Josh Reviews the Triumphant Return of Party Down!
I’d never heard of Party Down during the two seasons it was on the air, on Starz, in 2009-10. But after it was cancelled, I started reading about it. I finally watched the show in 2011, and I fell immediately in love with this brilliant, hilarious show. I tore through those
Josh Reviews Star Trek: Picard Season Three — Part One
I had started to doubt it could ever be possible, but they’ve actually made a modern live-action Star Trek TV show that I don’t hate! (I wrote “live-action” because, while I have been hugely disappointed in almost every modern Star Trek series, including Disc

Josh Reviews Girls5Eva Seasons One and Two!
Soon after watching We Are Lady Parts, I decided to move on to another Peacock comedy show about a musical group comprised of four women: Girls5Eva! Both are terrific shows, although they’re very different. Girls5Eva is a much sillier, zanier show. It was created by Meredith
