This past month I caught up on a lot of my shows and found myself with some downtime in between series and decided to squeeze in Hulu’s new mini series The Act. I first heard about this series at throwing practice when one of my teammates asked me if I was going to watch it. Not knowing what it was…

6 Movies I Can’t Wait to See This Year
2019 has already had some great movie releases from Avengers Endgame to Us. But we are only five months in and we still have a lot more to come. As someone who would rather watch the same seven movies over and over again than go see something new, I am super excited for these six movies and can’t wait to…
Hollywood’s Real Monster
With all of the sexual harassment/rape cases that have been exposed about some of our favorite entertainers, it is easy to focus on the assaulter instead of the assaulted. However, we need to remember the victims of these alleged crimes and not ignore them or assume they are lying. I read an article yesterday catching up on the latest allegations…
We Need To Talk About Riverdale
Riverdale is one of my favorite new shows and I think the producers have answered all my prayers by giving me an honest to God mystery show. I’m still suffering from PLL PTSD due to the terrible finale on a show that I wasted so many years on. Anyway season one of Riverdale had me on the edge of my…
What A Waste
Every year I promise myself that I won’t waste any more time watching The Bachelor/Bachelorette. However, like so many others I was sucked in at, what I thought was, Rachel’s straight forward take at this unconventional way to find “true love”. Up until the finale, I enjoyed watching Rachel and believed she would follow her heart and end up with…
A Skewed View of Gender Fluidity
Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid are the hottest couple in the tabloids right now. However, the duo’s recent cover shoot for Vogue was everything but glamorous. The photoshoot displays the couple “breaking gender norms” by having Zayn wear clothes made for women and Gigi wearing clothes made for men. Vogue defined this act of borrowing clothes as being gender fluid,…
Hidden Gems
It’s no secret that I like old things. Music, movies, fashion, accessories, and of course TV shows. I use Summer as a time to not only relax but catch up on shows, books, and movies that I never have time for during the busy school/track year. I know that I have said this before but guys I found a hidden…
It All Comes Down To This [Update]
I’ve been watching/reading Pretty Little Liars since I was in 6th grade. 5 years later, it is finally coming to an end. The ending is bittersweet. On one hand I am sad that I will no longer have something to do every Tuesday at 8 PM, but on the other hand, I am happy because the show has so many…
The Old and The Young
A ton of shows and movies have this weird dynamic that it is glamorous for a minor to hook up with an adult when in reality it is so disturbing. In society, not only is this illegal, it is greatly frowned upon. So why is it so common on screen? I made a list of shows that have this trend: -Aria…
PKM’s Review on The New Edition Story
I’ve been told that I’m an old soul since birth and I grew up with Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Lionel Richie, Smokey Robinson, and The Supremes on my iPod. When news got around to me that BET was making a documentary on New Edition I couldn’t wait to see how they would recreate all of the drama and the legacy…
