A certain segment of the viewing population probably felt very satisfied by that last scene because holy crap dragons! But where I fell in love with a last minute appearance from the most obviously name of Danearyses dragons, Drogon, was in how perfectly it encapsulated this week’s theme. The best episodes of Game of Thrones […]
Mad Men is back! I mean, it’s been back for two episodes but last night you felt the last season hit its stride. We got full helpings of Don, Betty, Sally, Glen, Joan, and even a great runner involving what’s happening in the future. Poetic and foreboding? That’s Mad Men’s bread and butter. Or Bourbon […]
The night may in fact be dark and full of terrors – but I don’t know about them. As an avid, although forgetful, book reader, I’ve mostly known where the series was going thus far. I’ve known when Kings were going to topple, when brats were gonna get murdered, when weddings were going to turn […]

The adverts openly mock Grunkle Stan and he bans them from going. Disobeying his orders, the kids go anyways to find out […]
The girls on Girls are finally growing up!

The problem? It was in Tokyo. And Shoshonna was getting really serious with the […]
Everyone continued to be completely terrible to each other during Girls’ “Daddy Issues.” Tad came to New York after coming out. Hannah and her mom weren’t dealing with it well, but they both, of course, have the right to their feelings. Hannah was feeling really uncomfortable about the whole thing, especially since people kept bringing […]
I thought this week’s episode of Girls “Tad & Loreen & Avi & Shanaz” was amazing. Coming out of therapy and just after Hannah’s mom Loreen got tenure, Hannah’s dad Tad told her he was gay. It did seem like Tad had a lot on his mind when he went to see Hannah. And Loreen […]
