5 Day TV Challenge: Day 1- I Broke Bad in 7 Hours
I binged watched Breaking Bad in one sitting. No regrets, man. But it's the start of an addiction Breaking Bad is one of the highest rated shows on IMDB, a lot of my friends who are in to science loved this show (wooh and guess what? Didn't bother to talk me into it) and I finally decided to watch it because it's the first one to appear in the search box. This show is just brilliant. For the first season, it has a reasonable 7 episodes, which is nice just to introduce the characters to us. In Season 1, Walt doesn't really have that much time on his hands here, so it's perfectly understandable why his attitude can change so drastically over a little period of time. The dude is experiencing shit(incurable lung cancer, he's seen some shit, did some plenty of amazing things, but when he finally started to break bad, that's probably how he began living his life, yo. It's not a great way of living, but time is scarce for him, so even though he's got so much at stake, he still welcomed the idea of earning easy money from his chemistry skill.

Why Steve Harrington Has Been a Great Character from the Start
So in the past few months since the release of season two of Stranger Things, new light has been shed on supporting character Steve Harrington. He's gone from the douchey boyfriend with a great head of hair to the hilarious and protective babysitter, with a great head of hair sponsored by Farrah Fawcett Spray. Everyone is now in love with Steve and are apologizing for hating him in season one, which is great, but here's the thing; he wasn't the bad guy in season one.

'Fear the Walking Dead'
I didn't used to like zombie movies or television shows. I tried to watch The Walking Dead but couldn't seem to get into it like all my friends did. I watched World War Z and liked it a lot, even though it wasn't like the book. I'm not one to usually complain when the book and movie don't match; I understand creative differences as such. I decided, one day, to watch Z Nation, and that one really piqued my interest. One day while scrolling through the TV listings, I came across Fear The Walking Dead, but I didn't put two and two together on that one at all. I didn't bother reading the show description. I thought it was a documentary on why people are scared of a zombie apocalypse or something.

30 Days of Thanksvember: What Truebies Are Thankful For
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! In the spirit of the season, I am thankful for True Blood, which ended on Thanskgiving. Every day in November, the folks at True-Blood.net shared something about True Blood and the Sookieverse that made them thankful. It's pretty much what I loved about this site. They are dedicated to True Blood from the very beginning, until the very end.

'Twin Peaks' Revisited: Introduction
2017 has been an amazing year for Twin Peaks. Twenty six years after the original series ended, Twin Peaks returned triumphantly to the pop culture landscape, bigger in scope and bolder in execution, in the form of two novels and an 18 part TV series. For many in its community of fans, Twin Peaks never really went away; the time between has been spent pondering on its many unsolved mysteries, intuiting its narrative and thematic meanings, and being inspired by its creativity. As one of those fans, I was hugely excited for Twin Peaks comeback, not just to see how the narrative would continue and how the series would look & feel in today's TV landscape, but because this time around I'd actually get to be part of the water-cooler experience; I was too young to watch when the original aired, and now I'd get to be part of the mystery as it unfolded. As a wonderful effect of this, I got to enjoy it with the larger fan community on Twitter, meeting lots of lovely people and being introduced to many websites and podcasts that only enhanced my experience of The Return.
