  • Devs Play

    I’m so happy that a second season of Double Fine’s Devs Play series is currently happening, and the four episodes so far have all been great. I’d say the two episodes with Patrice Désilets (playing Prince of Persia: Sands of Time and Assassin’s Creed II) are especially interesting, because you get to hear about a…

  • The League

    I’ve had this series in my Netflix list for a while, and finally got around to watching the 6-episode first season this week. I’d heard it was a funny show, and the presence of Mark Duplass was also a draw. This is indeed a super funny show – doesn’t matter if you care about fantasy…

  • Marco Polo: One Hundred Eyes

    Marco Polo is one of those Netflix series I’ve been meaning to watch for what feels like forever, and simply haven’t gotten around to it. I saw that there was a new half-hour special that popped up – it’s in part to tease the upcoming second season – and so I decided to watch it.…

  • Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    I watched the first two seasons of this a while back (when I was still in Japan), and recently decided to jump back in with season 3, and I gotta say that I’m really enjoying it, much more than I remembered. I’m sure it’s in part because of my current enthusiasm for all things Star…

  • Parks and Recreation

    I used to really like this show, but then stopped following it by the end of season 5 for no special reason. This past year I’ve been watching season 6 on Netflix, episodes here and there, and then last night finished off the season by watching the last 4-5 in a row. I gotta say…

  • F Is for Family

    I’m aware of Bill Burr, having seen him on talk shows and the like, but I’m not really familiar with his style of comedy, so didn’t know what to expect from this new animated series that he created for Netflix. It debuted the other day, and I watched the first episode, and I liked it.…

  • The Expanse

    I mentioned earlier this year how I keep checking in on new sci-fi shows, hoping to finally get something that I really want to watch, and so far I keep getting disappointed after a couple of episodes. My latest attempt at watching a new sci-fi series is The Expanse, which at least has the pedigree…

  • Luther

    Always good to have Luther back for another go. I’m not sure if this fourth season is going to be 2 or 3 episodes long, but I’ll take whatever I can get. After watching the first episode, at first I didn’t like how it was taking too much time dealing with Alice, which I thought…

  • Favorite Media of 2015

    It’s my annual tradition in December to write up a list of my favorite media that I consumed throughout the year, that was released that year (here’s my 2014 edition). This is a HIGHLY subjective list, and is made up of stuff that I liked the most out of the stuff I got to experience.…

  • A Very Murray Christmas

    Really didn’t know what to expect from this thing, other than I was going in thinking it was one hell of a weird thing for Netflix to produce – and I’m not very Christmas-y, or into Christmas specials. But hey, I like Murray, I like weird things, and when I learned that it was directed…
