Who knew time travel, dead bodies, and drama could all fit in one show? Spanning six decades, Netflix’s Dark takes the Sci-Fi thriller genre to a whole new level. Set in Germany in the years 1953, 1986, and 2019, the town of Winden seems like your average, quiet town. But every 33 years, something weird…
It’s frigid outside and it’s dark by like 5pm where I live. It’s the time of year where Netflix basically pays for itself. So let’s see what they have to offer in the month of December. Season 4 of Peaky Blinders and season 2 of The Crown are a given. Both shows are amazing and if…
Hitting Netflix with high praise (8.9 from IMDb, 96% from Rotten Tomatoes, and 9.2 from TV.com), Mindhunter is the next drama from Netflix to look out for. The show focuses on two FBI agents who are comically different. Holden (Jonathan Groff) is an ordinary FBI agent who becomes interested in the study of serial killer…
An exciting new trailer for Netflix’s The Punisher was released yesterday, which revealed a premiere date of November 17th. The anticipation has been building after multiple rumors and numerous cancellations. The series was hyped at Comic-Con, and then canceled earlier this month. But finally, a date has been given. The show overlaps with other Netflix…
It was an action-packed finale for The Defenders. Explosions, sacrifices, and Danny Rand looking confused and angry. Everything you would expect from such an episode. We finally learned what the Hand were trying to get to beneath Midland Circle. They are somehow harvesting the dragon bones we saw at the end of the last episode…
Was that a dragon? The final showdown has begun as our heroes face off against the remaining fingers of the Hand… and Elektra. She’s like a prosthetic finger I guess. But the majority of the seventh episode, “Fish in the Jailhouse,” was building up to that showdown with all the characters in the police station….
Rumor has it that the Nintendo Switch may have a Netflix app sometime in the near future. This is coming from a GoNintendo user, who gave the site this information: “According to a Netflix customer service rep, Netflix is “locked and loaded” for Switch. Apparently Netflix has been trying to get permission to launch their…
We’re getting very near the end game on The Defenders. The heroes are building bonds, the villains are losing their patience, and all the supporting characters are still off in the police station trying not to get murdered. But there was some pretty significant murder this episode. Here’s our recap of episode 6, “Ashes, Ashes.”…
Apparently The Defenders require less recovery time than I do after scarfing down Chinese food. They’re immediately in a very tiring looking fight with the Hand after their short reprieve in “The Royal Dragon.” This episode, “Take Shelter,” not only has the heroes score their first major victory (kind of), but it also really showcases…
Neo Yokio is premiering on Netflix on September 22nd, so let’s discuss why this anime might be different from all the others. Neo Yokio is a Korean, Japanese, and American co-production. It combines wonder kid Jaden Smith and musician Ezra Koenig to make a weird and crazy show. Kaz Kaan (voiced by Jaden Smith) is a…
If we learned anything from The Avengers, it’s that fighting supervillainy in a group setting must immediately be followed up with food. The Defenders traded in the shawarma of their tights wearing contemporaries for some very tasty looking Chinese food. I actually ate Chinese take-out the same night I watched this episode. Guys! They’re just…
Not only does the group finally team up in episode 3, but we see what The Defenders are truly capable of. Namely, beating up bad guys in hallways. What an action scene that was. With that being said, the Hand still hasn’t developed past bad guys who want to do bad stuff. But we’re learning…
Just because the summer is over, doesn’t mean Netflix is done with summer movies. September is bringing autumn, but this month, Netflix is bringing a ton of movies and shows to the service. Highlights of Netflix in September include The Rugrats Movie, Narcos season 3 and Pulp Fiction. If you felt like you missed true feeling of summer,…
The premiere episode of The Defenders had everything you would expect from our four super-powered (don’t call them) heroes. Luke Cage stood up for his neighborhood. Jessica Jones dove into a mysterious disappearance. Daredevil wrestled with his two lives. And Iron Fist… wasn’t sure what to do and complained about the Hand. Episode 2 developed…
Have you finished all eight episodes of The Defenders yet? It’s the risk of a bingeable series. You have about a day before the spoilers are out there online. Well we’re going to take a more deliberate pace going through the show. Look for our recaps about once a week. If you watched it all…
