Horror isn’t just a genre; it’s an amalgamation of pop culture, cozy traditions, and things that go bump in the night. This year, we're taking our 31 Days of Horror across the entire cultural spectrum. We’ll be taking a look at movies that scare us, games that kept us paranoid, scary books we cozy up with under blankets, music that sets that spooky tone and seasonal food we’re craving–or strange food you’d have to tie us up and force feed us. Whether you’re looking for someth

Animation rarely gets a fair shake, and this Halloween we want to remind you of all the amazing animated thrills and chills you can find.

I’ve given up on hating some things. I’m not saying I love DWTS, but I definitely look forward to it, despite the gripes I still very much have.

Ok, hang with me for a moment. When I started hate watching Dancing with the Stars I never said I could keep up with it. I mean, there’s a new episode once a week, and I can’t just binge it in one day either. Not only that, but you have to look at the TV the entire time so you don’t miss anything. This is very different than the TV I keep on for noise while I do things like edit articles and not do laundry.

The point is, sometimes you want to feel spooky but you feel sad. Sometimes you miss how Halloween used to be. This is the cure for that sort of melancholy, I promise. I have what some people consider a moral failing: a love for TV, and a love for commercials. Growing up I constantly got the disapproving eye from people who "didn't watch any screens at all" and "made a TV planter because that's how much TV we don't watch." Not that it bothered me. Nope, didn't both

I love a good Halloween episode of a TV show. And I love any holiday special. I think it’s because I’m a child of the late 80s, and early 90s. This was THE era for holiday themed TV, and Halloween was my favorite. Suddenly your favorite shows got a little scarier – even the sitcoms. And shows that were already scary? Well, you could count on them doubling down on the horror.

Star Trek isn’t necessarily known for being scary, but there are a few episodes that are genuinely creepy. I mean, the first aired episode of Star Trek was “The Man Trap” which was a creature feature about a salt vampire that can appear as different people while stalking and killing Enterprise crew members.

Now, we could go back and cover the premiere but a premiere is a premiere and to be honest, I hate two night premieres. I hated them with SYTYCD and I hate them with this. Mostly because it’s a lot of filler for a format that’s already got that in spades. On to the first actual week of the competition, after meeting everyone and eliminating Conner Leavitt and Sarah Jane Nader, who I didn’t know before and had not yet formed an attachment to, though it is a bummer that the sam

Alright: I'm gonna say something controversial. I don't love hating on things. In fact, I think if you're a good reviewer/critic/journalist, you should be able, most of the time, to find the good in something. I also don't like to yuck someone's yum. Art is objective. Things I hate you might like. After all, a lot of people in Britain don't get peanut butter and jelly. While I think it's insane they'd think the combination would be overly sweet and gross, they think it's

There are generations upon generations of Trek fans. The point is, there's a lot of us, in every demographic, every class, every single place in every nation. And we've got money to spend if you've got the wares. Well, someone told Le Creuset, and I'm fearful my wallet will never recover.

The most chilling thing for me watching Death of The Pastor’s Wife isn’t that it happened, it’s that it didn’t surprise me one bit.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is back for its fourth season, and its first episode is an absolute diamond. Be warned, spoilers abound ahead.

One of the reasons I fear for the future is the same reason I have hope for it. There’s very little barrier to entry to create. As long as you have internet access and a smart phone (or cell service and a smartphone) you can be a streamer, a podcaster, a YouTuber or...make a documentary.

Listen, 7pm is a good time to be at home, in your pj’s, with a pizza and a good show after work (unless you work in an industry where it’s go time). Right now though, we’re in a situation where everyone’s been working since...well, forever ago, and are now entering the second hour of a holiday nightshift. No one’s having fun. Not the patients who did a few bumps and assaulted a nurse, not the guy who blew himself into a garage, not really anyone. And not the doctors of The

Meanwhile, several pirates look on as one of them gets stitched up. Apparently, he got bayonet..ted. Doesn’t seem super bad. Maybe they’re Revolutionary War re-enactors, in fact. I just saw pirates. Either way. Bayonetted.

I’d say I was waiting for the E! Docuseries to air its America’s Next Top Model episodes for me to comment on The Tyra one where Tyra didn’t have anything to do with production see, so it’s totally non-biased. Except, surprise, or not, if you’ve seen the documentary, the part where you think you’re getting some expose about what happened and potentially have the people involved at least fess up to it and try to make some amends has been replaced with Tyra, in a trench coat, s

5 pm. Quittin' time. End of watch. Ohhh noooooo. I'm not ready. Are you ready? I'm just... not ready. But hey, that's what recaps of recaps are for, right? Let's go!

It's 4. Everyone's out internet. Waterslide collapse. Baby Jane Doe. Robby's a jerk. Let's go.

How did we get to episode 9 already? It’s 3pm. The day is still young, but the season is mostly over and I’m a little sad. I get that production on this has to be an UNDERTAKING and that’s likely a huge understatement but man. I feel the approach of the end, and there’s so much more I want to see.
