Rent: Live may have proved that the 21st century iteration of the live TV musical is a failed experiment, and we try to figure out where it all went wrong. Consumers in the global community need to be more conscious about their access to content, but what part does privilege play? And the horrific R. Kelly documentary leaves us feeling helpless abo…

Feeling walked all over by The Walking Dead, Mitch needs his traumatic TV deaths to be real and permanent - he definitely should not attempt to watch Supernatural any time soon. Speaking of SPN, Natalie is feeling some frustration with storytelling in general - or rather, the growing lack of trust that audiences seem to have in the structure of ser…

The exhaustion of a Hollywood assistant, the commitment to volunteering for a charity and the shaming of a working actor all lead to a long reflection on what we owe to each other, whether it comes to the service industry, the sad state of the world or the entitlement of human nature.

Tremors (1990) is a cult classic that Karen loves more than should be possible.

Heavy is the head that wears The Crown, especially when it comes to light that our glorious Elizabeth Regina, Claire Foy, isn't worth as much to Netflix as her whiny husband. That's gotta be some deeply ironic sort of treason. Also in gripes, Brittany is furious about being emotionally manipulated by The Bachelor - a show that none of us watch - an…
