Michael C. Hall is back! Logan Myerz reviews the first season of Safe now streaming on Netflix.
“After his daughter goes missing, a widower begins uncovering the dark secrets of the people closest to him.”
I don’t usually review TV shows, but I wanted to try something different and Netflix’s Everything Sucks! was something that really stuck with me, so much that I was inspired to write about it and hopefully those of you who read this might want to give it a shot. Everything Sucks!, in a lot of ways, is the show that the trailer sells you with its very 90’s aesthetic, due to the fact that it’s set in 1996. It’s evident in the first two episodes, which are also its weakest. However, they do a good job setting up for the tone, the characters, and the story. But once it figures itself out, it becomes quite an engaging and charming show. The show is about a group of high school kids in Boring, Oregon and how they’re dealing with growing up.

In the late 70’s and 80’s, WWF (now WWE) superstar Andre Roussimoff, better known as Andre the Giant, was a professional wrestling superstar. Many people already knew that the story-lines in TV wrestling were fake and some people had a hard time accepting the truth that Andre stood seven feet tall and weighed 500 pounds, a behemoth of a man.
Andre was nicknamed “The Eighth Wonder of the World” and a “Larger than Life Existence”. HBO’s Andre the Giant documentary is a larger than life documentary that does a good job of showing the career, influence, ups-and-downs that Andre dealt with in his inspirational lifetime.
Logan Myerz reviews the first season of Mr. Mercedes on the Audience Network, starring Brendan Gleeson, Harry Treadaway, Jharrel Jerome, Kelly Lynch, and Mary-Louise Parker. The show was created by David E. Kelley that is based off of the Stephen King novel.
