After last week’s breakdown, Dexter (Michael C. Hall) enlists Dr. Vogel (Charlotte Rampling) to fix Deborah (Jennifer Carpenter) before it’s too late. The question is whether she’s already too far gone?

July 22, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

This week’s True Blood has everything: decapitations, shots to the head, near-drowning, Faerie light, and gratuitous amounts of female nudity. So why am I so freaking bored?

We’re ready to tackle episodes two and three of Netflix’s Orange Is the New Black. Can the women-in-prison dramedy maintain the high standards set by the pilot?

The Bridge review – 1×02: ‘Calaca’

July 18, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of FX

It’s time for the second episode of FX’s smash hit, The Bridge, which offers us a better idea of what we can expect for the remainder of the season. So what exactly will this show deliver?

The town of Chester’s Mill becomes a giant incubator as meningitis comes to town. Thank goodness there’s a respectable number of red shirts hanging around to fall ill and die!

July 16, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

I’m sure we’re meant to be aghast at the developments of the latest episode of Teen Wolf, but all I feel like is a broken record: what is with the terrible plotting this season?

Dexter review – 8×03: ‘What’s Eating Dexter Morgan?’

July 15, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of Showtime

Although the title suggests that something is bothering Dexter (Michael C Hall), it’s more appropriate to suggest that Deborah (Jennifer Carpenter) is the one headed off the deep end. And wait…is Quinn (Desmond Harrington) suddenly an integral character on the show???

The most “summery” of summer action films has arrived in the form of Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim, or as it’s known by the general populace, Monsters vs Robots. So what can you expect from the 2+ hours smashdown?
