The Canadian comedy television show, Letterkenny, was picked up by Hulu and released to viewers only months ago. The show is now in its fifth season but Hulu only currently has seasons one and two streaming. We have no word on when season 3 will be available to us. However, if the show becomes as…
Better Call Saul, Season Four, Episode Two: “Breathe” We all wear masks from time to time. It’s a skill we learn at a young age—we’re taught not to let people see who you really are. We learn to let them see what we want them to see. It’s safer that way. We’re afraid that, if…
Any horror geek will tell you that Stephen King is one of the greatest horror novelists of all time. He is known for creating a world in which monsters are real and live within us. A born native to Maine, many of King’s storylines are centered around fictional towns that lie within the borders of…
Ballers Season Four, Episode One–“Rough Ride” Season Four of Ballers kicks off (pardon the pun) with a game-changer (and that one) that’s going to rock (I promise—that’s the last one) Spencer Strasmore’s world. After winning his battle with the NFL last season but ultimately losing the war, Spencer seemed ready to settle back into the…
Let’s Get Weird Episode four of Atlanta is markedly weirder than those before it. If you thought season one had plenty of bizarre, surreal imagery, season two, especially last Thursday’s “Helen,” promises a departure into dreamlike territory. Think Raymond Roussel’s Locus Solus and Andre Breton’s Manifesto of Surrealism. Back when Donald Glover and company were promoting…
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,…
Alright well, here we are. Welcome to the inaugural edition of the Geekly Ramble, Geek Insider’s Weekly Recap of all things…well, geekish, that happened in the last seven days. The following will range from the highs of “Holy Freaking Yes!” to the more sombre notes or “argh” “blegh” and even the coveted “like, why?”. Strap…
Bryan Cranston will soon be returning to television. The Breaking Bad star has just signed on to appear in Electric Dreams: The World of Philip K. Dick, an anthology series based on the works of Philip K. Dick. Electric Dreams will feature a different story per episode, with a team of British and American writers…
This week, CBS aired the pilot episode of its new show Zoo, titled “First Blood.” Reminiscent of disaster/apocalypse movies and the action/thriller genre of TV, this series nonetheless brings a fresh look to the theme of a changing world. It has a definite pro-nature tone, with the question being asked in the first few seconds of…
At this point, being a geek has become largely mainstream. More and more people have come to the conclusion that “brainy is the new sexy,” as exemplified by the many intelligent, observant, well-dressed people on our TVs. The new CBS TV show Scorpion, which has been approved for a second season, illustrates just that. Meet Scorpion’s …
Marvel has joined the superhero TV show bandwagon with Daredevil, a Netflix-exclusive show created by Drew Goddard. From the first episode, the atmosphere is set. This is undoubtedly a dark, Batman-esque series, as it takes place at night or in dimly-lit areas most of the time (in a place called Hell’s Kitchen, New York, no…
M*A*S*H (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital) is not your average doctor show or sitcom. Running eleven seasons from 1972-83, it tells the tale of a camp of American army surgeons who care for wounded soldiers during the Korean War (though the show itself lasted longer than the Korean War did). They move around from place to…
Fans of Film and Fashion Rejoice I’m sure we can all agree that our favorite characters from the realm of movies and television have some of the most distinct and iconic senses of style, and we wish we could raid their wardrobes on a whim. That is now entirely possible thanks to a website called Spylight….
We have a plethora of guys that have taken over Netflix. TV show after TV show has another male protagonist that always saves the day and make all the ladies swoon. Don’t get me wrong, characters like The Doctor, Merlin, Sherlock, and Jon Snow are all absolutely fantastic! My only question is, where are all…
Arguably one of the TV’s saddest news last year was Futurama finally being killed off (for the second time). The show was rescued once by Comedy Central in 2008 after Fox originally canceled it in 2003. However, the wonderful animated sit-com did have a decent run with 7 season and 140 episodes. It just seems unfair that we couldn’t…
