TV Shows Watched: A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms: S1E3 (HBO mAX) with audio description, Wonder Man: S1E4 (Disney Plus) with audio description, The Beauty: S1E1 (Disney Plus) with audio description, Splinter Cell: Deathwatch: S1E? (Netflix) with audio description, and Steal: S1E2 (Amazon) with audio description A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms- I still refuse to stand down on my stance that this show has problems in tonal shifts. It relishes in potty humor, and then also nearly rapes a woman, and curb stomps a man. Like, pick a lane. And normally, I wouldn’t think too much about the episode … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 02/02/26

TV Shows Watched: Boots: Series Finale (Netflix) with audio description, Wonder Man: S1E3 (Disney Plus) with audio description, Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials: S1E1 (Netflix) with audio description, Elzabeth: S3E Dianne Wiest (Paramount Plus) with audio description, and Matlock: S2E Bye Bitch (Paramount Plus) with audio description Boots- Finished. great series. I hope to do a review, but my quick thoughts are that I think they wrap season 1 enough that the cancellation isn’t quite as painful, and this would have been a great recruitment tool for the Military in any other administration. In terms of entertainment, most military dramas feature … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 02/01/26

Disclaimer: I’m a blind film critic. This film has audio description available. Remember when we were at peak Marie Condo? She helped hoarders get rid of unnecessary crap. “Does it spark joy?” Well, based on that metric, no, this does not. It did not spark joy. Ozgood Perkins, whose career truly took off with the bizarre and creepy Long Legs, managed to push out two films in 2025, with the first being an over the top adaptation of a Stephen King story in The Monkey, and the latter being this. Tatiana Maslany, who Ivan only assume fired her agent after … Continue reading Keeper

Disclaimer: I’m a blind film critic. I typically watch films with audio description. There is no known audio description for this title. The truth is out there. Are we alone in the universe? The existential question man has been thinking about ever since we realized what that big black thing with the dots was at night. When you look up at the stars, and think of the infinite space, it becomes pretty easy to accept that aliens, or simply life on other planets, exists. In the vastness of space, even if we may never make contact. Starman explores a much … Continue reading Going In Blind: Starman (2026)

TV Shows Watched: Bridgerton: S4E3 and S4E4 (Netflix) with audio description, Wonder Man: S1E2 (Disney Plus) with audio description, Simon Cowell: the Next Act: S1E3 (Netflix) with audio description, Steal: S1E1 (Amazon) with audio description?, and Boston Blue: S1E? (Paramount Plus) with audio description Bridgerton- My clueless take. Last season, the audio description made a stir, with influencers encouraging people to turn it on because it made things steamier. i wonder if Netflix had notes on that, because the masturbation sequence felt a little below the extremely high bar Liz constantly sets in her descriptions, yet, later in the 4th … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 01/31/26

Disclaimer: I’m a blind film critic. this film has audio description on Amazon. You can’t just throw Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista together in any film and sell it. They need actual material. This is a mistake we keep repeating, especially for Bautista, who spent last year floundering in forgettable dystopian garbage like Afterburner and In The Lost Lands. He did seem like he was really working hard to find the right directors and the right projects, and I don’t know why they’ve abandoned him. Momoa on the other hand is clearly down for anything that hints at representing his … Continue reading The Wrecking Crew

It’s one of my favorite films of all time, a classic I’ve seen too many times to count. I grew up on Home Alone, and as a kid, the idea of creating a giant booby trap to defeat the bad guys was appealing. But, as I grew older, there was something else that stuck with me. How hard Kevin’s mom fights to get back home to her son in time for Christmas. Wrapped up in this quirky Christmas comedy about the Wet Bandits meeting their greatest foe, and the lovely John Candy polka man, there’s a wonderful story about being … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 01/30/26

