Everything We Know About The Queer As Folk Reboot So Far Showtime By Miyako Pleines/Dec. 6, 2021 5:48 pm EST It’s time to get ready to head back to Babylon! “Queer as Folk” is coming back (hopefully) better than ever. Initially, a British TV show created by Russell T. Davies (mostly known for his “Doctor Who” fame, but who should always be remembered for his remarkable work on “Casanova” that left teenage me smitten with David Tennant years before I knew what a Dalek even was), “Queer as Folk” was eventually adapted for American audiences and became a long-running series on Showtime....

Home Sweet Home Alone Director Dan Mazer Wants To Subvert Your Expectations [Interview] Disney+ By Jacob Hall/Nov. 12, 2021 8:42 am EST If “Home Sweet Home Alone” feels like an inversion of the franchise’s formula… Well, that’s no accident.

Last Night In Soho Reveals The Thrilling Next Era Of Edgar Wright [Fantastic Fest] Focus Features By Jacob Hall/Sept. 26, 2021 2:54 pm EST The most exciting thing about “Last Night in Soho” is that it feels unlike any other Edgar Wright film, while being, unmistakably, an Edgar Wright film.

Kirk even helmed the U.S.S. Enterprise. The show benefited from being free of those constraints last season and also did the work of establishing what this future looks like, most significantly that the Federation has become weakened in the century after The Burn killed warp travel....

The ‘Loki’ Credits May Have Accidentally Revealed A Pretty Big Spoiler By Hoai-Tran Bui/June 16, 2021 7:53 am EST Major spoilers follow for the second episode of Loki.
