The Sandman
Having never read the GRAPHIC NOVELS but heard loads about them over the years I was very keen to watch this, and mostly enjoyed the British emo/stoner vibing lead character. Took me a minute...

The Boys – Season 3
This show. My god, this show. I found myself describing in breathlessly to a workmate and realised that I absolutely love it. Flawed characters… flawed SUPERHEROES… and the set pieces – even after 2...
Obi-Wan Kenobi
I really think Ewan McGregor was giving this all he had, but it’s not possible to overcome the laziness of the Star Wars franchise and its 21st Century architects. A patronising parade of fan-appeasing...
Upload – Season 2
Season 1 of this really, really grabbed me – so it’s a bit of a shame that this followup instalment seemed to wander a bit. I don’t know if there was an element of...

Rick and Morty (last few episodes of S4)
This is more a placeholder to mark the date than an insightful comment. However I just can’t believe how it’s taken me so long to fall under the inane spell of Rick & Morty....
