2023 (or will we have to wait until 2024?) could be the year(s) of horror franchise prequel series. We know Crystal Lake, a Friday the 13th prequel series, is coming soon to Peacock, and Velma, a Scooby-Doo prequel series, recently premiered on HBO Max. But It has one in the works,Continue Reading

Is Netflix’s Wednesday about to get competition for the Top 10 series spot, or maybe just some additional company? Wednesday has held strong with a Top 10 showing ever since it premiered on Nov. 23, 2022. However, The Irish Times recently shared its picks for the 10 best new showsContinue Reading

In both Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials trilogy and the HBO Max series based on it, many of the characters have daemons. (Which is actually spelled with a ligature to form “dæmons.”) In fact, as Will (Amir Wilson) finds out, everybody has dæmons. However, in some of the worlds (likeContinue Reading

Ghosts of Devil's Perch poster

Earlier this year, author Priscilla Bettis, whose a prolific reader, wrote a post about westerns and how they’re “sneaking into all sorts of genres” lately.

Jennifer Coolidge (Stifler's Mom), American Pie 4 Premiere, Paris, France

I’m going to have to go back and see if “Unpacking the Episode” is among The White Lotus season 1 extras. If it was, I missed it —and missed out on more fun. Season 2 has it, and I’m obsessed. They’re so much fun to watch. That’s where the otherContinue Reading

The Devil's Hour Amazon cover

There’s a reason the Amazon Original The Devil’s Hour is generating a lot of buzz and praise. It’s fresh and yet also familiar. Both Amazon and IMDB categorize it as a “Drama,” but also as “Suspense” and a “Thriller.” But it’s more than that. There’s a mind-bending supernatural component withContinue Reading

It’s finally happened. The first all-female paranormal investigation show is finally here. Or about to be. Haunted Gold Rush is a two-part docuseries that will be available to stream on HauntTV U.S. via Vizio Watchfree+ on October 27. It premieres on Canada’s T+E on October 30. I had a chanceContinue Reading

Haunted Gold Rush stars Corine Carey, Leanne Sallenback and Kelly Ireland

Something I see oft-lamented in the paranormal community is the lack of diversity in the programming on TV. Not only is it primarily white, but it’s also male-dominated. Sure, there are women investigators in many of the shows, but few are the ones in charge. Those in leading roles co-starContinue Reading
