Quantum Leap Episode Review: Season One, Episode 14, “S.O.S.”

For this episode, Ben needed Al. And got Addison, who was in the army… …and Brandon Routh. I was spoilered on this by large numbers of people going squee Brandon Routh. (More spoilers follow). He was playing Addison’s father. Last episode was for Ben to deal with his mommy issues…

The Ark Episode Review: Season One, Episode Five “One Step Forward, Two Steps Back”

Because inertia doesn’t exist, we’re still trying to get up to near light speed. Sigh. This episode, at least, is more about the people than the science. The murder investigation continues. Lane is trying to get Garnet removed from command now he knows she’s a clone (which he found out…

The Flash Episode Review: Season Nine, Episode Four “The Mask of the Red Death, Part One”

At the start of this episode, I turned to my husband and said “It’s not our Ryan Wilder.” And I called it. She is the hero of her own story (and attempts to convince Iris of this, which doesn’t work well; Iris is a journalist, after all). …

Thoughts on That Ferengi Admiral

Star Trek fans aren’t always huge fans of change. The design change to the Klingons in Discovery season one was so unpopular they awkwardly found a way to reverse it. Another design change has also gotten some negative attention, and it has to do with this guy. As you can…

Quantum Leap Episode Review — Season One, Episode 13 “Family Style”

Don’t watch this episode while hungry. Or without having just eaten, because by the end of it… Yeah, it’s a restaurant episode. More than that, it’s an Indian restaurant episode. Ironically, I watched it while eating Chinese. Go figure. It’s also a deeply personal episode for Ben. At the start…

Star Trek: Discovery Episode Review — Season Four Episode Six “Stormy Weather”

This is Discovery back on form and back in the spirit of TOS, with one bobble that I have to bitch about. The ship and crew are investigating the subspace rift left behind by the anomaly and get stuck. Trapped in spatial rift episodes are nothing new. I was actually…

Star Trek: Discovery Episode Review — Season Four, Episode Five “The Examples”

This show can get a bit dark at times, and “The Examples” plunges us into some interesting territory. The DMA changed course towards an asteroid belt, which contains a small former Emerald Chain colony, mostly occupied by Akaali. It may or may not hit, but Discovery flies to evacuate the…

Review: Beyond the Father by Opeshum Patroz

This book is being marketed as science fiction, but feels like fantasy. Until you understand that it is science fiction with a decidedly different view of the world. Call it science fantasy, because gods are characters and reincarnation is stated as truth. It’s intricate, a little confusing, and very much…
