A Guide to Super Saiyan Green
Super Saiyan Green is one of the more obscure transformations of the Dragon Ball universe. There's no official designation for Super Saiyan Green from Toei Animation, as there are for Super Saiyan Red or Blue, but there are two main states that "Super Saiyan Green" could be referring to. The first is the state of a full power Super Saiyanthat Legendary Super Saiyans can access, and the second is a transformation that Goku and Vegeta have yet to fully explore.

A Guide to Super Saiyan Blue
The Dragon Ball franchise goes hand-in-hand with wild, over-the-top animation. With a premise like it has—of the Saiya-jin striving to be the strongest in the universe—it lends itself pretty easily to that style of animation. From its extreme fight scenes that span universes and the summoning of giant dragons, the series is filled with captivating visuals and action unparalleled.

Can 'Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists' Recapture the Magic?
From 2010 to 2017, Pretty Little Liars was the queen of teen television. The show popularized live-tweeting, influenced fashion trends, and kept a legion of devoted fans—both teens and adults—tuning in week after week to find out who the mysterious A was. Now, once again, some of TVs favorite liars are back on the small screen with the new spin-off Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists. While the spin-off features two fan favorite characters from the original, Alison and Mona, it remains to be seen whether or not Perfectionists can recapture the success of its mothership.

A Guide to Super Saiyan Red
It seemed like Goku had reached his peak with his firsttransformation into a Super Saiyan in his battle with Frieza after Krillin's death—but he just kept pushing. Forever striving to get stronger and to fine tune his skills, Goku starts by defeating Frieza in glorious battle; his most admirable trait prevailing again. It seems like, with every new challenge comes a new power level, and since Dragon Ball Z is such a long running series, they've certainly added up. Understandably, with all these levels, it can become difficult to differentiate between each Super Saiyan transformation, especially when Goku becomes so strong he can be considered a deity. With this massive range though, it's easy to forget which level is stronger than which, how each level is attained, and even how it affects the individual's ability to fight.

'RuPaul's Drag Race' S11 Week Five Power Rankings
This week just solidifies for me that we will have to suffer for the next few weeks of meaningless eliminations to really thin out the herd, before the competition becomes stiff. After last week, I thought that maybe some queens would be able to prove themselves as legitimate threats, by stepping out of their comfort zones, and while some of them very clearly did (Nina, Scarlet, and Ra'Jah), Ru chose to highlight the same queens that have been given high placements frequently. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, as Yvie, Brooke, and Plastique are all fan favorites with plenty of potential to go far, but it does cause many queens to continue to fade into the background. I had hope that this week could really even out the playing field a little bit, but instead, it reaffirmed the queens who are going to be here long-term, which may work out well in the end, when we get into Top five to seven territory and only the very best are left.

Name That Theme Tune
With the explosion of streaming services, media, and bingeable or downloadable content shows that are watched by the masses are rare. The like of Games of Thrones or Walking Dead—both which I do not watch—are not as common as they were in the seventies, eighties and into the nineties.

A Review of 'Secret City' Season 2 Episode 6 - "Two Cheers for Democracy"
The season closer begins with a big question—will Harriet (Anna Torv) find the USB stick and reveal the full extent of illegal drone strike program? The whitewashed version as it stands is that Pakistan hacked the drone. The fuming PM (Don Hany) has no choice but to expel the Pakistani ambassador (Dalip Sondhi) and surely he must explode in a frenzy of recriminations soon. In the meantime, he is watching Eisenhower speeches on youtube and getting psyched up. He now knows he is being stitched up by the unholy trinity of the Minister of Defence (Joel Tobeck), the US ambassador (Christopher Kirby) and Trebuchet the drone supplier, as represented by the mystery man (Michael Denkha).

Is Heartbreak Around the Corner for #Olicity Fans?
Felicity Smoak has been a fan favorite since she debuted in the first season of Season 1 of Arrow as the IT specialist with a knack for saying the wrong things. Though not intended to be a series regular, Emily Bett Rickards, the actress who portrays the witty wifi goddess, brought such a spark to the character that she was written into the series.