Disclaimer: I’m a blind film critic. I watch films with audio description. I have now seen this twice, once without, and once with. the audio description is deluxe, narrated by Laura Post. Speaking of high tech, if there was a way to download a patch that would let me enjoy Tron, I would. I have such a hard time with the original film, which is just not anywhere near my nostalgia bait. To be fair, it did open before I was born, so I was reliant on a home video viewing, or a cable watch. it took a long time … Continue reading Tron: Ares

Disclaimer: I’m a blind film critic. I was actually given an accessible screener for this title. It is possible. Gore Verbinski hasn’t directed a feature since 2016’s A Cure For Wellness, and perhaps taking ten years off works for him. Instead of joining the ever growing list of directors who are past their prime, Verbinski boldly returns with a timely science-fiction dark comedy about how we are absolutely ruining our future. Truly an ensemble piece with lots of moving parts, we first become introduced to our time traveler (Sam Rockwell) who returns to the past with dire information, and sadly … Continue reading Good Luck, Have Fun, And Don’t Die

TV Shows Watched: Starfleet Academy: S1E3 (Paramount Plus) with audio description, Bridgerton: S4E1 (Netflix) with audio description, Will Trent: S4E3 (Disney Plus) with audio description, Solar Opposites: S6E4 (Disney Plus) with audio description, Devil In Disguise: S1E8 (Peacock) with audio description, and The Masked Singer: S14E4 (Disney Plus) no audio description Starfleet Academy- This show is still hot hilarious garbage. Episode 3 is prank wars between Starfleet and War Academies, with Jay-Den offering the deadpan perfect line of there not being anything funny about him. My new theory, is that Hollywood, intrigued by how people watch admittedly trashy reality shows, … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 01/29/26

TV Shows Watched: Fallout: S2E7 (Amazon) with audio description, His and Hers: S1E2 (Netflix) with audio description, Hijack: S2E1 (Apple) with audio description, Ripple: S1E3 (Netflix) with audio description, Emily In Paris: S5E6 (Netflix) with audio description Fallout- We get closer to the end. There’s a really gory scene involving a decapitated head that is describe well. I don’t remember the drivers license shown earlier in the season specifying Canadian, but that becomes super important here. I thought the date was important. Also, Thaddeus reveals something on his chest, which is bizarre, and I assume described perfectly. His And Hers- … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 01/28/26

TV Shows Watched: American Idol: S24E1 (Disney Plus) *STILL* with No Audio Description, Crutch: S1E3 (Paramount Plus) with audio description, Rick and Morty: S8E4 (HBO MAX) with audio description, All’s Fair: S1E4 (Disney Plus) with audio description, and The Daily Show: Monday (Paramount Plus) no audio description American Idol- This show premiered on June 11th, 2002. Since then, Kelly Clarkson went on to have a crazy successful career, and now has her own talk show. Carrie Underwood is now a judge. Jennifer Hudson has an Oscar. Adam Lambert toured with Queen. Jordon sparks has been everywhere from In The Heights … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 01/27/26

It also clearly is in the world of House Of The Dragon, with … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 01/26/26

Just in case you need reasons to be excited for this week, we mark the return of American Idol (will it finally have audio description?), Bridgerton, Shrinking, and School Spirits, along with the premiere of the new Marvel show Wonder Man. TV Shows Watched: Talamaska: S1E3 (AMC Plus) no audio description, The Mighty Nine: S1E1 (Amazon) with audio description, Murdaugh: Death In The Family: S1E8 (Hulu) with audio description, Star Search: S1E2 (Netflix) with audio description, and Landman: S2E4 (Paramount Plus) with audio description. Talamaska- As someone who is struggling through Interview With A Vampire,I’m familiar enough with the series … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 01/25/26

Disclaimer: I’m a blind film critic. I get offered a lot of random titles looking for coverage. I vaguely remember being offered this film in the middle of awards season, which is a terrible time for every little film. Not only are there a ton of new films, but Oscar qualifying runs, and studios sending us complete slates of films for consideration. If you are a tiny film in November or December, you should send links in October. No later. So, after this film dropped in December, it returned to me. Why has no one written or reviewed this? Not … Continue reading Going In Blind: Down River
