Josh Reviews Into the Unknown: The Making of Frozen II
Not long after I finished watching Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian, my entire family and I watched and enjoyed another Disney+ “making-of” series: the six-episode Into the Unknown: The Making of Frozen II. This six-episode series, directed by Megan Harding, is an incredibl
Josh Reviews Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian
I loved the first season of The Mandalorian on Disney+, and I cannot wait for season two! To help bide the time, Disney+ has released an eight-episode behind-the-scenes look at The Mandalorian, called Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian. (It’s a wordy title that doesn’t re
Josh Reviews 30 Rock: A One-Time Special
A silver lining of coronavirus’ tremendous disruption of TV and film production has been the reunion shows I never expected to see. I loved the Parks and Recreation special, and now here comes something else I never expected to see: a new installment of 30 Rock! 30 Rock: A One
Josh Reviews Barry Seasons One and Two
Early on during our social isolation, my wife and I caught up with the HBO series Barry. Bill Hader stars as the titular Barry, a former marine turned hitman who attempts to recreate himself after accidentally walking into an acting class and being mistaken as a prospective studen

Matt Groening’s animated Netflix series, Disenchantment, doesn’t seem to me to have made much of an impact on the pop-culture scene. And, let’s be honest, Disenchantment isn’t The Simpsons. It doesn’t come near to approaching that series’ trans
Josh Reviews The Spy
Netflix’s six-episode mini-series The Spy tells the true story of Eli Cohen, an Israeli spy in Syria in the 1950’s. This was one of my favorite series of 2019, but I realized I’d never finished & posted my full review — time to remedy that! I watched all
Just Reviews Stumptown Season One
I enjoyed the first episode of Stumptown, and I’m pleased that I continued to enjoy the subsequent seventeen episodes of this first season. Stumptown is based on the fantastic comic book series written by Greg Rucka and illustrated by first Matthew Southworth and then Justin
Josh Reviews the Fourth and Final Season of Brockmire
Hank Azaria’s series Brockmire has consistently been one of my very favorite shows these past few years. (Season three was one of my favorite TV shows of 2019.) Each eight-episode season has been a small slice of pure pleasure. The series is fiercely hilarious while also t
