Every Year After dropped all 8 episodes on Prime Video, and it's even better than Carley Fortune's book, Every Year After. From Sam & Percy's yearning and tension to the female friendships between Percy, Chantal, and Delilah, the Florek brothers easy-on-the-eyes factor, and room for more story moving forward, it's a must-watch! This video offers a #spoilerfree review, comparison to The Summer I Turned Pretty (and a bit of Off Campus), a full deep dive into the season, needle drops, and more!

I had the pleasure of speaking with Megan Follows, who plays adult Tessa in The Way Home Season 4 on Hallmark. We got into her journey this season as a bootlegger/rum runner, her relationship with her son Elliot Augustine, and more!

If you're watching The Vampire Lestat on AMC...how do you think Armand got his eye patch we see at the auction? A possible fight between him and Daniel, when he turned him or after? I get into all of my theories related to Armand, Louis, and Lestat and this mysterious patch...which I do not think is an accident or throwaway.

The Vampire Lestat is here on AMC and I'm already beautifully unwell! Let's unpack the potentially posthumous auction, Daniel Molloy's latest project, the music, the chaos, and some familiar faces including Raglan James, the Vampire Armand, Louis, Sam, and of course the legend himself, Lestat shining in his rockstar era. Black Licorice got me!

Criminal Minds: Evolution has spent years building the Elias Voit (played by Zach Gilford) storyline, but has the show become too dependent on him? After four seasons, I'm starting to feel like the show needs to move on and give other characters room to breathe...enter Connor Storrie (Heated Rivalry)!

In this video, I break down why the constant focus on Voit may be hurting the series, why the BAU works best when multiple storylines are allowed to shine, and how Connor Storrie's "Heated Rivalry" fame could be exactly the shakeup Season 4 needs.

From fresh conflict to new character dynamics, there may finally be a path forward that doesn't revolve around Elias Voit. Do you agree? Has the Voit storyline run its course, or should Criminal Minds keep him front and center?

Plus, I share the superior crime shows now streaming on #ParamountPlus.
