features, tv

“One World, One People” concludes The Falcon and The Winter Soldier 1×06, except this clearly isn’t a series finale because nothing is wrapped in the kind of bow we’d prefer so, I suppose we shall now have to wait to hear what’s happening because what!?

features, tv

I wish to be entertained.” We get it, Queen Charlotte, we do and we’re right there with you except we’re asking how it’s possible that it took this long for romance novels to get the rightful attention that they deserve. Repeat after us: change is good—change is necessary. There might never come a time where the romance genre isn’t frowned upon by literature purists or art house film aficionados in the cinematic world, but we’re going to continue praising it.
