FlixChatter TV Review: The Wheel of Time – Season 2 (ep 1-5)

Nearly two years after its first season premiered, The Wheel of Time season two dropped on Amazon Prime, and I, as your resident nerd, am here to discuss it (the first five episodes, anyway- we still have three more to go). As a reminder, I am only reviewing this as a TV show- not as …

Musings on Star Wars: Ahsoka (Ep 1-3) – sluggish start so far, but hopeful things will pick up for the rest of the series

I have to preface this post by saying I'm feeling franchise fatigue at this point, that is I can't muster up any excitement for anything by the Mouse House which is basically most things on Disney+.

TV Review: Amazon’s CITADEL (S1) – Chopra + Madden offer eye candy but the spy series is mostly style over substance bogged down by clunky expositions

The spy thriller is one of my favorite genres but there are so many of them these days it's hard to keep up with them all. This one stands out from the pack given Amazon’s huge marketing budget (you can’t escape seeing an ad for it everywhere), plus it's executive produced by the Russo brothers. …

TV Series Review: Netflix’s The Night Agent (2023)

There’s been a lot of glee and excitement about the demise of Netflix within the last couple of years from some people in the media. It’s understandable why some people would believe that will happen. Netflix has amassed tons of debts and they lost subscribers instead of gaining more. Yet despite all the noise about …
