If you're like me, the show Goosebumps was originally a staple on your bookshelf before it was twenty minutes of a visual haunting.

Welcome back to another round of BCTV Sunday Slices, our little slice of opinionated heaven where your resident "man-child" (long story, but I realize now that people throw out phrases they actually don't have the ability to understand so that's sad) looks back on the past week in Bleeding Cool Television's (BCTV) coverage to see what[...]
I have been a big fan of the push for diversity lately. As Latina and growing up outside the US, I never realized how little Latino representation there actually is given that I was constantly surrounded by channels and artists who looked like me. Once I grew up and moved here, it became painfully clear […]

Well, hello. The long-awaited trailer for the fifth season of Netflix's Lucifer dropped yesterday and… wow. I still have my jaw wide open and probably watched it about seven times already. After having to wait more than a year for its return, feels like the wait was more than worth it. When the series set […]

Netflix's A Series of Unfortunate Events hit the streaming platform in 2017 with a lot of discussion of star and executive producer Neil Patrick Harris, but also the discussion of how dark the series was.

HBO Max has made a splash in its first few weeks of existence, but what should not be surprising is that the most popular show on the platform wasn't Game of Thrones or Friends, but their Looney Tunes cartoons.

Because of public anger at the police, shows like S.W.A.T. suddenly don't have the […]
Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max, Peacock, plus whatever Quibi's trying to do: all these streaming services are making my head spin. I mean, really, you're telling me I have to sign up for like seven different streaming services all for a few shows on each (HBO Max the latest)? Yes, companies all want my hard-earned […]
Are you missing the days of President Josiah Bartlet (Martin Sheen) from NBC's The West Wing? Yes, he was fictional, but they were still better times, to say the least, even though he was the fictional amalgamation of Presidents Bill Clinton and George W.
