A significant plot of season 4 of CBS’s reboot of MacGyver was dedicated to Mac (Lucas Till) trying to stop a criminal mastermind conglomerate called Codex from trying to end the world. Their reasoning was your typical liberal propaganda, as there are supposedly too many people in the world (actually overpopulation is a myth) and climate change is so evil that they need to ‘reset’ the world which…

Week after week Mrs. America spins the life and likeness of conservative leader Phyllis Schlafly. But there is one subject the FX on Hulu show is surprisingly honest about: the depiction of liberals prioritizing abortion over almost any other issue. Liberal determination to enshrine a “right” to kill unborn babies appeared in multiple episodes including Wednesday’s episode “Jill,” where one…

Amazon Prime’s latest series Upload recently debuted, and unfortunately, it’s nothing less than a big disappointment. Somehow, this sci-fi satire manages to make even the afterlife political. It just goes to show that not even death can stop the social justice warriors on TV.

With about ninety percent of all news being focused on Covid-19, it’s up to shows like CW’s Roswell, New Mexico to take our minds off a pandemic for an hour. Unfortunately, that means focusing on every other political issue under the sun whether we like it or not. And that’s pretty much what happened in the May 4 episode “Say It Ain’t So.”

To many the word Hollywood evokes glamour and dreams of stardom. Perhaps no time in history was that more true than the late 1940s. But the city that birthed silent movies and talkies also had a seedy underbelly. Prostitution rings. Abusive agents, casting directors and motion picture moguls. Mob rackets. Netflix’s new original, Hollywood, which debuted last Friday takes the dirtiest secrets,…

In season two of CW’s In the Dark, Murphy (Perry Mattfeld), Jess (Brooke Markham), and Felix (Morgan Krantz) are in the shady business of laundering money for crime boss Nia (Nicki Micheaux). To better protect himself, Felix decides to borrow a gun from his mother.

Rather than a battle of the sexes, the latest Mrs. America episode was a battle of the marriages that crowned the radical feminists’ version superior. On one side, conservatives Fred and Phyllis Schlafly’s marriage. On the other, the “equal marriage” between liberals Brenda Feigen Fasteau and Marc Fasteau. Marc (played by Adam Brody) describes their marriage as “forged in the crucible of feminism…

Mixed-ish, ABC's prequel to Black-ish, is well known for being a politically charged, anti-conservative show based in the 1980s. On Tuesday's episode, "Every Little Step," they continued this trend when Paul (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) accused Reagan of planting crack in the black community. 

In the Netflix show After Life, Gervais plays Tony, a widower working for a local newspaper. There isn’t much going on in this particular town, so they end up doing stories on things like a man who got the same birthday card from five different people and a teenager who can play two recorders at once- one in each nostril. In the final episode, he is assigned a profile on a 50 year-old man who…

In FX’s Breeders, viewers knew by the very first episode to expect Paul (Martin Freeman) to dehumanize his children by constantly swearing at them. This includes the very first scene of the series. As it turns out, though, viewers learn from April 27’s episode, “No Cure (Part 2),” that he and his wife have been dehumanizing their son, Luke, since before he was even born.

NBC's obnoxious LGBTQ sitcom Will & Grace has somehow lasted two iterations over 11 seasons over 22 years. Along with pushing homosexuality mainstream, the show has demonstrated a deep antipathy towards Republicans and conservatives. Thankfully, at long last, it is over.

Feminist matriarch Betty Friedan may have never actually called Phyllis Schlafly “The real wicked witch of the [women’s] movement,” but that’s certainly how Mrs. America is portraying Schlafly in the new series.

To say we’re going through a difficult time right now is an understatement. But that’s nothing compared to the disaster liberals believe we’re facing from a Donald Trump presidency. In fact, it’s such a disaster that they have to construct an entire miniseries to warn us about it. Just listen to the people behind HBO’s The Plot Against America.

The good news is that CW’s Roswell, New Mexico seems to have moved on from talking about abortion. The bad news is that now it seems comfortable showing alien threesomes. Somehow, this was not the step I was hoping this sci-fi series would take.
