I don’t know what the hell goes on in the minds of the CBS suits, or why the hell they are dragging their heels about Supergirl’s future. But it doesn’t look good. Monday night at 8:00 I turned the television on to CBS, only to see that Big Bang Theory was on for the entire…
There’s something about team-ups that fascinate fans. And on the big screen, movies like Frankenstein Meets Dracula to Godzilla vs. King Kong, and AVP: Alien vs. Predator were all “can’t miss” affairs. Well, I actually did miss the last one, but it you get the idea. As I write this, the newest superhero blockbuster, Batman…
What is wrong with you people? Yesterday, I heard that CBS might not renew Supergirl for a second year, which generally happens to a television show because not many people are watching it and so I ask again, what is wrong with you? Itâs not like youâve got anything better to do with your Monday…
I have a friend who loved opera and music growing up, and now she sings in the chorus for the Metropolitan Opera. ThereâÂÂs something energizing when you witness someone leverage their passion and turn it into a wonderful and fulfilling career.

So it turns out that I maybe I do have a TARDIS, because I was able to finish watching Jessica Jones and to catch up on Supergirl. You remember that basically crappy review of Supergirl I gave a couple of months ago? Well, the show is getting there, though, im-not-so-ho, they arenât taking advantage of…
Geek Culture in popular media has some dark and grisly stories to tell. IâÃÂÃÂm talking about shows like Gotham, The Walking Dead, Deadpool and the upcoming Suicide Squad movie. But itâÃÂÃÂs a big tent with lots of room. CBSâÃÂÃÂs Supergirl show is on the other end of the spectrum. Supergirl is a positive, upbeat program…
Last week, after I submitted my column to Old Man Editor Mike Gold, I made myself a cup of English Breakfast tea, sliced up some mozzarella and cheddar cheese, grabbed some crackers and got into bed – this woman has to get up way before the first rays of the sun crack the horizon during…
(SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! Spoiler spoiler spoil spoil spoilery spoilers. Iâm chatting this week about the events on some of the superhero TV shows last week. If you recorded them and intend to watch them later, give this a pass. Here endeth the warning.) It was an interesting week in superhero TVland â specifically, DC…
Geek Culture has been buzzing about Star Wars: The Force Awakens to an overwhelming degree. It’s been a wonderful way to wrap up the year. Even with a focusing on the marketing, I’ve been talking about it on TV and in Entrepreneur Magazine. But the more I think I about it, the more I realize…
Cat Grant: One time at a party, Paul McCartney swore to me that he and Yoko were the closest of friends. He was more convincing. Cat Grant not accepting Kara Danvers’ statement that she (Kara) is not Supergirl Rey: There are stories about what happened. Han Solo: It’s true. All of it. The Dark Side….
So where are we and how’d we get here? An easy one to answer: we’re in the first week of 2016 – that’s SIXteen and don’t forget it when you write your next check. That’s the where and you can add a “when” to it. How’d we get here? Short answer: Continued breathing. It’s not…
First column of the new year. Weâre already over 1% through the year. Howâs it treating you so far? Switching gears from last week where I was reflecting on 2015, Iâve been thinking about what we have in store for us in the year to come. Upon pondering whatâs awaiting us over the course of…
