The Tomorrow People: Season 1 | Review and Discussion

The following will contain spoilers toward the end. You have been warned.

Telepathy; teleportation; telekinisis: the three awesome abilities The Tomorrow People acquire, except...they can't kill. Similar to the movie Jumper, each and every one of their species is being hunted by a secret organisation hunting paranormals, in this case Ultra. You have the love triangles, the badass fighting scenes, betrayal, twists, and, of course, your heroes and, behold...the Chosen One, a teenage boy named Stephen with the rare ability to stop time just like previous leader of their kind: his father.

Episode after episode, I was hooked. I liked each of the main characters and the way the show played out. It tricked me into thinking who you can trust and who the real villain is. And then, after falling in love with this series until the last few episodes, it all went wrong. Here's why.

Microsoft DOS Games: My Childhood


Do you remember accessing Microsoft DOS games and feeling joy once you saw those different coloured boxes filled with awesome, fun games? I sure do. Microsoft DOS games were pretty much my childhood; it was the beginning of my love for video games. Street Fighter 2, Hexen, Wolfenstein, Hugo, Jill of the Hill; there are way too many games to list unfortunately, but I will go through my top personal favourite classics and relive those precious childhood memories…and those beautiful, cringe worthy graphics, too, of course.

The Following: Season 2 Finale | Discussion


The following—no pun intended—discussion contains spoilers. You have been warned.
Well, damn. The Following has wrapped up its second season with some cases closed and others left out in the open for viewers to wait another however long it is for Season 3 and guess what will happen next in the meantime. Did I like it? Eh, it was okay, but the season overall is another story.
