Black Sails—“XXXIV” Review. Death Comes to Nassau.

Shocking, devastating, suspenseful, and tragic are some of the words running through my mind after watching the latest episode of Black Sails. “XXXIV” follows up quickly after the suspenseful end of “XXXIII” when Woodes Rogers (Luke Roberts), along with the aid of a Spanish fleet, invades Nassau.

Grimm – “Tree People” Review. Moral Green Area.

If you’ve ever wondered whether trees would attack after you trashed the forest, this episode depicts the anger said leafy wooded objects could unleash. “Tree People” instills some morals about how to treat the planet and to respect nature…or else. And let me tell you, the ‘or else’ is completely insane. The term ‘becoming one with nature’ takes on a whole new meaning, especially when the writers introduce a blood thirsty tree know as a “Joboko.” It reminds me of the movie Little Shop of Horrors, in a way.

Taboo – “Episode 8” Review. Where (Almost) Everyone Dies.
