that taken care of, you might think the Team is on an uptrend. Well, sometimes it seems that the Team loses as much as they win. Spoilers ahead!

| IMAGE FROM STARWARS.COM | WHEN I SAW RIAN JOHNSON WAS DIRECTING STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI (2017), I knew we were in for something different. Well, that’s what we got. About the Acting The acting in this film was solid. One of the few new faces to the main cast was Kelly Marie Tran playing Rose Tico, who I can’t say anything about without giving something away. Suffice to say, she was unexpected, and did well in her role. The actors introduced in The Force Awakens (2015),...

 MR. ROBOT CREATOR SAM ESMAIL HAS CONFIRMED that Mr. Robot has been renewed for a fourth season by USA Network. This news comes hours before the Season 3 finale, and thank goodness. There’s no way all of our questions will be answered by the final episode of Season 3, so I’m happy to know that I will have the security blanket of knowing there’s more to come during the inevitable distress I’ll be feeling after watching it. Calm down everyone. #MrRobot season_4.0...

THE PUNISHER MUST BE PRETTY FAMILIAR WITH THE LATIN SAYING, “REMEMBER YOU WILL DIE.” He’s wanted death for the whole season and before. Ever since he woke up after his family was killed, he’s been kind of a ghost. He doesn’t take the saying the way it’s meant, though. It’s supposed to tell you to live life while you still have it. Until the last episode, The Punisher has had a deathwish all through this season. In the last episode, he finally decided he wanted to...
