This His Dark Materials review is spoiler-free. It was originally published on Den of Geek UK. Current wisdom teaches that the age of family home viewing is over; parents and kids no longer crowd around the TV in a tumble of wet-from-the-bath hair, pyjamas and shushing.

This South Park review contains spoilers. South Park Season 23 Episode 5 What’s fun about South Park Halloween episodes is how (not unlike The Simpsons before them), they take Halloween pretty seriously.

Diablo is going mobile with Diablo Immortal. Described as a “full-fledged action RPG,” Diablo Immortal will serve as direct follow-up to Diablo II: Lord of Destruction.

I feel like everyone has a Jack Kirby. Every artist working at a consistent, Big 2-level in comics, when asked to contribute something that looks like Jack Kirby art, can submit a piece that looks similar to what the King did, even if only two or three people can make something that could plausibly pass

This Mr. Robot review contains spoilers. Mr. Robot Season 4 Episode 4 Happy holidays from Mr. Robot, which seems as unconcerned as ever with actually wrapping up any aspect of its final season’s story.

Impulse snuck up on us as science fiction fans running a podcast.

As a concept, the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise is something I both love and hate at the same time. On one hand, it’s a killer idea with a charismatic villain, awesome set pieces, dark humor, and over-the-top violence. On the other hand, it’s a completely broken idea.
