There are only a handful of characters likely to make it to the end. If we’re doing a third season, … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 09/09/25

John Stark

TV Shows Watched: The Runarounds: S1E1 (Amazon) with audio description, Platonic: S2E5 (Apple plus) with audio description, The Twisted Tale Of Amanda Knox: S1E3 (Hulu) with audio description, and Mindhunter: S1E10 (Netflix) with audio description. 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

So, this is Death Takes A holiday, but in the way Neil Gaiman would do it. It was cute. Inconsequential, but cute. The audio … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 08/28/25

TV Shows Watched: The Sandman: S2E9 (Netflix) with audio description, The institute: S1E5 (MGM Plus) with audio description, Countdown: S1E8 (Amazon) with audio description, Hitmakers: S1E2 (Netflix) with audio description, Mindhunter: S1E7 (Netflix) with audio description, Breaking Bad: S2E8 (Netflix) with audio description The Sandman- Still consistently great audio description from DVW. Some of the best moments of description are what happens to Fiddler’s Green, and the description of that, but also Loki continuing his mischief. The episode was petty centric on Joanna Constantine and The Corinthian, but definitely ended on a dour note for Dream. The Institute- What a … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 08/12/25

(Netflix) with audio description Building The Band- Seems like the right final three. Liam is my favorite judge, as he actually feels like he wants to give real feedback, and not just “reality show judge” babble that Nicole is so used to giving, after spending years telling every mediocre celebrity they are … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 07/27/25

The Small Screen Diaries: The Weekly Rankings

John Stark

Once again I’m running down the sixty shows on my broad watchlist. Joining the list this week, which was fairly slow for new shows, are The Sandman (Netflix), All Of Us Are Dead (Netflix), The Office (Peacock), Such Brave Girls (Hulu), Nautilus (AMC Plus), Dexter (Paramount Plus), and Prison Break (Netflix). I wrapped some shows, and anything that would rank outside the top 60 dies. WINNER: Squid Game (Netflix) with audio description- I knew I was going to lose my favorites. After the tragic uprising didn’t work last season, it meant playing out Squid Game till the end. I’m only … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: The Weekly Rankings

10 Newly Unemployed Actors Who Deserve Another TV Series

John Stark

1) ANNA TORV She’s proven to be an asset as a federal agent, so she should be partnered into another similar show. Could you see the fanbase explosion if she joined Josh Holloway on CBS’s midseason Intelligence? Excellence. 2) SOPHIA BUSH She hasn’t found the right series since One Tree Hill. She’d be great on the next Big Bang Theory or How I Met Your Mother. She was dramatically underused on Partners (and the show was terrible anyway). 3) MAMIE GUMMER Sure, she was given a craptastic failure of a show in Emily Owens, MD, but she was fantastic in … Continue reading 10 Newly Unemployed Actors Who Deserve Another TV Series
