Josh Reviews Coyote vs. Acme!
Coyote vs. Acme depicts a delightfully playful notion: after years upon years of having his efforts to catch the Roadrunner foiled by faulty Acme products, Wile E. Coyote decides to sue the Acme company. To do so, he enlists the aid of down-on-his-luck lawyer Kevin Avery (Will Forte
Josh Reviews The Bear Season Five
The Bear season five brings the show to a strong, satisfying conclusion. Even today, when it’s more common for shows to end in the time and manner of their creators’ choosing (as opposed to when I was younger, when most shows were either cancelled before their time, or dragged o

Josh Reviews Supergirl
Supergirl, written by Ana Nogueira and directed by Craig Gillespie, carries forward the new DCU continuity kicked off in last summer’s Superman, which was written & directed by James Gunn. When we meet this version of Supergirl — Kara Zor-El — played by Milly A
