I’d say, all things considered, a well described episode. The little bit of description I liked the most was just the inclusion of the soldier that Joe/Kermit is with, and her braided hair. She felt … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 09/10/25

The Runarounds- I’m glad I got to this quickly. So, if you are interested in The Runarounds, DO NOT stay for the preview of the season that runs at the end. I’ve never seen such a spoiler laden thing in my life. It’s ridiculous. it is one of those “this season on The runarounds”, but everything they showed had a far different tone than the … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 09/02/25
