To the point
Hello and welcome to The Dart for Janet King: A Sticky Wicket. Having now gotten the only cricket-related expression I know out of the way, let’s dive in. I have some critical things to say about this episode, so I’m going to start by saying something nice. Here it is: out of all the shows…
Hello and welcome back to Wentworth for an episode with more lesbian drama than a drunken women’s rugby team after losing a match. Even the parts that weren’t strictly “gay” centered around gardening and welding, so the whole episode felt a little like being in a fight with my girlfriend at a hardware store (HOW…
Well too goddamn much stuff happened in this episode, if you ask me, so we’re gonna go through this the fastest way I know how: OOPS ALL PICTURES. We pick up right where we left off last week, with the nice BPO guy having been art-ed to death in the Rembrandt museum. I GOTTA ESCAPE…
Hello and welcome back to Wentworth. This was an episode of goodbyes to beloved characters and treasured possessions. But you know what they say: when god closes a door, he opens a vent in the ceiling, and if you climb on a coffee table, you can jump right in. So last week, Joan Ferguson cut…
Man, that was a fun episode! “Joy” is really the best thing Sense8 has to offer: both the joy of its characters and the numerous opportunities they are given to just be happy (in sex, music, and fireworks), and the joy of a team of incredibly talented visual artists given a whole world to play…
There was a moment during The Originals season four premiere when I yelled “make out with each other” at two women on screen. This is not in itself unusual. What is unusual is that now, seven episodes into the season, the two women in question actually did. Woah. Did we… Did we just make out…
The only person I know in real life who loves Wentworth as much as I do is my mother, and what she loves most about it is Joan Ferguson. Joan is, as she has told me several times, “the finest villain in the history of television.” She is not alone in this opinion. Wentworth’s writers…
Watch it or honestly I will think less of you. Watch it because it’s the bare minimum, and lucky for you, the bare minimum comes in the form of a gorgeously photographed piece of entertainment starring Peggy from Mad Men. (Elisabeth Moss has become the mountaineer of portraying the female condition, and if you thought watching…
Hello and welcome to the second season of Sense8 recaps, here in their new home on the The Dart. I’m going to try something new with these recaps this time around, so bear with me a moment while I explain it. In the past few years, Netflix has given us, the TV viewing public, a…
Man, that was a good episode. Not the best episode, not one of the episodes that leave you sobbing on the floor, but solid. Let’s jump right in. So last week, Sonia Stevens got a brief taste of freedom, but was felled, like so many women before her, by a deceitful man and an overlarge…
