  • Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (Season 2)

    I’m about halfway through this new season, and so far it’s just as good as the first one, dammit. God I love this show and these characters, and the quick fire pacing, and the jokes, and the everything (and yeah, that opening theme song still just the best). In the first episode, I also loved…

  • Ajin (Anime)

    I recently wrote about really getting into the Ajin manga, and now that I’m all caught up we get an anime series that debuted today on Netflix (although it originally aired in Japan at the start of the year). I’ve watched the first two episodes, and I’m really digging it, but that’s maybe because I…

  • FLCL

    With the news coming out this past week that two new seasons of FLCL are going to get made, my first reaction was that I felt it wasn’t really something that needed to happen – instead, why not give these people the opportunity to do something new. My other reaction was a desire to re-watch…

  • And Then There Were None

    This mini-series that adapts the Agatha Christie novel couldn’t have come out at a better time, as it was just after I went to a really enjoyable Agatha Christie exhibition here in Montreal, and so I was primed to get back to reading some of her books (I’ve become a big fan of her books…

  • House of Cards

    I watched the first season of House of Cards when it was originally released, and quite enjoyed it, but then for some reason never got around to watching the following seasons, even though I did have an interest in doing so. While I was hit with the flu a couple of weeks ago, I binged…

  • Boku Dake ga Inai Machi

    As I said, I was on the lookout for some new anime to watch the other day, and when I got to checking out a list of shows currently airing (here), this only series that sounded interesting to me was Boku Dake ga Inai Machi (the English title is Erased). I immediately checked out the…

  • Puella Magi Madoka Magica

    The other day I mentioned on Twitter that I was feeling the itch to watch some new anime, and when I mentioned this to my wife, she recommended (again) that I watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica (Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magika). My wife doesn’t really watch much anime, especially new stuff, but this was a series that…

  • The Walking Dead

    I’ve read the comic series from the very beginning, and only decided to stop reading following the release of last month’s #150 – I’d been growing bored of the series, but I might revisit it later on through trades. As for the TV show, I’ve liked it on and off, but had stopped watching it…

  • Horace and Pete

    I’ve only watched the first episode – the second episode just dropped – but I’m so far really enjoying this new series from Louis C.K. He was already getting more dramatic than comedic with Louie, and this is definitely more on the dramatic side as well, although taped as a multi-camera sitcom would – and…

  • Shameless

    I don’t know why, but six seasons in, and I still love this series. It’s crass, the characters are all over the place, but I still can’t get enough of it, and I still get happy when a new season starts (like it did a few weeks ago). Damn Gallaghers.
