Recap: DMV Season 1 Episode 8 Turns Holiday Sweaters Into Workplace Warfare
Holiday cheer hasn’t officially hit DMV yet, but Episode 8, “Splash Mountain,” works as the chaotic prelude. The show leans into its signature mix of workplace pettiness, accidental emotional breakthroughs and deadpan absurdity. This time sparked by something as harmless (and hideous) as matching holiday sweaters. It’s a deceptively silly setup that ends up delivering one of the most honest, surprisingly heartfelt episodes of the season. The premise kicks off when Barb assem

Matlock Season 2 Episode 7 Review: Olympia’s Past Collides With the Case of the Week
Matlock is FINALLY back this week and I couldn’t be more excited to see this show returning to our screens this week. This week’s episode was pretty solid and felt like it flew by. This episode felt like a builder in Olympia’s character and backstory progression, and we see Matty’s issues in her personal life coming to a head this week. Even though Olympia is one of the major players in this show, I still feel like there is always more to learn about a character’s past outsid

The teachers and Ava try to conceal their true feelings until Janine asks if there’s a newer photo. Everyone’s relief is clear when Ba

Spartacus: House of Ashur Review – Ashur Rises, Achillia Shines in STARZ’s Bloody New Spinoff
Twelve years after Spartacus ended, creator Steven S. DeKnight reopens the arena with a thrilling twist: what if Ashur lived? As a longtime Spartacus fan, I was among the millions glued to the screen when the series first aired. The loss of our original lead, Andy Whitfield, hit hard but when Liam McIntyre stepped into the role, the show didn’t miss a beat. Even when Lesley-Ann Brandt’s Naevia was replaced by Cynthia Addai-Robinson, the writing, emotion, and electrifying fig

Landman Season 2, Episode 3 Review: Tommy Norris Faces His Toughest Balancing Act Yet
As a Texas Landman, Tommy Norris seems to do very little in the way of negotiating traditional land leases with legal landowners or researching local mineral rights. Never have we ever seen him spend time down at the old courthouse canvassing historical documents and ownership records to file quick claim deeds. No small tasks, mind you, but certainly more akin to what you might find on any given day in this line of work. In fact, the titular character of the popular Paramount

Stranger Things Season 5 Volume 1 Review: Hawkins Gets Dark, And We’re Here for It
Hawkins is collapsing, and not in that “aww, I remember that when I was a kid” way we fell in love with back in the ’80s (or so I've heard, I'm a 90s kid). The gates to the Upside Down are flung wide open, monsters are casually stalking the streets like they own the place and the gang that once pedaled bikes and rolled dice is now fighting for survival on a scale that could erase everything they hold dear.

Zootopia is back, and so are the mammals, marsupials, reptiles (yes, finally), and a whole stadium’s worth of pun-heavy signage. After nine years, Zootopia 2 arrives carrying the kind of expectations that could buckle even the strongest Wilde, Nick Wilde, that is. Fans hoped for another sharp, socially aware, laugh-out-loud adventure. Disney hoped for another billion-dollar cultural moment. And critics? Well, we hoped the sequel wouldn’t feel like a committee meeting led by
