Shows To Binge Watch: Patriot
Patriot Streaming on Amazon Prime You know that person that constantly tells you that you HAVE to start watching Breaking Bad, because it’s SUPER good? Well I hate to do it, but this show makes me become that person. It’s one of those shows that many people probably haven’t even heard about, and if someone told them to watch it they’d say “yeah, maybe I’ll start it soon”...but then they don’t. I’ve been there, I get it. I’m going to do my best to explain why it’s a binge-wort

American Horror Story Review
It’s finally spooky season! Fall is here and I for one am happy about it. I can start wearing jeans and a flannel again, one of my favorite foods is soup, and I love scary movies/shows. If you enjoy scary, spooky stuff too and haven’t checked this show out, it’s probably time to crawl out from under that rock where you’ve been living, Patrick Star! American Horror Story first aired in October of 2011 and is currently on its 8th season. I know what you’re thinking…”WHAT!?! I n

Dead Cells Review
Publisher: Motion Twin Developer: Motion Twin Genre: Action Platformer (Roguelike) Reviewed On: Xbox One Available On: Xbox One, Playstation 4, Nintendo Switch, Microsoft Windows Dead Cells is difficult. The new title from French developer and (self-described anarcho-syndicalists) Motion Twin, is much more difficult than any game I’ve ever played. I originally missed the boat for the ‘Soulsbourne’ games (those games in the Souls series, and those that sought to mimic their su

Last Chance U Review
Streaming on Netflix Football is finally here! Don’t listen to the haters, preseason is important because every team gets hit with the injury bug and most of those second and third string players will have to step up. If you’re as excited about football as I am you’re probably spending all your free time playing Madden, watching highlights, and doing research to prepare for your fantasy draft. Well let me add one more thing to that list. Long story short, Last Chance U is a N

Elvis and Nixon Review
Starring Michael Shannon as Elvis Presley and Kevin Spacey as President Richard Nixon. Currently streaming on Amazon Prime with a Rotten Tomatoes score of 77%. After recently signing up for Amazon Prime, I was gleefully scrolling through its contents, adding things I've never seen as well as things I'd like to re-watch to my "watch list." It didn't take long for me to stumble across Elvis and Nixon which I rented on Redbox last year. Back then I didn't have my hopes up, but b

Master of None Review
Starring Aziz Ansari (Parks & Recreation) Seasons One and Two both streaming on Netflix. Earned a 100% review on Rotten Tomatoes with an average rating of 9/10. A couple of years ago, I was scrolling through Netflix in my college dorm room on another Tuesday night when I stumbled upon Master of None. I had recently finished watching the show Community and was looking to dive into a new show. I had previously seen Aziz Ansari perform multiple stand-up sets on Youtube and Netfl
