Supergirl Season 1 Episode 13 Review – ‘For The Girl Who Has Everything’

Star Wars Rebels Season 2 Episode 14 Review – ‘Homecoming’
Chris Cooper reviews the fourteenth episode of Star Wars Rebels season 2… This week’s episode of Rebels manages to balance things really well.

Video Game Review – Dying Light : The Following
Kris Wall reviews Dying Light: The Following… Every now and again, a game comes along that completely takes you by surprise and Dying Light was that game for me in 2015.
