Josh Reviews Game of Thrones: Season Five!
I fell in love with Game of Thrones fairly early in its first season. I keep waiting for the show to falter, but I am continually impressed and amazed by this spectacular show which seems to continue building and deepening the characters and the world. No show in years has held me
Welcome Back, Darth Vader!
I just recently watched “The Siege of Lothal,” the one-hour second-season premiere of Star Wars Rebels. It’s a terrific episode, the best Rebels has done so far. The main reason why it’s so good? The welcome return of Darth Vader. And when I say the ret
“Bravo.” Josh Bids Farewell to Mad Men!
Mad Men season one was, I am pretty sure, the first TV show set I ever owned on blu-ray. It was a gift, given to me soon after I bought my first blu-ray player. At the time, I’d heard about but had never seen this new cable show, and also I wasn’t sure if I […]

I am slowly, slowly getting caught up with Breaking Bad! Click here for my review of season one and here for my review of season two. Much has been written about the way the Breaking Bad burns through story-lines, taking plot-lines that other shows would drag out for years and dispe
Late to the Party: Josh Reviews Fargo (The Series)
When I first read that Fargo, the wonderful Coen Brothers movie, was being adapted into a TV series, I was not remotely interested. Can you blame me? When is the last time a good movie was successfully turned into a TV show that was remotely worth one’s time? But then a fu
Josh Reviews The Jinx
HBO’s riveting six-episode true-crime documentary series, The Jinx, is one of the most compelling pieces of television I have seen in a long time. This is edge-of-your-seat television, and the twists and turns of the story are so staggeringly jaw-dropping because these things
Josh Reviews Star Wars Rebels Season One
The first twelve episodes of the first season of Star Wars Rebels were entertaining, good-not-great pieces of all-ages fun. The thirteenth and final episode of the first season was terrific and really made me sit up and take notice, and I started to get excited for the potential of
