The Review at the End of the Universe
“A Sort of Homecoming” The 100 returns to familiar surroundings and has the characters consider what they want to call home. If the final season of The 100 were to be defined by one thing it would be wasted time. Despite the dwindling episode count the writers seem oddly content to waste time haphazardly exploring…
“Blood Giant” The 100 returns from another hiatus and reunites much of the cast in a single location while addressing the various plot threads at play. For some of the runtime of this episode there was an old school The 100 vibe to it in terms of it being a frenetic crisis that was challenging…
Craig recently had the opportunity to talk to Tim Sheridan; writer of the new DC animated movie Superman: Man of Tomorrow. They discuss his approach to familiar characters, playing with well known lore and generally being a fan of the source material Show Notes Tim’s IMDb page Tim’s Twitter account Craig’s review of Superman: Man…

This season has been massively consistent in overall quality as my previous reviews have outlined but among the consistently excellent elements of it have been JR Bourne’s performance as Sheidheda…
“The End is At Hand” and “What We’re Fighting For” Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. wraps up the series for good with a double bill of episodes and a final mission for the enduring team to bring down their Chronicom foes. This season has been generally a strong final outing for the team with some fun…
“Etherea” The 100 reveals the fate of Bellamy and chronicles an arduous journey to the summit of a mountain. Reports of Bellamy’s death being greatly exaggerated shouldn’t really be a surprise to anyone watching the show at this point. The scene where he appeared to die was deliberately staged with a wormhole directly behind him…
“Brand New Day” Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. gears up for the end of the show with a large scale threat to the timeline and a plan to be unpredictable. The end is nigh and the characters know it. Among Enoch’s dying words to Daisy was that the current mission would be their last and the…
