TV - Terminator Zero

Many TV shows I let ripen in my "to watch" queue for months (sometimes a semester, sometimes a year...).  This one I watched as soon as it was released on Netflix last month, and it didn't disappoint!On the one hand the formula is well known for this kind of film. There is someone from the future that sends back someone (or some machine) to the past so that they can save the future.  Spoiler

TV - Evil

Here's a series that we finished in August 2024. This series was on Paramount+ (yeah, the streaming network that isn't huge and is currently struggling).  I wish that this series had more seasons, but I think the streaming service's financial woes made it necessary to wrap things up.I would best describe this series as What if X-Files didn't deal with extraterrestrials (most of the tie) but with

TV - KAOS

Here's a fun watch from earlier this month.  It's KAOS and it's on Netflix!  What is it?

TV - The Acolyte

I finally caught up with The Acolyte, a Star Wars universe adventure. The series is a typical streamer length (8 episodes) and sadly it was cancelled shortly after it was release.  As the expression goes, the body wasn't even cold yet 🫤.I rather liked the series because it paints a picture that is a bit more complicated than the typical Jedi = Good, Anger/Sith = Bad. In fact, in this series

Star Trek Legends | Done

Here's a game I "finished" this month.  I was curious about this game as it was an iOS Arcade exclusive for a while and the free three month trial of Apple Arcade was like a siren call... In the end, I skipped the mobile experience and decided to buy this on sale on Steam some time over the summer (or was it in the spring?)By "finished" I mean that I earned all Steam achievements, I finished the

TV- Jack Ryan | Review

Here's a show I finished last month (August 2024) and thought I'd write a few things about it before it completely faded from memory. This is a Tom Clancy adaptation for Amazon Prime.  The series had four seasons, and the first two were the strongest in my view.  The series stars John Krasinski (of The Office fame) as Jack Ryan, and Wendell Pierce as James Greer (Ryan's Boss).The first season
