Watchmen series creator Damon Lindelof's been making the most of the social distancing/self-quarantining time we're finding ourselves in. First, there was the "Washmen" video reunited a large chunk of the cast to push everyone into safer hand-washing practices (more on that in a moment). Now, the creator of HBO's pseudo-sequel/"remix" of Dave Gibbons/ Alan Moore's classic comic […]

Welcome back to Westworld – err… figuartively speaking, not talking about the actual park. Because HBO's pretty much burned to the ground by now. This week's episode is a cerebral journey through the near-future and an exploration of self as several characters seek the answer to the question, "Who am I?". We were given a […]

Just because it's been a few months since we last visited HBO and Damon Lindelof's pseudo-sequel/"remix" of Dave Gibbons/ He-Who-Doesn't-Want-To-Be-Named's classic comic book series Watchmen doesn't mean the cast has stopped thinking about us. In this time of social distancing and self-quarantining caused by the coronavirus pandemic, Regina King, Tim Blake Nelson, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, […]

What did you think about this past week's second episode of Westworld season 3? If your response is, "I haven't seen it," then you probably want to go watch it or read my review on it before proceeding. Now, if you happened to stick around after the episode, you would've noticed a lot of clips […]

Welcome back to another episode of HBO's now inappropriately-named Westworld! Despite the name, the titular park hasn't really been the main setting since the first season… unless you want to go with some kind of "metaphor," I guess… but I digress… Hope you like Maeve (Thandie Newton), because this week's episode was a very Maeve-centric […]

What a difference a few weeks makes, eh? When Amando Iannucci's new comedy series Avenue 5 premiered back in mid-January, viewers and critics reacted with bafflement and confusion. The show stars Hugh Laurie as the hapless captain of a luxury space cruiser that gets thrown off course. Instead of a six-month jaunt through the galaxy, […]

Our first observation about the official trailer for HBO's upcoming romantic comedy thriller Run from executive producer Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag)? It comes across more as a "horror-thriller", but I have a feeling there's a lot more dark and dry comedy that lies beneath this new series – slated to hit the cabler on April 12. […]

HBO's Westworld kicked off its third season in big, bold, and daring ways Sunday night. Bleeding Cool made its thoughts about the series' return known – you can check out Eden Arnold's review of "Parce Domine" here; as well as Adi Tantimedh's additional thoughts on the season premiere here. But now we get a chance […]

Time for another episode of "Westworld Speculation with Eden"! No, this isn't totally about fan theories, but more of a look ahead at the season and speculation as to where it all could be headed and what we may be in for next Sunday evening. Now, in case you weren't already clued in, this of […]

HBO's Westworld season 3 is the Cyberpunk thriller I had in my head when I was a kid, finally brought into reality. This is supposed to be future Los Angeles? It doesn't feel like Los Angeles. The light is too overcast. Oh. This was shot in Singapore. Amazing that Singapore began as a small island […]

I know it's bleak out there, but that didn't stop people from tuning into HBO to catch the season 3 premiere of Westworld. In fact, it probably helped a few more people tune in – because let's face it, playing checkers against your cat is only so fun for so long. If you've been tuned […]

The Hunt is sort of a box office disappointment– barely making the giant waves some expected after its free publicity over its controversial violent premise. But that's likely as much to do with the social distancing we're all practicing to slow the spread of coronavirus as it is the film itself. While the film is […]

We've been wearing our excited anticipation on our sleeves for Joss Whedon's (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Avengers) upcoming "wild, Victorian, X-Men-meets-Sherlock-Holmes-meets 'girls-with-super-powers' mash-up" (direct quote from series star Denis O'Hare) HBO series The Nevers. In fact, check out The Bleeding Cool Top 30 TV Series Influencers 2020 list, where we go into more detail on why […]

HBO's never one to let a moment pass them by – case-in-point? Sunday night's third season premiere of Westworld, which the cable giant knew would draw in a large amount of eyeballs (especially considering our current "social distancing" lifestyles). So why not use that time to start pushing the rest of your 2020 programming plate […]

Okay, first up: if you're not up-to-speed on Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy's Westworld? Make sure to check out HBO's recaps of the first two seasons here before the third season's unleashed tonight. If you're all caught-up, then we've got two fun Sunday distractions to get you in the mood for tonight's series return. The […]

With Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy's Westworld returning to HBO this Sunday, March 15, the cable giant has been doing everything it can (no spoilers) to get viewers psyched for what is a game-changing third season. But then they realized that maybe some of you procrastinated and didn't binge the first two seasons in time – […]

Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy's Westworld returns to HBO this Sunday, March 15 – so to honor the occasion, viewers have been treated to a rollout of some very cool looks at the third season. We've seen recaps of previous seasons, a behind the scenes video where the cast and crew show us how the […]

HBO, Chernobyl creator Craig Mazin, and game writer/creative director Neil Druckmann surprised a lot of us out there when the trio announced video game franchise The Last of Us was being adapted as a live-action series. Fans of the video game will be excited to hear that a familiar name has come on board the […]

The season/series finale of HBO's adaptation of Stephen King bestseller The Outsider was a vicious, violent bloodbath of fear, revelation, and some level of resolution. We say "some level" because, yes – by the time the credits rolled on "Must/Can't", we could easily make the argument that the first season told a complete story. But […]

We can now add New York City-based late-night shows to the list of programs being impacted by concerns over the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. In a joint decision made among the shows, CBS' The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, NBC's The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and Late Night with Seth Meyers, and Comedy Central's The […]
