Is it just me, or is Selling the OC actually better than Selling Sunset now? I’ve always preferred this spin-off maybe it’s the mix of personalities or the coastal vibe but Season 4 really sealed the deal for me. There’s still drama (because, of course), but it’s toned down compared to past seasons, and the office dynamic feels more…

NOBODY WANTS THIS SEASON 2: PROOF THAT NOT EVERY SHOW NEEDS A SEQUEL
When I heard Nobody Wants This was getting a second season, I wasn’t convinced it needed one and after watching, I’m still not. It feels like the show’s trying to recapture the spark of season one but forgot to bring the story with it. Nothing really happens this time around, and what does happen feels forced. Joanne…

If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably noticed the same films appearing on every “Top 10” list ever.

As someone who watches a lot of films (maybe too many, if you ask my friends),…

This Saturday, I’ll be on the London Film Festival red carpet to meet the man himself the director who gave us School of Rock, Before Sunrise, and Boyhood now returning with something completely different: his…

Written and co-starring Dan Blick, Castles explores personal growth through the lens of a romantic relationship. The play begins with Jonny and Rain meeting at a party, and from there, we follow their journey through the highs…
LOVE UNDER THE HOOD: A FRESH SPIN ON A CLASSIC CONNECTION — MAINTENANCE REQUIRED REVIEW
Maintenance Required is the modern-day You’ve Got Mail but with cars, torque, and a dash of feminist flair and honestly, it really works. The story follows Charlie (Madelaine Petsch), a strong and independent woman who runs an all-female auto shop in a tight-knit community. When a sleek, corporate garage opens across the street, her world is thrown…
