[Spoilers] Continuing on in my quest to watch sci-fi shows that I missed on their first run, today here are some quick thoughts on Invasion (2005). The show is available for free on Tubi for those who want to see it, and it was originally on ABC.I guess this is one of those shows that was canceled a little bit before its time. It only had one season, and that season is very uneven in its pacing. I

Here's something that's been sitting in my drafts for a while! I wasn't sure about starting this TV series, but who can go wrong with Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista in the headline?!The premise of the show is that in the 21st century, a virus wiped out most of humanity (yay!!!😵‍💫). Fewer than two million people survived, and all their descendants have lost their sense of sight (good job, humans!).

So... returning to my review of old sci-fi TV shows that I had never seen before, here's a quick view of a British Sci-Fi show titled Space: 1999 by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson (of Thunderbirds fame, and Space Precinct, which I also think I wrote about before).This is one trippy show... The premise of Space: 1999 centers on the plight of the inhabitants of Moonbase Alpha, a scientific research center

You know... I don't remember when I completed this game (or at the very least I said "OK I am done") - Based on when the achievements I unlocked were timestamped, it must have been April 2023.I wanted to finish this game before the new AC: Mirage game launched, and hey - goal achieved!In this game I chose to play as the Eivor that the game wanted me to play - so in the real world I was female, and

Another fun game that I finished a little less than a year ago on 11/30I got this game on sale when an acquaintance from our dog park recommended it.  Star Wars is fine as a franchise, but I don't geek out over space druids (LOL, I am sure that might have triggered some folks).  But, the recent resurgence of content from Disney, with three TV series currently on, and a few animated ones

Going back to my backlog to finish jotting down thoughts on games that I've completed a while ago now.  This mini review is for Mass Effect: Andromeda, a game that I finished a year ago (yes, I should blog more often).  Just for the record, I finished ME:A on 10/6/22.I know that this game seems to get a ton of hate.  I don't really get the hate because it was, legitimately, a fun

It's weird that I started writing this last summer and I am only now getting to it... let's see how much I remember 😂.OK, so last summer I watched this series.  The premise was quite simple: who's the next Hawkeye not that Hawkeye has "retired" from being a superhero? This series takes place after the events of Avengers: Endgame. It's Christmas Time in New York, and all Clint Barton

Here's another show from my sci-fi catch-up watch.  This one was on Hulu, I think, and it's a comedy about alien abductees.The series follows city journalist Ozzie Graham, played by Wyatt Cenac, who travels to Beacon, New York to write a piece on a support group called "StarCrossed," who are survivors of alien encounters. The abductees are stereotypical tin-foil-hat folks. Although skeptical at

Last year, at some point, I was going through old science fiction series that I had missed while they were on TV. I thought it would be neat to go back and watch some of them, and to some extent I still am going through and watching them.  My Space: 1999 watch has stalled a bit. It's hard some times to watch this level of camp and appreciate it with a 1960's frame of mind when we live in the 2020's...Anyway,

 OK, this is one the last blog from my backlog with a games-related theme ;-)Not gonna lie, at the end of Assassin's Creed Valhalla I was in a "WTF?!?!" mood. I wasn't really sure I wanted to know more about Basim and his ways, but...now that there's a trailer out and we get to see Basim's origin story (and hopefully some kind of redemption arc in the modern day...) I can't wait for this game
