Whovians, take a big, deep breath. After months of wild speculation, crazy rumors, professional back-biting, awkward questions, endless debate, and general sturm und drang within the fandom, we can finally say it: Doctor Who is coming back, and the BBC has officially announced a Christmas special for 2026. To what is likely the surprise of no […]

At this point, talking about all the things that are controversial, or kind of bad, or just downright weird about the Doctor Who season 15 finale kind of feels like beating a dead horse. “The Reality War” is just not a great episode. It’s fully apparent that the ending we got wasn’t the ending Russell […]

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is trying a lot of new things in its first season. From attempting to reclaim the franchise’s 32nd century setting to introducing a bevy of young cadets ready to be shaped into the starship captains and Federation leaders of tomorrow, the series is, of necessity, going to feel like something entirely […]

Game of Thrones prequel series A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is making no secret of the fact that it’s going to be something very different from its predecessor. Boasting shorter episodes and a much more limited narrative scope, the story takes place during a time when the dragons are dead and the small folk […]

Many of us likely never expected the long-rumored Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot to see the light of day — or at least, if it did, not with any of the folks who helped make the show so beloved involved. But, they say that heroes arrive when we need them most, and it’s difficult to […]

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is set up to do many things. Continue the story of the franchise in the 32nd century. Introduce a crop of new young characters (and actors) primed to carry on boldly going into the future. Show us some new species. Give heavyweight actors like Holly Hunter and Paul Giamatti the chance […]

Guillermo del Toro’s forthcoming Netflix film, Frankenstein, has been a passion project for the director for many years. He’s been talking about making a Frankenstein movie since at least 2007, and basically thanked Mary Shelley for existing during his 2018 BAFTA acceptance speech for Best Director. This fact probably shouldn’t come as much of a […]

When all is said and done, the Disney+ years of Doctor Who are probably going to be remembered for spawning an awful lot of drama in a relatively short time frame. And honestly? Rightly so. Whether it’s Ncuti Gatwa’s regeneration after just two seasons, the controversial season 15 finale that saw the (seemingly last-minute) return […]

The current Doctor Who hiatus is hitting everyone hard. Fans, critics, former cast members, and previous writers have all weighed in on everything from Ncuti Gatwa’s regeneration and who former companion Billie Piper is meant to be playing at the end of the season 15 finale to whether we can expect to see the show […]

Big changes are coming in The Witcher season 4, the most obvious of which is the fact that the show is swapping out its lead actor for the show’s final two seasons, with The Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth officially taking up the mantle of Geralt of Rivia from Henry Cavill. No one knows quite […]

The following article contains major spoilers for Andrzej Sapkowski’s penultimate The Witcher Saga novel, The Tower of Swallows. Netflix’s high fantasy series The Witcher has plenty of dark elements: Terrifying monsters, deadly magic, and humans who are often more dangerous than any beast. (And that’s not even counting Witchers themselves, who are essentially born via […]

Given that it’s been on the air for almost 60 years at this point, it’s not a surprise that Star Trek has a large amount of behind-the-scenes lore surrounding it. Whether it’s original casting decisions that might have been, or potential spinoffs that never happened, Trekkies have plenty of options to consider when it comes […]

One of the great tragedies of Doctor Who’s long history is that we can’t actually watch all of it anymore. While nearly 900 episodes of the sci-fi classic have aired since the show first premiered in 1963, the BBC hasn’t always been… let’s just say on top of its archival processes. In fact, it actually […]

We already know that HBO’s latest Game of Thrones prequel, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, will break from its predecessors in several important ways. The series, which is based on author George R. R. Martin’s trio of “Dunk and Egg” novellas, is set roughly 90 years before the events of Game of Thrones in […]

Being a Doctor Who fan is not for the weak. From a combative, often pessimistic fandom to one of the wildest rumor mills in all of entertainment, let’s just say that Whovians generally have to deal with a lot. The situation feels even more fraught than normal these days, with the general state of the […]

Say what you want about Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, but it’s a series that’s absolutely determined to strike out on its own path. With its decidedly younger cast, school-based setting, and, if the trailer is anything to go by, fairly frequent relationship drama, it’s definitely not like any other Star Trek series we’ve seen recently. […]

Much like any franchise that’s been around as long as Star Trek has, its various series have made some… let’s just call them controversial choices. Whether it’s the Star Trek: The Original Series episode where Kirk and Spock visit a Nazi planet or the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine installment where Sisko tacitly agrees to […]

Let’s just say it: The state of Doctor Who, at the moment, is not exactly all that great. The series’s most recent season concluded with a shock regeneration and Fifteenth Doctor Ncuti Gatwa’s exit from the TARDIS after just two seasons. The next Doctor may or may not be (but probably isn’t) former companion Billie […]
