24: Legacy Season 1 Episode 8 Review – ‘7:00 PM – 8:00 PM’

by

Ricky Church reviews the eighth episode of 24: Legacy… Once again, 24: Legacy didn’t disappoint. Following up from last week’s tense episode, ‘7:00 PM – 8:00 PM’ doubled down on Carter’s situation with his plan to destroy bin-Khalid’s hard drive going horribly wrong and deciding he and Andy were expendable for the greater good. All […]

by

Red Stewart reviews the first episode of Black Lightning… Since Marvel’s reinvention of the genre in the 1960s, superhero comics have extended past the two-dimensional good vs. bad dynamic and delved into some tragically deep themes.

The Flash Season 3 Episode 17 Review – ‘Duet’

by

Jessie Robertson reviews the seventeenth episode of The Flash season 3… Music Meister….or Cupid? Tonight was the “musical” episode and while it had its flashes of pomp, circumstance and oh yes, the stars of our weekly superhero show belting out the tunes, it was more plot than musical.

Arrow Season 5 Episode 19 Review – ‘Dangerous Liaisons’

by

Jessie Robertson reviews the nineteenth episode of Arrow season 5… Part Cyber Crime Thriller, Part Heartwarming Family Drama, Arrow does it all!

The “chase” […]
