REVIEW: It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia – Season 16, Episodes 1-3
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is finally back after a shortened season 15 and a nearly two-year hiatus with the first three episodes of season 16. Was the wait worth it? Is the magic that has kept this show going for so long still there? Are “The Gang Inflates,” “Frank Shoots Every Membe...
Read MoreREVIEW: The Flash (2023)
I’m not sure I’d call The Flash a mixed bag; that implies a fairly equal good-to-bad ratio, and The Flash is more bad than good by a wide margin. And what’s bad is abysmal, not only embracing many of the grating modern superhero movie tropes but hooking them up to rockets and shooting them int...

But Spider-Verse single-handedly initiated a paradigm shift in the landscape of American animation....
