My husband and I are both fans of true crime documentaries. I never used to be into them prior to meeting Blaine; he is the one who kind of spurred my interest in true crime shows and series, and without sounding like a wimp, I prefer to watch them with him as opposed to by … More ‘The Murder of Laci Peterson’: a chilling Netflix documentary
I recently finished watching Amazon Prime’s absolutely wild television series known as The Boys. I wasn’t entirely certain as to what to expect when I started watching it, but by the end of the fourth season (the fifth and final is being released next year), I can definitely say this show is not a superhero … More Have you seen ‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’?
Unsolved Mysteries is not, by any means, a new series. From what I could find online, the American series first debuted in 1897 and ran until 2010, and it was picked up again in 2020 with new episodes. The original creators of the show were John Cosgrove and Terry Dunn Meurer, and it originally starred … More Unsolved Mysteries: a must-watch
It seems as though evenings in which Blaine and I are able to watch a movie together without him falling asleep are becoming more and more distant as of late. I don’t mean to sound as though I am blaming him – he works long, tiring days, so it makes sense he is pooped at … More Have you seen ‘Instant Family’?
I believe I mentioned how I recently wrapped up watching all three seasons of Bridgerton, meaning I had to find something new to watch. I contemplated rewatching one of my familiar favourites, like Vikings or The Last Kingdom, and while these shows will arguably be some of my top picks for the remainder of my … More Do you watch ‘The Boys’?
In the last post I wrote about Bridgerton, I admitted I wasn’t taken by this series nearly to the same extent everyone and their mother seems to be. Bridgerton is, apparently, the show right now, and it’s all I see anytime I check my social media channels. Granted, algorithms don’t help with this, but regardless, … More Bridgerton: final thoughts
I wrote a post a little while ago detailing my honest thoughts about the widely popular Netflix television series known as Bridgerton. I enjoyed elements of it, and while I don’t necessarily think the show lives up to the ridiculous hype it is receiving in the media, it is a decent watch. I’m halfway through … More Queen Charlotte: a helpful guide for watching Bridgerton
I haven’t exactly hidden my love and adoration for television series and films set in the Medieval and/or Renaissance era. From Vikings to Saxons, to Royals and Earls, I can’t get enough of this period in history, and I am rather grateful there are so many television and film productions available that take place in … More Is ‘Bridgerton’ worth the hype?
When I took the time the other day to use my infrared sauna, I suddenly decided that instead of continuing to watch something I had previously started, I wanted to watch something entirely new. I’m not a spontaneous person whatsoever, but every now and then, I surprise myself, regardless of how mild the spontaneity is. … More Have you seen ‘The Legend of Tarzan’?
If you own or use Netflix, there is a strong probability you’ve heard something or another about a series that recently premiered titled Baby Reindeer. Categorized as a dark humour-drama-thriller mini-series, it stars Richard Gadd as Donny and Jessica Gunning as Martha. A significant detail to note is that Gadd, the lad who plays Donny, … More This is why you should watch ‘Baby Reindeer’
My husband and I are avid watchers of true crime documentaries. Blaine likes them slightly more than I do; he will quite literally put on a serial killer special right before bed to fall asleep. I’m not entirely sure if I should be concerned about his preferences, but so far I haven’t noticed any red … More Have you seen ‘Unlocked: A Jail Experiment’?
The concept of film really is a wonderful one, in my opinion. To consider the time, effort, money, and special skills required to create a movie is astounding, really, depending on what sorts of film you’re into, and I do have a significant level of respect for filmmakers and all of the individuals who work … More What movie scene changed your life?
If you use Netflix, there is a strong probability you’ve heard of a recently released film titled Damsel. If you don’t use Netflix, there is still a strong chance you’ve heard something about this film because it seems to be all over social media at any given moment, based on what I’ve seen on my … More Have you seen ‘Damsel’?
I wouldn’t consider myself a tremendous fan of Marvel and superhero movies, but I do like to dabble in them here and there. I can say I have not seen most Marvel films, but out of the ones I have seen, they’re usually damn good – the special effects in particular. Blaine fell asleep quite … More Morbius: hit or miss?
I’m putting my foot in my mouth to a moderate extent in the context of reality television and my thoughts about it; I wrote a post a little while ago depicting my honest thoughts about a reality television series titled Love is Blind, and in that post, I made mention of how I’m not an … More Love on the Spectrum: a must watch
I am loyal to a handful of comedy television series that actually have the ability to make me laugh aloud. I think most people would agree with me in saying that these days, truly hilarious comedy material is a little more difficult to come by than it once was, and this realization is a saddening … More Are you a fan of ‘Superstore’?
