This week’s episode of My Hero Academia started off pretty much where it left off – and then took off like a rocket from there. While I was not happy we did not get amuch Class 1-A, I really appreciated the little moments they pepper in every once in awhile to show they are still […]
One of the best animated shows out there is FOX‘s Bob’s Burgers, the “little show that could” that finally caught on with the audience and it’s been no looking back since. The show continues to bring fresh ideas to the table and constantly build up the world around it. With each passing and improving season, […]
If you are like me, either most of your family lives very far (or in another country) or are working most of the holidays. Add to the fact that I was born and raised outside the U.S. so not exactly having the kind of connection with Thanksgiving as others do, and you can see how […]
In order to fill the emptiness left behind with the lack of ABC‘s Modern Family this week and in honor of Thanksgiving week, I decided to commemorate the things about the show that I am most thankful for. Quite honestly, there were too many so I settled on three core topics that really impact me […]
This week’s episode of My Hero Academia brings things up to the tipping point. Though it was the slowest episode so far, the ending saved it somewhat for me. Things seem to be picking up in our heroes’ world and it looks like the villains’ plans starting to take shape. Again, while a slower paced […]
This week’s episode of ABC‘s Modern Family hits “The Feels” with another last: Thanksgiving. It was a cute episode that started off a bit weak and had me worried, but ended up hitting all the right notes by the credits (and a nice end creditsscene). We do get some sense of closure as some characters […]
Once again, My Hero Academia Season 4 does not disappoint—quite the opposite actually. “Let’s Go, Gutsy Red Riot” was everything the otaku in me wished for and yet still found ways to surprise me. This episode was the perfect segue to start expanding the storyline. This season has done a great job so far at […]
The fourth episode of this season of My Hero Academia was truly an amazing one – and I will confess that it nearly had me sniffling. It was wonderfully paced, with writing and dialogue handled beautifully throughout. So far, they have done a great job with not over-doing it with exposition, adding in some excellent […]
I am incredibly happy to report that ABC‘s Modern Family actually took me pleasantly by surprise this week. Considering this season has run hot and cold so far, this was a strong outing. It seems they are setting up some groundwork as the episodes go by that might seem to hint at the future – […]
A new week means a new episode of ABC’s Modern Family. This season has definitely run hot and cold. However, no matter what they do I am sure not all of us will be happy with it how it ends. On my end, I am just looking for those moments of reflection and connection that […]
With this season’s fifth episode, ABC‘s Modern Family definitely lived up to expectations. Not only was it a fun episode, but it also made me nostalgic for the earlier seasons when the story and the characters were so on point that it made us actually feel. This episode really took me by surprise—it did not […]
Holiday episodes are always the best in ABC‘s Modern Family – and I especially look forward to the Halloween episodes. This episode’s name is giving me all the feels, however… I mean, we knew this day would come but I am not sure we were ever going to be prepared for the last one. The […]
With its third episode, My Hero Academia continues what’s looking to be a strong fourth season. First, I loved the way recaps were handled in this episode—actually, this season in general: it helps establish Deku’s growth as a character without just rehashing clips. While it may only last the span of three minutes, it did […]
I often struggle with two things: finding new anime that keeps me glued to the screen and finishing shows. Demon Slayer totally destroyed both of those issues. I could not stop watching and now I have spent the last day sulking around Crunchyroll because I don’t know what to do with myself or what to […]
Cartoon Network can do no wrong in my eyes. Just like Harry Potter, Cartoon Network has been a constant “friend” since I was a kid – introducing me to all my favorite cartoons and anime. When I grew up in the Dominican Republic, Cartoon Network used to play anime during the day, Mondays through Sundays […]
In an attempt to fill the hole in my television heart created by the lack of ABC‘s Modern Family this week, I decided to fill the void by gathering my favorite moments of the series. Quite honestly, there were too many so I settled for some-of-the-best moments of Modern Family. Otherwise I would keep you […]
The second episode of My Hero Academia season 4 “Overhaul”, did not hold back – building on the season opener and setting a great vibe for this season. It starts off packed with action with a confrontation between the villains, and then brings us back to U.A. to follow up on the Work Studies as […]
With this week’s episode of ABC‘s Modern Family Season 11, we are almost back on track with one of our favorite shows… almost. “Pool Party” pretty much followed 3-4 storylines, and while the outing was a vast improvement on earlier in the season – there’s still one ongoing problem that continues to annoy me with […]
In the interest of full disclosure, my knowledgebase tends to lean heavily more towards the film side – but after watching the second season opener to USA Network‘s The Purge, I’m finding myself gaining a better appreciation for the franchise. More importantly, I’m getting a better appreciation for the franchise’s entire universe – the most […]
Lacking for anime to fill your days with? I have this problem where I binge-watch anime for days and don’t know what to do with my life afterwards. Luckily, Netflix is one of those services that always seems to be there, to come to my aid and the one app that consistently works on my […]
