This post assumes readers are caught up on Game of Thrones through season 8, episode 2, “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms,” and thus contains spoilers up to that point. We are finally in the last season of Game of Thrones, and the closer we get to the end, the more long-awaited fan theories are […]
Going into the Gilmore Girls revival, there were a few things we were able to count on. Stars Hollow would remain the happy little town that it’s always been, Lorelai Gilmore would still be managing the Dragonfly, Luke would still be pouring coffee at his diner, and we’d find ourselves still wondering who Rory might […]
Last week, Variety dropped the news that a Clue remake is in the works at Fox Studios. The plan was originally part of an overarching Hasbro film universe based on beloved board games, something that Universal scrapped (well, ran screaming from, more like) after the massive failure that was Battleship.

This article contains spoilers for 11.22.63, both Stephen King’s novel and the Hulu adaptation. Last Monday, the final episode of Hulu’s adaptation of Stephen King’s 11.22.63 went up. I read the book as soon as King released it, and I really enjoyed it. I would argue that it’s one of the best books he’s written […]
Welcome to Five by Friday! This week I’m taking the reins and talking about my top five favorite characters with beards, because men with beards are a delight and a blessing and we are all lucky to live in a world where men can grow hair on their faces. Join us in the comments or on your […]
Dragon Age: Inquisition is the third installment of the award-winning Dragon Age series after Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age 2. Those of us who have played these games from the beginning and have grown fond of the world of Thedas and the people who inhabit it were thrilled to get the game when it […]