I am entirely aware of how delayed I am in getting around to watching an episode from a commonly known television series titled Love is Blind, thus there is no need to remind me. To be honest, when the series first premiered and I read about it, I was rather presumptuous and deemed the show … More ‘Love is Blind’: an interesting approach to love
I was absolutely delighted to learn that a rugby documentary was recently added to Netflix. Rugby is popular and is well-known around the world, but here in North America, I sometimes feel as though the sport is slept on a wee bit. It doesn’t garner the fans nor the attention that the NFL or NHL … More If you’re a rugby fan, you need to watch ‘Six Nations: Full Contact’
This past weekend, I went with my mom and dad to theatres to see Ferrari. My dad is a tremendous car and motorsport buff; he has a car collection of his own, along with a pulling tractor, and between his ’55 Thunderbird, ’66 Cobra, ’69 Camaro, and my mom’s ’67 Mustang, it is safe to … More Ferrari: family over Formula One
When I studied at university, I majored in English, which most of you already know, and I minored in women and gender studies. One of the key teachings we discussed in my women and gender courses was the concept of victim blaming, and if you’re unfamiliar with it, allow me to explain. Victim blaming is … More Netflix’s American Nightmare: victim blaming at its finest
I love me a solid comedy movie, as most people do. Laughing is always a joyous experience, and it can bring out the best in just about anybody, so it makes sense why so many of us enjoy watching the comedy genre. The issue with comedy movies as of late, however, is that most of … More If you need a laugh, watch ‘The Out-Laws’
War movies are a genre of film that I absolutely admire and appreciate, but tend to avoid for the most part. My reasoning for avoiding them is understandable, in a sense; oftentimes, war movies are incredibly sad as they depict the harsh realities of battle and what soldiers experience. That isn’t to say that we … More Have you seen ‘Devotion’?
I take full responsibility and acknowledge my tardiness in getting around to watching arguably one of the best shows in existence, but I figure better delayed than never. In case the title didn’t give it away, the show in question I am referring to is known as Peaky Blinders, and I’m actually a bit pissed … More Yes, you should watch Peaky Blinders
As much as I enjoy watching series and movies dealing with significantly heavy subject matter, I do like to spice things up and throw a dash of comedy in here and there. Currently, I’m rewatching Vikings (shocking, I know), and I recently started Peaky Blinders which I am thoroughly enjoying thus far. If you’re familiar … More Derry Girls: a hidden comedy gem
Perhaps a better-suited title for today’s post would be who hasn’t seen ‘A Perfect Storm’?, and I fully admit that it has taken me far longer than intended to get around to watching this movie. I had heard of it, and had furthermore heard it’s considered to be a classic in the opinions of some, … More Have you seen ‘A Perfect Storm’?
I have a tremendous amount of respect for soccer as a sport and soccer players as athletes, but to be entirely honest, the game simply is not for me. I tried playing soccer when I was a child and again when I was a bit older in elementary school, and neither attempt proved to be … More Have you seen ‘Beckham’?
Quite a few years back now, I remember reading a story via Daily Mail discussing a seriously complex murder investigation that was unfolding in South Carolina. Perhaps the case caught my eye because I have family in South Carolina; regardless of the reason why I started minimally following this story, I certainly was not anticipating … More Have you seen Murdaugh Murders: A Southern Scandal?
I firmly feel as though the remainder of 2023 is going to be Cillian Murphy’s, arguably because of the release of Oppenheimer, which he starred in, earlier this year. To be honest, I think this man should have been receiving the attention and recognition he has since the release of Oppenheimer his entire career, but … More Let’s chat about Cillian Murphy
If you’ve never heard the phrase ‘go-to comfort show’ before, allow me to provide you with the details. I first heard this terminology a couple of years ago, entirely unaware of the fact that I was already dabbling in the act itself, but in my own words, it is the process of watching a movie … More What’s your go-to comfort show?
While I recognize it technically isn’t yet spooky season, it isn’t terribly far off, and given this is my favourite time of year, you can bet your ass I’ll be getting a head start on all things Fall. With Fall naturally comes horror movies, you know, because once October is here spooky season will officially … More Prepare to be scared
