Life Sentence Recap: Clinical Trial and Error

When I first learned that Pretty Little Liars’ star Lucy Hale was getting a new show on The CW, I was excited. I wanted to see her in a role far removed from that of Aria Montgomery. I wanted it to be a show that was funny, charming, a little silly at times but overall a good show. While I’m …

Life Sentence: Re-inventing the Abbotts

The CW new series Life Sentence is meant to be quirky and whimsical, lightly hitting on serious issues and using montages to make it feel like your typical cancer-based movie; but it, sadly, falls short of its full potential.

Black History Month: The Importance of African American Representation on TV

We have come a long way with the representation of African Americans on television. I’m so happy that we have a variety of shows today that show African Americans in a positive light and also spark a much needed conversation regarding race in our country.

The Amazing Women of Black Lightning

For a show that is ostensibly about the fight between two men who are supposed to be dead, it’s the ladies that breathe life into Black Lightning. Don’t get me wrong, if this show stuck with the typical superhero vs. villain scenario, it would still be good. But there is a depth to the community in which the show is …
