The Small Screen Diaries: 09/21/25

TV Shows Watched: Daryl Dixon: S3E3 (AMC Plus) with audio description, From: S3E5 (MGM Plus) with audio description, The Terminal List: Dark Wolf: S1E5 (Amazon) with audio description, Have I Got News for you: S3E3 (HBO MAX) no audio description, Tulsa King: S3E1 (Paramount Plus) with audio description, and The paper: S1E5 (Peacock) with audio description Daryl Dixon- My addiction is the Walking dead. While I don’t think the first two seasons of the show were amazing, this third season seems at conflict with itself. it does everything from retread, to completely ignore character structures that have been set up … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 09/21/25

TV Shows Watched: Black Mirror: S4E5 (Netflix) with audio description, Platonic: S2E6 (Apple plus) with audio description, The Runarounds: S1E2 (Amazon) with audio description, The Terminal list: Dark Wolf- S1E3 (Amazon) with audio description, My Life With The Walter Boys: S2E3 (Netflix) with audio description, Red Fish Blue fish: S1E1 (Netflix) with audio description, Rick And Morty: S8E1 (HBO MAX) with audio description, Last Week Tonight: Most Recent (HBo MAX) no audio description Black Mirror- Metalhead is a disappointment. Basically Black mirror made The Terminator, but didn’t flesh out a world interesting enough for it to be in. we don’t … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 09/08/25

TV Shows Watched: Alien Earth: S1E4 (Hulu) with audio description, The Terminal List: Dark Wolf: S1E1 (Amazon) with audio description, The buccaneers: S2E6 (Apple Plus) with audio description, The Great north: S5E19 (Hulu) no audio description, All Of us Are Dead: S1E8 (Netflix) with audio description, Irish Blood: S1E5 (Acorn) no audio description Alien Earth- I love developing description. What I mean by that is description that continues to build the world, realizing there’s some element it could still mention, and perhaps didn’t earlier. Often this can come in letting us know a physical attribute we didn’t get in initial … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 08/27/25

Movies With pride: The Normal Heart

I believe fairly recently, I mentioned to someone why I was taking the opportunity to celebrate Movies With Pride in the month of June. I’m a blind film critic, and my driving force in life is to change the perspective on how blind and low vision people do actually enjoy films, and that there’s just this massive problem in terms of getting the accessibility we need on a consistent basis. This month, I made it a point to track down some titles I hadn’t yet reviewed, at least from my blind perspective that highlight the LGBTQ community in impactful ways. … Continue reading Movies With pride: The Normal Heart

The Too Much TV Roundup- 09/16/23

If all you have is Network TV, tonight you are in luck. CBS begins airing the first season of Yellowstone. Give it a looksie. Also, later in the week, look out for the season premiere of the new season of American Horror Story, as well as the final season of Sex Education. 12) Boy Meets World (Disney Plus) English Audio Description?: No Status: Ended I could have skipped this episode. It’s just this weird Halloween themed episode where Cory thinks he’s turning into a werewolf. However, it does bring Topanga back who hasn’t had anything to do in Season 2, … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 09/16/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- 09/09/23

I apparently need to binge Virgin River, because the internet can’t stop spoiling it for me. it’s been out for 3 days and has ten episodes. Everyone calm down. I know far too much about a season I haven’t watched yet. 11) Hey Dude (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: No Status: Ended I’m just surprised this is available, but it could use audio description. They do head out onto paths. I’m not sure if this was on location or on set, but I’ll guess on location just to allow the horses the freedom to go somewhere. But, Buddy hates living … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 09/09/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- 09/02/23

I saw the upcoming list of shows starting next week, and Virgin River is likely the one most worth mentioning. Though, I am really happy that I Am Groot got a second season. 14) The Lincoln Lawyer (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes Status: Renewed Good news for fans, the show got renewed. I actually enjoyed everything I saw yesterday, and this is on the bottom really for two reasons. The first being that this series is still not describing the Spanish dialogue. I’m working on my DuoLingo, and I’m not adept at this, other than picking up a few words … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 09/02/23

The Too Much TV Roundup-08/26/23

Disney Plus pulled the plug on The Spiderwick Chronicles TV show. It’s like, they say they want shows beyond just Marvel and Star Wars, but after cancelling Doogie yesterday, and not moving forward with this… do they? What is the actual plan here to not just fill your streaming service with franchise extensions from those two universes? Hell, I haven’t even heard if there will be a second season of Monsters At Work, which really felt like a no brainer. 13) Designing Women (Hulu) English Audio Description?: No Status: Ended you know when Anthony, who is usually just there for … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup-08/26/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- 08/19/23

RIP Ron Cephas Jones. Only 66. Wow. He’s sure to be known for his work on This Is Us, but he’s done many other projects, and just didn’t gain that level of recognition (or Emmy award) until that show. his daughter, Jasmine Cephas Jones is also a brilliant actress, currently starring on Starz’s Blindspotting. 13) Hey Dude (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: No Status: Ended I remember loving this show so much as a kid. It doesn’t even play to that young of an audience either. Yet, I find myself struggling to enjoy a show again that just feels under … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 08/19/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- 08/12/23

It is that time. Once again, I have no significant news. Someone needs to renew something for crying out loud. 14) Painkiller (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes Status: Limited I’m trying to keep an open mind here, but DopeSick was so good that this really needed to be terrific too. The pilot was kinda boring and fell short. The cast is comprised of actors I enjoy, but they don’t match the performances of the original DopeSick cast. The whole scene where we were waiting for something horrible to happen to Taylor kitsch was lazily written and dragged out. This feels … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 08/12/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 31st

Only three shows today. However, despite the fact I’ve talked previously to a handful of people “in the know”, none of them knew what I knew that came true yesterday. Showtime is now fully integrated as an add on to Paramount Plus, meaning you don’t need two different apps. This bodes well for audio description, which I will be complaining about post haste, as Yellowjackets at least (which is known to have existing description recorded) had none. 1) The Orville (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes I had no idea where we were going with this episode. Honestly, I didn’t know … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 31st

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 14th

I started a few more shows today, and sadly none of them reached the top spot. Sometimes, it takes time. 1) Only Murders In The building (Hulu) English Audio Description: Yes The winner today was everyone’s favorite gang of podcasters, who continue to try and solve the mystery of why they are being framed. but, it was the injection of some heavy hitting guest stars that sent this episode over the top, from Tina Fey’s unnecessarily cutthroat rival caster, Jane Lynch’s always welcome return as the one time stunt double, Amy Ryan’s deliciously evil killer, or Michael Rappaport’s exhausted lead … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 14th
