Villordsutch reviews Red Dwarf XII – Mechocracy…After last week’s Red Dwarf XII “Timewave” in which our favourite sci-fi/comedy show took a serious nosedive, switching on the latest offering from Doug Naylor (again on writing and directing duties) is taken with a wee bit of trepidation. However come the close of Mechocracy all my negative dreads […]

Marvel’s The Gifted Season 1 Episode 5 Review – ‘boXed in’
Rachel Bellwoar reviews the fifth episode of Marvel’s The Gifted…For an episode titled ‘boXed in,’ there sure are a lot of secrets coming out. It’s nice to see a show not waver about putting everyone’s cards on the table. Reed’s barely at Mutant Headquarters long enough to reunite with his kids before the bartender recognizes him […]

Arrow Season 6 Episode 3 Review – ‘Next of Kin’
Jessie Robertson reviews the third episode of Arrow season 6…It’s hard to say where Arrow is going these days but I kind of like that about it; on The Flash, we have “The Thinker” sitting in his chair, looking like a rejected Matrix character, with 12 metas waiting out there; it feels very similar to […]
