Welcome back, Arrowheads! Ollie and Felicity head back to Star City after playing happy suburban couple for a while. What they’ve come back to is a reticent Diggle, a slightly vicious Thea, and a new threat in HIVE, led by the not quite human Damien Darhk. Darhk wants to lay waste to the city, and has help…in a maybe reluctant Quentin! Also in the flashback portion of our tour, Ollie gets picked up by Amanda Waller and sent on a secret mission to a familiar haunt…Lian Yu! Also, someone will be in a grave six months down the road. But let’s get to this episode, shall we? Continue reading

Stargate SG-1 Minicaps / Season 6, Eps. 17-20

The Stargate SG-1 Season Six Minicaps is not interested in some DNA re-sequencing to help it get into shape. Nope, too risky. Going to straight up HGH to do the job.

Stewart here…

Last time, we got teased with the possibility of longtime SG-1 nemesis Senator Kinsey getting assassinated, although that turned out to be a ruse to weed out a way more corrupt end of the way corrupt NID. Way to let us down, show. Well Kinsey reappears in this round of Minicaps, so maybe there’s some hope from this creep’s demise, huh? Read on to see if I’m proven right…

ARROW Season 4×01 recap, “Green Arrow”

8 Oct

Welcome back from the summer, Arrowheads! As you remember from last season, Oliver Queen decided to leave town with new girlfriend Felicity and rediscover himself (and after the convoluted mess of last season, who would blame him), leaving Starling City in the capable hands of his hero buddies. Since we haven’t had a title change, how is it that Ollie ends up fighting crime once again? Continue reading

Stargate SG-1 Minicaps / Season 6, Eps. 13-16

The Stargate SG-1 Season Six Minicaps is a riddle wrapped inside an enigma inside O’Neill’s fishing gear.

Stewart here…

Last time: the SGC had an impromptu test run of their new hybrid spaceship, the Prometheus, and by “impromptu”, I mean it was hijacked. Before SG-1 could rest from recovering the ship, the Asgard popped by, needing their help to stop the Replicators on the Asgard homeworld. After setting off a time dilation device that stuck the Replicators seemingly for good, I guess it’s time for some rest and relaxation. Well, how does that go in this round of Minicaps?

The Stargate SG-1 Season Six Minicaps named its new spaceship the Normandy. It likes the Mass Effect video games.

The Stargate SG-1 Season Six Minicaps only gets voicemail from Daniel Jackson. No FaceTime, just voicemail. Jerk.

Stewart here…

A quick recap: SG-1 started out this season on a few changes. One, they had to get a new Stargate on account of Anubis making the other one explode; two, they got a new team member in Jonas, a defector from an alien world; and three, Teal’c’s wife died. Some rough times to be sure, but not as horrifying as losing Daniel Jackson. Speaking of that, how has he been since he Ascended? And how is O’Neill faring since he had to get a symbiote put in him to save his life? Let’s get that and more answers right now…

The Stargate SG-1 Season Six Minicaps had to get some work done and now looks better than ever! You can’t even see the surgery scars!

Stewart here…

Welcome to season six, everyone! So a few things to know before we get this going: things haven’t been going so hot for our heroes. Their comrade, Daniel Jackson, got Ascended, so he’s not going to be joining us (for a while). They got a Bigger Bad in Anubis, a creepy System Lord who’s laying waste to SG-1’s allies. Just last time, the team saved the Asgard, Thor, from Anubis’ clutches, only to have him end up comatose. And they also have an alien, Jonas Quinn, who defected to their side now living in the SGC. This was all three months ago. So let’s check in on things in the SGC… Continue reading

What I Watched/Listened To On My Summer Vacation

31 Aug

Stewart here…

Summer used to be a great time to catch up on things I missed in the fall and spring, and while I can still do that to a certain extent, the summer has been doling out quality stuff on its own. So here’s a brief list of some things you might want to get on the bus for that I did this summer: Continue reading

Stargate SG-1 Minicaps / Season 5, Eps. 21-22 and Season Five Highlights

25 Aug
The Stargate SG-1 Season Two Minicaps only used that extra Gate once, and it was for business purposes only.

The Stargate SG-1 Season Five Minicaps is just going to try and pretend that one character’s demise is going to last. Spoilers: it doesn’t.

Stewart here…

In the fight for the galaxy this season, Anubis is an old/new player that has shifted power dramatically. With most of SG-1’s allies either gone or on the fences, you’d think things wouldn’t get worse. Well, they do. And that’s after the team itself takes a heartbreaking loss… Continue reading
