    I was planning on binging the season once it was over, but playing the Mr. Robot iOS game put me in the mood to dig in, and now I just hit episode 7, and wow. And the opening 15 minutes of episode 6. Without reading specific things about the season, I was getting a general…

    Halt and Catch Fire is my favorite still airing series (all-time fave award goes to Twin Peaks), and Iā€™ve been soooooo excited for the start of season 3. Iā€™ve only watched the first episode, and although it starts off a bit slow, I so loved the Jobs-like presentation at the end. Canā€™t wait to see…

    I love Louis C.K. so damn much, no matter what he does, and some of the most enjoyable stand-up routines Iā€™ve ever seen were in of his past specials. I just watched this – itā€™s now available on Netflix – and was surprised that I felt a bit disappointed. Donā€™t get me wrong, I still…

    This show is fantastic. Iā€™m three episodes in (of the six episodes we can currently watch, with the second half coming out at a later date), and Iā€™m just so in love with the cast and awesome music – well, pretty much all of the music, I just donā€™t care for theĀ ā€œmodernā€ hip-hop that opens…

    I finally got around to watching the second half of Ghibliā€™s Ronia series, produced by Hayao Miyazakiā€™s son, Goro Miyazaki. The entire series is made up of 26 episodes, and I had reallyĀ loved the first half. As I wrote back then, there are times where the cel shaded CG can feel a bit, well, CG,…

    Iā€™ve finally gotten around to watching this (something Iā€™ve been meaning to do for what feels like forever), and binged almost all of it over the weekend (Iā€™m on episode 9 now, of 10). I knew it was something I was going to like, based on everything Iā€™d read about it, and it even surpassed…

    After watching the original series and then the Thunderbolt series, I decided to watch this OVA series that came out in the early 90s. As the number in the title suggests, it takes place 3 years after the 1-year-war of the original series, and sets up what we end up seeing more of in the…

    Oh god I loved this show, excessively so. We watched it the weekend it came out, and are already feeling sad that thereā€™s no more to watch – and that if they do make a season 2, that itā€™ll take at least a year to happen. Iā€™m a child of the 80s, and this is…

    Itā€™s no Easbound and Down, but based on the first episode, I think Iā€™m going to dig this series also. I really like Walton Goggins too, so itā€™s pretty great to see him here, doing a proper comedy (instead of just being funny in dramas). The Bill Murray cameo was pretty nice as well, but…

    Watching this series, which was released online over the past year (and only counts 4 episodes that are each about 20 minutes long) immediately after finishing the original 1979 Mobile Suit Gundam was just amazing. It takes place in the same year as that original series (the year 0079, during the one year war), and…
