Spoilers, kind of. Maybe don't read if you haven't finished the episode. Since House of the Dragon ended, my Sunday nights have been pretty dry television-wise.

It just annoyed me. I finished those thirteen episodes… Continue reading The Tragic End Of An Iconic Era – Orange Is the New Black S7
Beyoncé. That's it. That's the review.
Spoilers? Duh. I never thought the day would come that I'd be unimpressed, disappointed even, with anything Harry Potter-related, but that day has finally come! The visually-stunning second film of the Fantastic Beasts series, The Crimes of Grindelwald, hit U.S. theaters last month and after sitting through 2+ hours of Eddie Redmayne's perfectly coiffed hair, I cannot say… Continue reading Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of J.K.

Let me start this post off by saying there will be spoilers. For any of you who may have lived under a rock for the past five years and aren't familiar with Netflix hit Orange Is the New Black (I'll be referring to it from here on out as OITNB or Orange for simplicity's sake), the show follows… Continue reading Vengeance, Kickball, and Sheer Disappointment: Orange Is the New Black S6
