Death is only the beginning...

Last night’s episode of Game of Thrones was the episode I have been waiting for all season. It was the most action packed episode of the season, and I hope in the next few episodes we see more of that. So much has gone on in the last few episodes that I haven’t had the chance to review, but this episode topped them all.

We stand before the journey that leads us all...TO OREGON!!

The Oregon Trail. I remember sitting in school learning about the pioneers heading west and the many challenges they faced. I have seen numerous documentaries and movies about the pioneers and The Old West - full of cowboys and Indians; bandits and buffalos. However, the one thing I think of almost immediately when hearing “The Oregon Tr...

Jon Snow, Lord Commander and Brother of the Night's Watch

Last night was the mid-season episode of Game of Thrones. Yes, season five is halfway over.

Avengers Assemble

It’s not even officially summer yet, and Age of Ultron is already the hit movie of the season. The eagerly anticipated follow-up to the 2012 hit film, Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Hawkeye, Black Widow, and the Hulk take on a different kind of threat in the form of the evil artificial intelligence of Ultron.

Thanks to our other editor, Julie, I have come to enjoy several different ones from Serial to Welcome to Nightvale and Comedy Bang Bang. However, recently I saw a new podcast sneak its way on to my Twitter feed ...

I was elated to see Orphan Black return to my television last weekend. It’s definitely one of the most unique shows on television. Last season, Sarah Manning and her fellow clones (all played by the incredible Tatiana Maslany) found out that they are not the only set of clones out there. The season ended with the revelation of Project Castor, a set of male clones developed by the Armed Forces.

Winter is Coming...

Last night’s episode of Game of Thrones, "High Sparrow," featured many of the main characters of the series and their nail-biting story lines. Arya is at The House of Black and White, Jon is the new Lord Commander, Cersei is now Queen Mother, Sansa has returned to Winterfell, and Tyrion has been captured. A lot has happened in Westeros in these last three...
