The 100: Evolution of Octavia Blake
One of my favorite characters in The CW's The 100 has to be Octavia Blake, who has gone through by far the greatest evolution during the course of the show's six seasons with the sixth just kicking off. So I thought I would go over her character arc as I find it just so interesting to see how she has changed over time.…
View PostThe Umbrella Academy: Thoughts on Season One
Netflix released a new series back in February that I just got around to watching called The Umbrella Academy, which is an adaptation of the comic book series by the same name (created by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá under Dark Horse Comics) developed by Steve Blackman and Jeremy Slater. It's an interesting premise as the story revolves around seven adopted siblings each with their own powers. The family is completely dysfunctional and brought back together by the death of their father and the threat of an impending apocalypse. I'm not going to go into the details of the plot as to not give any spoilers in case you haven't seen the series yet but were planning on doing so in the future.…

In the last month or so, I started watching Freeform's Shadowhunters, and have finished it three times now.

And mainly I'm going to be comparing the first season of Shadowhunters to the movie, since they cover the same amount of material since the show has continued onto the other books and now gone sort of in their own direction at this point.…
View PostComparing Sabrina the Teenage Witch to Chilling Adventures of Sabrina
Netflix recently came out with The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina which is a dark version of the comics from Archie Comics. When I was growing up, I used to watch Sabrina the Teenage Witch. And I don't know why when I saw this on Netflix I didn't put the two together until I got a bit into the first episode. I kept thinking to myself, why does this seem so familiar. Then Salem got introduced and it finally clicked in my head. So I thought it would be fun to get into comparing the two adaptations of the shows. As they are both good in their own regards, but take the story of the Spellmans in very different directions.…
