Back in the day, we used to watch Mad Men when it was on TV on a week-by-week basis, but by around Season 5 things were too f*cked up, and there didn't seem to be much redeeming value to the main characters, so we slowly fell off.  This year, being the completionist that I am, I wanted to watch the seasons I had missed out after 2010(?) when we stopped watching. Spoilers obviously, but then again

Well now... after completing the first Cobra Kai game, I thought I'd continue with the sequel, Dojos Rising.  I was doing pretty well with this game, but after a few frustrating weekends, I decided that this was going to be a Did Not Finish kind of game for me.  Pronounced DNF on March 22 😹The game essentially picks up after the first game ends, and somewhere in Season 4 (?) of the series.

Back in the day, when "multimedia PCs" were new, and I had just returned from Greece, I used to spend a lot of time (relatively speaking) on Saturdays at Tower Records on my way to the Public Library. It was truly a multimedia wonderland, with music (in various formats), videos (also in various formats), and different types of video games (mostly of the computer games variety, I don't recall seeing

Continuing on with my vintage sci-fi binge (this might be the last one for now...until I discover more), today I present to you William Shatner's TekWar.This series started life as a series of novels written by Shatner, or written by Ron Goulart, who seems to be uncredited and Shatner lending his name to them for exposure/promotional purposes...Anyway, it seems like Shatner, after Star Trek, just needed

Welp, Stranger Things is officially concluded!If you haven't seen any of the series...why are you reading this post? I am nor responsible for spoilers ;-)  That said, the final season was fine.  I think that the show "lost" something by having the final three seasons being release every three years.  The first three seasons kind of flowed together, despite the 2018 "break" between seasons

During the winter break I picked up "The Matrix: Path of Neo" for the PS2. The PS2 is a generation of consoles that I totally missed.  I remember playing the PS1 at friend's houses, then those friends went to Sega's Dreamcast for the subsequent generation of consoles, so the PS2 is a total mystery to me.  Since this game isn't backward compatible on the xbox (it also shipped on the OG xbox),

Over the last few years, I've been looking for older sci-fi shows  to watch. This is was a short (13 episode) quirky buddy-cop/sidekick series. Automan is short for "Automatic Man."  One of the series protagonists, Walter Nebicher, creates an artificially intelligent crimefighting computer program that generates a hologram (Automan) able to leave the computer world at night and fight

This was my November binge. It was a short series, so it was a short two week binge, but still a binge. Having played some of Cyberpunk on the xbox one at some point this year, I thought I'd give this a try.  The game was fine, but I was having a hard time getting into it. Maybe the pacing was off, maybe I was too impatient, but I got stuck somewhere early on in the game (after you learn

I saw the entire series in October 2025, mostly to be a completionist about the NCIS universe series.  This series has no raison d'être. It feels stiff, and do we really care about these two characters when they are separated from the NCIS pack?So, what is this series about?  Well, after Ziva resurfaces in 2020, she goes to Paris to meet with Tony and Tali (their kid).  Tony is now

Since it's October, and I live in Salem, why not binge something Witchy?  I came across the Mayfair Witches recently, so this seemed like a good October series to binge.The core plot revolves around Rowan, a medical doctor who is a witch, but doesn't know it. When her mother is in distress, her power manifest themselves (surprise, I guess?), which gets the Talamasca's hackles up.  They are
