Thor: Ragnarok / Justice League / Crisis on Earth-X

I’m currently on a vacation at home – or as it called now: staycation – and on Monday I had lunch at one of my favourite Italian restaurants (Actually, it’s an Italian deli that also serves warm food and it’s soo good!). Upon driving home in the early afternoon I thought to myself: what a…

TV Junkie: A History

I watched a lot of TV shows over the years. And when I say a lot, I mean A LOT. And I watched accross the board. Keep in mind that I’m only 35 years old. I watched The Guiding Light for two years straight (it’s a soap opera whose German title was the Springfield Story)….

TV Season 2009/2010 Diary, CW 13-17

Deutsche Version | CW 13-16 | CW 18 Chuck 3×14 Chuck vs the Honeymooners I’ve enjoyed this episode very much. It had the typical Chuck mixture of fun and action the early seasons had. Sarah’s Texan impersonation was also very funny and I don’t think I have to say anything about her habit of walking…

TV Season 2009/2010 Diary, CW 13-14

Deutsche Version | CW 13 | CW 13-15 Doctor Who 5×01 The Eleventh Hour Ironically the first thing I noticed about the new series was that the TARDIS doors opened outwards which I can’t remember the ever doing before. The plot seemed pretty straight-forward, I can’t say there were any surprises for me (e.g. that…

TV Shows – A Decade in Retrospect

TV Season 2009/2010 Diary, CW 39-42

Deutsche Version | CW 41 | CW 42-43 Bones 5×04 The Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood I really enjoyed this episode with all its entanglements in suburbia and especially the bantering between Bones/anthropology and Sweets/psychology regarding the life there. Supernatural 5×05 Fallen Idols Kripke warned the viewers not to judge to quickly about the appearance…

Science-Fiction Mini Marathon

Deutsche Version It wasn’t planned as such, but in the last few weeks I have watched quite a number of Science-Fiction movies and a good part of them were “Doomsday” movies, so I might as well write a few words about them. Most of these movies are very, very US-patriotic but when you can accept…

Deep Space Nine: Season 2

Deutsche Version | Season 1 | Season 3 Disc 1 The Homecoming Synopsis: A new movement is growing on Bajor. They call themselves “The Circle” and they want “Bajor to the Bajorans”, i.e. all out-worlders should leave the bajoran system. Meanwhile Kira learns that Li Nalas – a hero of the resistance – is still…
