  • Game of Thrones (Season 7)

    —

    Here we are, the 7th (and shorter) season. Two episodes in, we still haven’t gotten to the meat of things, but it’s off to a decent start, after a pretty quiet first episode (but with the delicious Ariya revenge scene at the start), and then a second episode that puts things in motion (naval battle,…

  • Lucha Underground (Season 1)

    —

    Right now I’m incredibly addicted to watching the first season of Lucha Underground — I’m currently on episode 31 of 39 (they have the first 2 seasons on Netflix). I watched it for the first time back in 2015 while I was still in Japan, and was enjoying it at that time as well, but then…

  • Sunday Morning Cartoon Cavalcade (July 2017)

    —

    So even though I haven’t been posting updates on a weekly basis like I was doing, I have in fact still been watching cartoons every Sunday morning. My standby continues to be a couple of Mickey Mouse shorts (I just finished season 2, so from next week will be attacking season 3) and old Merry…

  • South Park (Season 20)

    —

    It’s been years since I’ve watched any South Park (I’d say probably 10-15 years), but these past few days I’ve been playing the South Park Phone Destroyer game, and it got me wanting to check it out again, so I decided to jump into season 20 (the latest season that they have up on the…

  • Castlevania

    —

    I often complain about the lack of animation produced in North American aimed at adults that’s not comedy, and so not only was I extremely excited to watch Castlevania because of that, but also because it’s based on a game series I love, and more importantly, it’s written by Warren Ellis — who I still…

  • Sarah Silverman: A Speck of Dust

    —

    I’ve been disappointed by a lot of stand-up comedy specials of late, but I was happy to laugh pretty much from start to finish while watching Sarah Silverman’s new Netflix special. Sure, you need to be a fan of her dark/crass comedy, but if you are, this is pretty classic Sarah, and I loved it.

  • GLOW

    —

    I’ve had a hard time really getting into TV shows of late (other than Twin Peaks and Better Call Saul), and so was pretty excited to see GLOW finally show up on Netflix. The premise sounded great — the making of a women’s wrestling show in the 80s — and the trailer I’d seen looked…

  • Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (Season 3)

    —

    Strangely, I’m having a hard time finding the drive to watch this new season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. I loved the first two seasons to death, and was super excited to get a new season last month. But I’ve watched the first 2-3 episodes, and they’re just not hitting for me. I don’t think it’s…
