Doug Jones Looks Back on Saru's Long, Strange Star Trek Journey
Everyone’s been through a lot on Star Trek: Discovery. Evil Captains. Mirror Universes. Killer A.I.. Time travel to the far future. Spock with facial hair.

The Latest Expanse Offers Yet Another Ticking-Clock Adrenaline Rush
This week’s Expanse episode title is “Down and Out,” so you know everyone’s going to be feeling the hurt of what’s happened so far—and man, it’s been a lot.

Who Are The Stand's Heroes? Allow Them to Reintroduce Themselves
Whether you’re talking about Steven King’s book or the new CBS All Access show, The Stand is not a story that’s easily, or quickly, summarized. In a pinch though, it kind of boils down to a group of heroes, lead by Mother Abigail, and a group of villains, lead by Randall Flagg, battling for control of the world after…

The Expanse's Steven Strait on Holden's Evolution as a Leader
The Expanse is a show with an ensemble cast, but if you had to pick a “main character,” it would probably be James Holden. Played by Steven Strait, who’s also a producer on the show, Holden captains the Rocinante and has a unique connection to the dangerously mysterious protomolecule.

The 12 Best (And 6 Worst) Genre Movies of 2020
Here’s how weird 2020 was for movies: Unless you saw something in January or February (like The Invisible Man, Birds of Prey, or Bloodshot), there’s a good chance you didn’t see a movie in a movie theater for the entire year.

Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman Is a Trash Friend
Wonder Woman is supposed to be the best of women. This isn’t me starry-eyed about a fictional character and forcing her to be a defender and icon.

The Coolest Star Wars Collectibles of 2020
