Why "Warrior Nun" needs to be your next binge watch. Top Story - December 2022.
Warrior Nun is one of the best Netflix originals the streaming giant has to offer. When I began watching its first season in July 2020, I had zero expectations going into it. I simply saw two words that I never associated being together and thought "huh! I wonder what kind of warrior shenanigans these nuns can possibly get into?"

Doctor Who: 1963: The Assassination Games Review
Back in 2013, Big Finish decided to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who with three stories set in 1963, the year of the launch of the programme. Each story featured a different Doctor from the 1980s, and the final story, specifically, saw the Seventh Doctor and Ace reunited with the Counter-Measures team, first introduced in the 1988 story "Remembrance of the Daleks" (itself designed to celebrate 25 years of Doctor Who), and who were given their own spin-off by Big Finish. In that sense, there's a lot going on in "The Assassination Games", and, as such, this is a very complex story with lots of strands to it. However, despite the complex plot and the weight of expectation on this release, "The Assassination Games" is a fantastic release that maintains a speed and pace that is perhaps unmatched by many Doctor Who stories, as well as balancing all the lead characters we know and love. In those regards then, this is an expectational story.

Andor Is One of the Few Disney Shows to Get Fascism Right
It’s hard to understate how shocked and happy I am that Andor exists. I have been banging a drum for years that Disney has been putting out programming that often appropriates the aesthetic of social change and revolution while advancing pretty regressive narratives (see my take on Black Panther and She-Hulk as examples).

The Mole: The Netflix Reboot
If you're unfamiliar with The Mole, I implore you to check out my previously published article here on Vocal detailing the early 2000s family whodunit show. It was ahead of its time, cryptic, at times hilarious, and borderline reality show perfection.

Wednesday - A review
I’m a grown man in his thirties, who never liked the horror genre in movies and who doesn’t care much for Tim Burton’s work either. Nor was I a fan of the original Addams Family movies or TV shows or cartoons or comics. Not particularly fond of teen dramas or goths, either.

21st Century Pride & Prejudice
How should I start this one off? If you are ever looking for an 160 episode Youtube web series adaptation of Pride & Prejudice, that won Youtube it's first ever Primetime Emmy Award, and takes about 12 hours to watch if you watch it all in one day like I did... then look no further than The Lizzie Bennet Diaries (2011-2013).
