One quick note before getting into the recap. On a bit of a time crunch this week, so this will be shorter than most recaps. Only going to hit the main points, and not much else, unfortunately. Should be back to the usual next week. Reward Challenge Divided into two teams of five, four of […]

‘Australian Survivor: Brains V Brawn’ Week 2 Recap
We’re back with another strong week of Australian Survivor. Lots of players get the chance to let their personalities shine, we’ve got blindsides, idols, big moves, and our first non-elimination episode of the season. Let’s get to it! Episode 4 Simon and Emmett are feeling the heat after seeing their close ally Gavin voted out. […]
Survivor South Africa: Immunity Island Episode 8 Recap
Ah, the Survivor merge episode. I’m sure I’ve noted this in other season recaps, but the merge episode is always highly anticipated, for several reasons. It signals a change in the game, shifting the focus to individual versus tribes. It’s a chance at new life for those on the outs, and a chance for big […]
‘Australian Survivor: Brains V Brawn’ Week 1 Recap
As the saying goes, “Be careful what you wish for.” After a year without Survivor, we now have two concurrently running seasons, with the U.S. not far behind. And not only that, but with the way Australian Survivor runs things, with multiple episodes each week, we have 4 episodes each week. Now, I love it, […]
‘Survivor South Africa: Immunity Island’ Episode 7 Recap
Zamba Qieän! She actually gets a confessional, saying she doesn’t feel like she has a place in the game. Which unfortunately feels way too accurate, as she hasn’t had a place in the edit. And then, that’s it? It immediately cuts to a completely different, unrelated conversation at camp. It was an odd edit choice, […]
BLACK WIDOW Review: A No Stakes Thrill Ride
Prequels have an inherent problem that no other movies do. Viewers already know the fates of the main characters. This is especially problematic in action movies, where the characters are in constant danger. This issue runs even deeper with Black Widow, the latest entry into the MCU – and first since SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME […]
Review Rundown: LUCA, ZOLA, NO SUDDEN MOVE
By all accounts, movies are back, so I’ve got to get back on that review train. I finally got around to F9 the other day, with (hopefully) many more to come. But there are several movies that I didn’t get to that I want to cover quickly while I still have the chance. LUCA Disney’s […]
‘Survivor South Africa: Immunity Island’ Episode 5 Recap
Vuna No preamble, let’s just jump right into this week’s Survivor SA episode. Thoriso is making moves to get herself out of the bottom of the Vuna tribe. She approaches Anesu about helping her convince Tyson to part with the parchment – just the parchment – for his idol, so she can try to convince […]
‘Survivor South Africa: Immunity Island’ Episode 4 Recap
After a week off, I’m back and raring to go for more Survivor SA. I was out of town for a wedding last weekend, and couldn’t find time to get a recap out once I got back. Hopefully you didn’t miss me too much. Camp raid We’ll start off at Zamba, as Dino reads Tree […]
‘Survivor South Africa: Immunity Island’ Episode 2 Recap
Before we get into this week’s Survivor SA episode, I have some corrections to make from last week’s recap. I had a couple mistakes with how Immunity Island worked. By accepting the Stay and Play option, you give up your vote regardless on whether or not you win the challenge. The first episode was a […]
