Getting Ready for the Big 50

Series 7 of Doctor Who wrapped up for us Americanos on Saturday. I’m not going to do a recap (because you should bloody well watch it yourself), but I do want to mention that it ended on somewhat of a cliff-hanger, introducing a “new” character. (Like the quotes? Oh, yeah…you know what I mean.) There are a lot of rumors [...]

Agents of SHIELD

I’m cautiously optimistic about the upcoming Agents of SHIELD. Recently picked up by ABC, the show looks promising and features everybody’s favorite dead SHIELD agent, Phil Coulson. (Is he dead? Sure we saw him die, BUT we didn’t see the body afterwards! I’m just saying that this is the comics world, people. He’s totally coming back. You’ve heard the rumors… [...]

Watch it: As a self-proclaimed super fan of The Walking Dead, I gotta say this is the best thing I’ve seen in a long time [...]

Pop Shock: Radioactive

As an adult individual who spends an embarrassing amount of time with our All-Father, the Internet, I must say that there’s not a whole lot that surprises me, anymore. It’s rare that I don’t have music blaring through my ear buds, damaging my inner ears and making my day go just a bit faster. I’m always on the look out [...]

The Walking Dead: A Week Later

Be warned: There are some SPOILERS below as I whine about The Walking Dead!  Last week, the world watched as NOTHING really happened to The Governor (TG) on The Walking Dead. Sure, he killed a bunch of people and stuff; but he tore off into the sunset with his two loyal lackeys, fleeing to fight another day. The disappointment was palpable [...]

The Walking Dead Recap/Review: “Welcome to the Tombs”

So, this is a recap for a season finale. Yeah, there will be SPOILERS. Andrea finally paid the piper for all her stupid decisions this season! YES! Honestly, I wasn’t sad to see her go. I’m sure I’ll find someone else to yell at during next season, but for now, I am satisfied. Ghoulish? Not really. I have my reasons! Read [...]

The Walking Dead Recap/Review: “This Sorrowful Life”

SPOILERS, mates. Plain and simple. Thar she blows! What happened this week? Well, Rick made a bad call, and Merle paid for it with his life in an effort to earn redemption. BAM! RECAP OVER! No, not really. But, that’s really what happened! After the show was over, my husband looked at me and said, “Well, there goes one of [...]

The Walking Dead Recap/Review: “Prey”

Pssst! Hey, you! Yeah, you. This article contains SPOILERS and lots of them! The Walking Dead is trying to make me like Andrea. At least, that was my take-away from last night’s episode. See, this entire season, Andrea has pretty much been a walking (teehee! “Walking!”) disaster, forcing me to hate her for decisions that could only lead to ruin. [...]

The Walking Dead Recap/Review: “Arrow on the Doorpost”

This is a recap. There will be SPOILERS. You’re my best friend. Glenn finally made nice with Maggie! Emphasis on the “nice.” (Bow-chicka-wow-wow!) He got to step up and be the leader he so desperately wants to be. In this world, one’s mettle is often shown in the physical realm. Having brains to back it up is a must, but [...]

The Walking Dead Recap/Review: “Clear”

I won’t insult your intelligence by telling you that there are SPOILERS in this article. I mean, you’re a smart person; you see the word “Recap,” right? So, you don’t need me to tell you something obvious. But, yeah…SPOILERS! We got to reconnect with an old flame during “Clear!” And by “reconnect,” I mean almost die from an attack. And by [...]

The Walking Dead Recap/Review: “Home”

Spoilers, yo, and lots of them! You’ve been warned. (It does say “recap” in the title…just saying.) I was seriously JUST starting to like Axel. Dang it! Now, all of the prisoners are dead, and the prison truly belongs to Rick’s group. (Crazy people running the asylum, anyone?) But, is it even still Rick’s group? Or is Glenn trying on [...]

The Week in Geek: Feb. 2, 2012

The temperature this week has had more ups and downs than a drag queen’s wigs during a show. I may have run out yesterday in a fleece, but I shivered home in the snow. Fortunately the weather wasn’t the only interesting thing that happened this week!  Want to be perceived as a hipster but hate all the going to dive [...]

The Good Doctor Returns March 30

Doctor Who will return on March 30, according to BBC America. The good news broke yesterday. Whovians, rejoice! The Christmas special gave us our second view of the mysterious Clara Oswin Oswald (Jenna-Louise Coleman), and both times we’ve seen her, she’s died! But, we know Oswin’s supposed to be the Doctor’s new companion, so something is definitely going on with [...]

According to my phone, Albany is currently 11°F. That means that only reason I’m leaving my house is to get a haircut (Because my long hair is mad aggravating, yo.) and buy a sofa (Fun fact: Five years after college is the international time limit for owning a futon instead of a sofa bed. Sure, we can call what’s in [...]

The Walking Dead: An Eye For An Eye

Yesterday, AMC released the midseason poster for The Walking Dead. Behold! If you’re into the comics at all, you know that Rick isn’t likely to lose an eye. (Unless the showrunners take us for a little ride away from the original story!) But, I love how the poster art cuts his face in half to hide his left eye! (Not [...]

Why Jumping Rope is Ruining Our Children

Join me, oh citizens of the world (for this is not only a problem with our great United States of America)! Join me in decrying the vile, child-corrupting activities promoted on the evil Intertubes! Our children are not safe! They are buying candy from pint-sized drug dealers. Drinking Arizona Tea from PAPER BAGS! And Pixie Stix?! Don’t get me started! [...]

I’ve emerged from my eggnog and snow-induced coma to toss some links over the snowbanks to you. The Andre’s rosè is chilling in your fridge; your party shirt has been re-sequinned and, if your year is like mine, your party jeans have all been stretched to accommodate your post-wedding, post-I-don’t-need-to-stay-the-same-size-for-a-year-any more body. You think you’re all ready for New Year’s [...]
