7 Short-Lived Shows That Deserved Better
With every new fall season, there is always the inevitable unknowing fate of which of our favourites will return, which new shows will find a place on our PVRs and, which ones just won't make the cut to live out their full season potential. And while yes, there have been many amazing series that have lived long and full lives, there have also been others who were fed dust when what they truly deserved was a meal or at the very least, an edible arrangement.

'Legends of Tomorrow' Review
DC’s Legends of Tomorrow is a spin-off starring characters from CW’s Arrow and Flash. The story involves time lord Rip Hunter (Arthur Darvill) working for an organization called the time masters. When an immortal tyrant named Vandal Savage (Casper Crump) murders his wife and son and conquers the Earth, the time masters refuse to help Rip stop Savage. Thus he goes rogue on his ship called the Waverider with his AI Gideon (Amy Louise Pemberton) and recruits a team to help him: an assassin named Sara Lance (Caity Lotz), a scientist with a suit that allows him to shrink named Raymond Palmer (Brandon Routh), both halves of a nuclear powered superhero known as Firestorm named Jefferson “Jax” Jackson (Franz Drameh), Professor Martin Stein (Victor Garber), the present-day incarnations of a duo known as Hawkgirl and Hawkman named Kendra Saunders (Ciara Renee) and Carter Hall (Falk Hentschel), and a pair of thieves named Mick Rory (Dominic Purrell) and Leonard Snart (Wentworth Miller). Together the team of outcasts and misfits work together to stop Savage and after blowing up the time masters take up their mantle in stopping time against others who mean to cause the timeline harm. Despite the fact that it has been around for only three seasons (shorter than both its sister shows), it has easily outdone both of them and has become the best of the four Arrowverse shows through compelling characters, strong villains, stellar writing, and good chemistry among each other.

Times When 'The Gilmore Girls' Is the Literal Worst
The Gilmore Girls is a lot of things to a lot of people. It is a happy, cozy show about familial closeness and the prettiness of New England weather. It is about friendships carrying you through hard times and helping you achieve your goals. It is a show about a mother and daughter, quirky and funny, and the life they lead among small-town nuttiness. It is, indisputably, a great show, much beloved, and worthy of a million rewatches.

Hidden in Plain Dialogue (Introduction)
Dragons: Race to the Edge is one of my top favorite Netflix series to binge. While the show is aimed at a much younger audience, much of the plot is engaging for people of all ages. There's something to be said about the pure genius of the lines of dialogue that are clearly meant to entertain the parents or older siblings watching the show with young children. One of my personal favorites is an exchange between Hiccup and Trader Johann in the "Have Dragon Will Travel Pt. 1" episode from season one. Hiccup is asking Johann why Heather, a lone dragon rider, is attacking and looting ships:

The 'Titans' Trailer Got Some Things Very Wrong
Just recently, I was introduced to the animated Cartoon Network series Teen Titans and instantly fell in love. The characters are likable and fully fleshed out. The stories are exciting and fun. It's one of those kids that doesn't talk down to it's young viewers. So, when I heard there was a live action TV series in the works, I got excited. Then I saw the trailer.

So, I have a lot of movies and shows that I love to watch, but I get really tired of seeing only straight people and straight relationships. Therefore, I love finding shows that have good LGBT characters. Here are some of the shows that I've found that have these good LGBT characters, for everyone who, like me, freaks out when they find these:

Why Does Everyone Like this Loud, Rude, Bully?
I’ve spent a majority of my life watching anime. It’s one of my longest running hobbies; it’s something that I really enjoy digging down into and discussing about on different levels of the show, characters, scenery, art, and more. I’m not afraid to tell people that I am very egotistical and pretentious most of the time with my own opinions and shows that I talk about, which is why I love engaging in conversation. So I want to start writing more about things like this, and I figure I can start off with a bang—literally—talking about a character named Bakugou Katsuki.

'Bojack Horseman' - Why I Love It and You Should Too
Bojack Horseman is my current favourite series. It could (and should) be yours too. Having finished off Westworld season two, and knowing that the next season of ANYTHING was a year away, I needed something new and exciting to watch during the ‘movie drought’ this summer.

Binge Worthy TV Shows . Top Story - September 2018.
After a full eight hours at the office, all I want to do is come home, watch TV with my boyfriend, and cuddle my dog. I have had too much "people time" and just need to be with my significant other and my puppy. I do not want to hear more problems, but I just want to sit in silence. So, with that, I made a list of TV shows that I find worthy enough to binge watch. I have watched a lot of TV series, so I cannot list all of them.

Oliver Queen: Hero or Villain?
Oliver Queen is a vigilante character on the television show Arrow. He became the crime fighter known as the Arrow after returning home from being trapped on a terrible island for five years and watching his father die. He is given a list from his father just before he dies, which tells Oliver about all the people in his home city that are secretly committing felonies and getting away with it. Oliver promises to hunt down every name on his father’s list and bring them to justice, which usually involves murdering the person. He does a lot of good for his city and helps protect it from many dangers throughout the show, however, he is still technically a criminal. Although Oliver Queen is not the typical criminal, many theories of criminology can still be applied to him.
