Review: Netflix’s ‘Wednesday’ – Creepy, Kooky, and Fantastic

In the 1960s, two shows with similar premises came out around the same time, mashing family-friendly with scary and bizarre. The Munsters, which followed a family of classic monsters, and The Addams Family, a creepily macabre but equally hilarious family, both ran for two seasons.

Review: ‘The Santa Clauses’ Premiere Episodes

Never in my wildest dreams did I think that at 30 years old, I would be talking about a sequel series to a film that came out during my childhood. The Santa Clause came out in 1994, which was almost three decades ago, and already has two sequels in the franchise. When The Santa Clauses 3: The Escape Clause came out

Review: ‘Limitless with Chris Hemsworth’

Arriving later this week on Disney+, Limitless with Chris Hemsworth explores a subject that most people come into conflict with at least once in their life, aging.
