The Best and Worst TV Shows of 2025: A Year of Peak Prestige and Painful Misses
If 2025 proved anything, it’s that television remains wildly unpredictable. For every prestige drama that dominated group chats and awards predictions, there was another series that launched with hype, burned through goodwill and quietly disappeared from the cultural conversation. Streaming platforms kept flooding the zone, legacy networks fought to stay relevant, and viewers were left sorting the gems from the genuine disasters. This year delivered some of the best TV shows

Before the Ashfords, There Were the Wards — GH’s Original Black Legacy Family
As a Black woman and a longtime soap viewer, I take joy in every step forward we’ve made in on-screen representation. Daytime drama has not always been a welcoming space for Black characters but the landscape is changing slowly, steadily and meaningfully. We now see more Black actors in front-burner storylines, more multidimensional characters and projects like Beyond the Gates showing that Black-led soap storytelling is not only possible but powerful. That’s why Donnell Tur

Why Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein Is the Most Romantic Monster Movie Ever Made
At its core, Frankenstein is a deeply romantic film—though the romance it explores is often tainted by, if not rooted in, toxicity, trauma, and cycles of abuse. Across its two-hour-and-twenty-nine-minute runtime, nearly every dynamic is poisoned by ambition, cruelty, or generational damage: from Victor and Herr Harlander’s scientific avarice to three generations of Frankensteins caught in a repeating loop of emotional and physical trauma to the Creature and Elizabeth, two im

Hola mi gente!
