The X-Files “My Struggle II” Leaves a Wicked Cliffhanger
So, I was coming home from a trip to Canada for Killjoys and Dark Matter (goodies coming this summer!) and found myself unable to watch The X-Files live Monday night. I started it in the Toronto airport, and was really glad I didn’t finish it there because I definitely would…

The X-Files “Babylon”
[Warning: Spoilers for “Babylon.”] When this episode went into production last summer, there was chatter that they might be setting up a spinoff.

The X-Files Preview: “Home Again”
[Warning: General spoilers ahead.] Tonight’s The X-Files is equal parts a monster of the week story and a trip down memory lane for the OG fans. If this one doesn’t net nominations for Gillian and David, the voters are dead inside. I’m guessing this would fall under a “limited series” now,…

Thank Me Later: Will Trent
[Warning: spoilers ahead.] I’m on record as loving and losing shows over at ABC so I’m usually very reticent to pick something up on the network until it’s been renewed, and I seriously hope I’m not jinxing it, but I took a chance on the deeply odd and very sweet…

What They Said: Top 4 Quotable Moments from Black Sails “XXIII”
The dialogue in “XXIII” is phenomenal. It’s always a fun ride when Black Sails carries its viewers along without giving them the chance to catch their breath. When an episode moves at this unforgiving pace, there is no chance for a breather nor is there a respite from the information…
