TV Review: BoJack Horseman Season 1

I can honestly say that I never saw a day that I would be writing a review for an adult cartoon. Its not a genre that I've ever frequented. I've all but missed the boat on shows like The Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park, etc. However after hearing rave reviews for the Netflix original, BoJack Horseman I thought I might as well give it a shot.

TV Review: Better Call Saul Season 1

It's been two years since Walter White graced our television screens. I've missed watching Breaking Bad but the good news is there has been no shortage of incredible shows to watch. AMC however saw the loss of Breaking Bad as an opportunity to spin-off the series and focus on everyones favorite lawyer, Saul Goodman. The series is Better Call Saul and Jenn and I just finished watching the first season and I'm sad to say we didn't love it.

However today is different. I was driving to work this past week listening to one of my favorite podcasts/Filmcast. They were doing a review of the movie The End of the Tour which is about an interview conducted with famed author David Foster Wallace.

TV Review: The Amazing Race 26 (Jenn Wins Again)

We cut the cord around a year ago. This means is that we watch a lot less network TV (CBS, NBC, ABC, FOX) then we used to and watch more of what's on stuff like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime. One of the things we miss the most about having cable is watching shows like The Amazing Race and Top Chef. Well luckily we were able to get The Amazing Race Season 26 (the latest season). We started from the first episode and everyday during dinner would work our way through the season.
