Catch It on Catch Up: Once Upon A Time Season 4!

2/28/2015

by Julia Lawson

Folks we have survived the wait! Pats on the back all round. The time has come to return to Storybrooke, our favourite fairytale town in Maine, following the happy conclusion to the wintery tension introduced by two snow queens. But let’s first remind ourselves of the most recent goings-on…

Every so often, an episode of a TV show comes along that is so important, and so well-crafted, that it sparks a necessary dialogue and just will not stop playing on your mind. Cucumber, which has mostly been a comedy-drama, and has often paled in comparison to anthology sister show Banana, had one such episode this week, with possibly the most remarkable writing of Russell T Davies’ career. It is essential to note that this review contains major spoilers, but also discussion of events and themes that some readers may find distressing.

Better Call Saul "Hero" Review (Spoilers!)

Nobody was expecting Better Call Saul to be better than or even as good as Breaking Bad; we knew a bar had been set and that it wasn’t trying to be reached, so you’d think that, with this mindset, disappointment wouldn’t be too large a factor when watching the show. Disappointment shouldn’t be a factor full stop really because Better Call Saul is far from bad, but much like last week, this week’s episode is problematic for one reason and one reason alone: Pacing.

Dare I say it, is Gotham picking up the game?

With last week’s stellar reveal of who ‘The Joker’ actually is (finally – it’s about time!) in this juvenile Batman Universe with latest episode, Red Hood, we are offered a much more in depth look at characters that have been overlooked.

Another fantastic episode of The 100 aired in the UK last night, and what an episode it was. The series may well be one of the best post-apocalyptic shows of all time, following a group of humans, nicknamed “Sky People” as they try to return to earth after being stuck in a Space Station for generations after a nuclear war wreaked havoc on the planet below.

I’m With Geek was fortunate enough to get an interview with the creator, executive producer and writer of the show, Jason Rothenberg. The first half was posted a few weeks and now we are pleased to announce the second half of this brilliant interview.

If you have yet to watch the latest episode, please be warned SPOILERS LOOM!

The Walking Dead "The Distance" Review (Spoilers!)

2/25/2015

by Robbie Jones

Following on from The Walking Dead’s heartbreaking mid season opener, the show has really slowed down in pace. That’s not a bad thing however as we’ve been treated to some great character development, and this week is no exception.

Star Wars Rebels "Rebel Resolve" Review

The penultimate episode of Star Wars Rebels has drawn to a close and things seem pretty bleak for our group of heroes. Luckily, this week still manages to marry the humour and action along with tension and fear.

Broadchurch Finale Review (Spoilers!)

If you opened up your dictionary and looked up the term “sophomore slump” then you’ll see a picture of Broadchurch Season Two. It is a massive shame because the first series was met with much critical acclaim and had us grasping our faces screaming “holy shit this was so good.” Unfortunately, this year it hit many faults and couldn’t escape the quicksand of its own plots – trying to do too much mystery and drama all at once with Sandbrook and the trial of the original case. As we draw to a close, we all wait with bated breath, in hope that it could reclaim its greatness.

And do you know what? Whilst a little lacklustre, it really did.

I Survived a Zombie Apocalypse "Episodes 1 & 2" Review

by Gemma Williams

The BBC have decided to capitalise on that popular supernatural genre: Zombies. The way they have done this, as a reality game show, is a bizarre concept. But how many of you think you could survive a zombie apocalypse, or would revel in the chance to find out? Well now you can.

The Musketeers "Through A Glass Darkly" Review (Spoilers!)

2/23/2015

by Helen Langdon

If you were to watch this episode of The Musketeers on iPlayer, you’d be warned beforehand that it’s only for over 16s, due to its disturbing imagery. And they mean it, with this episode’s plot seemingly ripped from a horror movie, featuring a psychopath’s deadly coin tossing game and more deaths than a trap in Saw.

The episode started innocently enough, with Louis playing with the Dauphin, embarrassing Anne and educating the court, all with one demonstration of the upcoming eclipse. Then Rochefort invited the court to view the eclipse at a local observatory, which turned out to be the worst plan ever as their host started killing people left, right and centre, forcing the king to choose who to kill and playing games with the lives of the courtiers.
