Back to the Drawing Board: In Defense of “The Simpsons” ‘Principle and the Pauper’ Episode

Eric — Sun, 25 Mar 2018 00:44:43 +0000

There are few certainties in this world. One of the most prevalent is that 'The Simpsons' used to be practically perfect in every way. However, has since gone downhill. Now some of that is still open to interpretation. The public seems to agree that the golden era of the show were seasons 3 through 8. It's not hard to see where they're coming from in terms of the sheer amount of classic episodes that came out during that time. Personally I think the golden era extended a few seasons beyond that. In fact, season 9 contains my personal favorite episode “Lisa's Sax.” For me the best time for "The Simpsons" were when Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein were running the show. It had the best balance of really funny jokes with genuine emotion. They quit after the 8th season as they didn't want to overstay their welcome.

‘Black Mirror’ Top 5 Episodes Before Season 4

Clinton Wells — Sun, 07 Jan 2018 01:55:28 +0000

The 4th season of “Black Mirror” just dropped on Netflix and for those that haven’t seen the show, I’d put it on your must watch list for 2018. As you may know, Black Mirror is a sci-fi anthology series that features episodes in modern society centered around ramifications of innovative technology. For many people, the first episode can be a bit too much but if you can stick with the show, it is worth it (will be talking about that in a minute). With the 4th installment, “Black Mirror” continues to bring forward incredibly complex and controversial plots. As a modern “Twilight Zone,” the series finds a nice blend of creative sci-fi plots and compelling storylines with superb acting. It is refreshing to see such original content with extreme plot twists and intriguing storytelling that can leave your jaw open questioning, “did they just go there?” Not many sci-fi shows can claim this. Before you begin watching season 4, here are my top 5 episodes from the previous 3 seasons. Disclaimer, I will do my best to not spoil any of the episodes.

Review: ‘Hey Arnold!: The Jungle Movie’ is a Nostalgia Trip Done Right

Eric — Tue, 28 Nov 2017 17:16:14 +0000

After years of waiting patiently, fans can finally get closure with "Hey Arnold!: The Jungle Movie." A thing to know about me is that I am a big "Hey Arnold!" fan. I watched it all the time growing up. I did NOT like the "Hey Arnold!: The Movie" (fair warning I'll be referring/comparing this a lot throughout) that came out in the early 2000s and can see why it killed off this film for some time. Like my "Trans-Dimensional Turtles" review I think I'll need to quickly give my thoughts on the "Hey Arnold!" series first so that you can see where I'm coming from.

5 Things We Want to See in ‘Stranger Things’ Season 3

Eric — Tue, 21 Nov 2017 15:22:54 +0000

"Stranger Things" is something that if my little sister hadn't pressed me on it's possible that it would have passed me by like many other acclaimed Netflix series I just don't watch. So thanks Lily! I wanted to wait to make sure plenty of readers had finished. Overall I thought the new season was pretty good. A little “Ghostbusters 2”-ish with a little too much repeating, but enough new stuff to make it worth it. Still I love the show and can't wait to see whatever is coming next. Some things I'm more excited about than others. I think it's self explanatory, but SPOLIERS ahead.
