Throwback Thursday (Movie review): Frederick Wiseman’s documentary evokes nostalgia for days when principles were more than soundbites.
Turtle Tuesday (Comic book reviews): The first series is a strong look at April’s development in martial arts, but “The May East Saga” is dreck.
TV rankings: As a new era of television adaptations approaches, we rank the six series that have run for six episodes or more.
Sleuthing Sunday (TV review): But I can see what the creators were going for if the show hadn’t been canceled. And though not a purist Tommy and Tuppence, Walliams and Raine grew on me.
Sleuthing Sunday (Movie and TV reviews): Annis and Warwick are delightful but the stories are often confusing or thin.
Superhero Saturday (TV review): The MCU gives beloved B-list superheroes the A-list spotlight with its limited-series format.
Throwback Thursday (Movie review): We can see what this film could’ve been, but it’s too minor-league to reach its potential.
Turtle Tuesday (Comic book reviews): The introduction of Armaggon, a land shark from the future, spices up titles that had been lagging. I review “Adventures” 38-45 and “Mutanimals” 6-9.
Book club book report: The setting of a hotel carved out of a sanatorium should be evocative, but it’s written flat enough for cross-country skiing.
Sleuthing Sunday (Book review): Reprinted in 2018, the only novelization of an Agatha Christie movie is fascinating and bizarrely readable.
