You could say that the show is very “timely”, as it is very easy to imagine a near future where the United States of America finds itself in a such a situation. There is a definite a feeling of unrest in the country

Buffy, the Vampire Slayer: 25 Years of Vamping!
…it’s Magic! I am not talking of spells and rituals, potions, or wands, but the convergence of so many aspects that go into a television program, like a big jigsaw puzzle, that the only word to describe it is… “Magic!”.

Fresh: Love Spoils so Easily
Fresh
Touted as a horror comedy, I would say it is a bit light on the comedy, with more emphasis on the “thriller” aspect with a plot twist that truly is “Fresh” and a cut above the rest.

Guardians of Justice
The plot is intriguing and presented in an interesting fashion, by using a mixture of animation, video game sequences and live action. The editing on the series is amazing and the music choices are quite good and appropriate for the action.

Black History Month-Vixen: Spirit of the Animal Kingdom
Vixen: The Movie
The wonderful thing about the series / movie is that it fits into two different worlds. It has the same look and feel as the other DC Animated movies which I really like, but it also exists in the same universe as the CWs Arrow and Flash.

Reacher: Details Matter

Reacher is a type of modern-day Sherlock Holmes, if Holmes had ripped abs and biceps bigger than most people’s legs. He observes and quickly comprehends everything around him and is hardly ever wrong.
