To mark the release of Two Weeks to Live on 15th February, we’ve been given 2 copies to give away on DVD.
Strange young misfit Kim Noakes (Maisie Williams) was a young girl when her father died under murky circumstances, and her grieving mother Tina (Sian Clifford) whisked her away to a remote rural life of seclusion and bizarre survival techniques… Growing up off grid has left Kim with little clue of how things work, but now it’s time to face the real world. Maybe her survivalist skills will come in handy…or maybe they won’t?
Setting out for the first time to begin a secret mission of honouring her father’s memory, Kim bumps into the socially awkward Nicky (Mawaan Rizwan – Next of Kin), at his and brother Jay’s (Taheen Modak – The Bay), local pub, setting in motion a chaotic series of events that puts all their lives in danger.

The Flash goes for lowest common denominator storytelling in a Dibney-centric episode with few delights. Spoilers ahead...

4.6 When Harry Met Harry
The Flash is not known for pushing the progressive envelope, but it rarely shows the level of cultural tone deafness that is on display in When Harry Met Harry. Literally every storyline included sexist, racist, or ableist subtext — a distraction in any sociopolitical climate, but one you would hope could be avoided in the current one.
Let's start with the main plot, which saw Barry teaching Dibney how to be a superhero. While you might think this kind of lesson would involve the logistics of superhero-ing — i.e. how to best use is abilities or how to make decisions in a fast-paced...

A Felicity-centric episode of Arrow reverses roles to great effect. Spoilers ahead in our review...

6.4 Reversal
This Felicity-centric episode, directed by actor Gregory Smith (Everwood and Rookie Blue, among others), breathes some much-needed life back into this season of Arrow. This episode was a great reminder of why Emily Bett Rickards is so essential to the show's chemistry, and why she deserves more storylines in her own right. The writers found a creative way to keep Oliver on the bench (or at least out of the hood) for one more week, while giving Felicity some of that much-needed screentime.
It was nice to take a break from the William narrative, although he was mentioned several times.

The twist at the end of last week’s episode of Arrow, in which Oliver handed off the mantle of Green Arrow to Diggle in order to keep his promise to William, has been met with both positive and negative reactions from the show’s fans, and I would be lying if I said that I wasn’t a little uneasy about this turn of events going into tonight’s episode. However, “Next Of Kin” addresses nearly every concern I had about this storyline throughout its running time, from how Diggle’s physical condition would affect his new role to how the team would respond

6.3 Next Of Kin
We’re still in set-up mode on Arrow, but things are starting to get back into the groove as more pieces come onto the board. Tonight’s episode reveals that there are plenty more landmines aside from Anatoli, the mysterious perpetrator of Oliver’s surprisingly accurate frame job, and FBI Agent Watson. Team Arrow may just destroy itself, if given the chance.
I’m glad to see that Oliver’s hiatus from wearing the hood lasted at least one episode, and will likely go on longer in order to maximize the tension that comes from a self-destructive, physically compromised John Diggle.

Last week, Arrow fans experienced quite the shocker at the end of “Tribute” when Oliver Queen passed the Green Arrow mantle to John Diggle. Basically, Ollie wants to assure that his son, William, has no fear of losing yet another parent. Thus, it only made sense to him that he hang up his bow.
So, even though Diggle has suited up in Oliver’s stead a few times in the past, that doesn’t mean this gargantuan shift didn’t come as any less of a surprise – especially when we’ve been told that this new status quo will remain in place for the time being.

That routine, a classic example of what was known in the early 60’s as “sick humor”, was nevertheless ubiquitous across mainstream variety shows like Ed Sullivan and Jack Paar. It also popularized the notion of a new boutique industry, the vanity funeral. The novelist Evelyn Waugh, decidedly less mainstream, documented the beginning of that phenomenon over a decade earlier with The Loved One,...
