Growing up in a place like Arizona puts immigration into a real perspective, and when Papers Please came out, I found myself looking at it first through the scope of a gamer and then through the […]
Marvel Turns to Netflix to Expand the Ever-Growing MCU
If you’ve been paying attention to nerd news outlets today you’ll probably have already heard all about this but Marvel (and Disney) are teaming up with Netflix to bring FOUR new live-action Marvel series to the service. Yeah. Even though I already heard about this just writing out that sentence […]
What the Hell is Going On With "The Vampire Diaries"? (Divided by Characters)
Seriously. This is a legitimate question. So if you have been around with Nerdophiles long enough, you know that I am a pretty big fan of the show The Vampire Diaries and I recapped every episode last season. So why, have I not been recapping this season? Well coupled with laziness […]
"The Originals", "The Tomorrow People", and "Reign" Get Full Seasons, But Should I Watch Them?
The fact is that The CW can be really good at producing good television, and underrated shows, but also at some pretty bad shows. It was announced yesterday that their new freshman shows The Originals, The Tomorrow People, and Reign will be getting full seasons and that they have ordered the episodes. Great […]
As Frightfully Inaccurate as "Reign" Can Be, The Show is Addicting
So if you aren’t familiar with The CW’s new historical roll out of Reign, you probably should be. I have to say, if The CW is good at anything, they are good at getting even the cheesiest of plots to play out with some longevity. Unlike Fox, I think we can […]

Nerdophiles Picks: Top Halloween Episodes
Not every show can be a horror show, but plenty do dip into the realm of Halloween when it becomes that time of the year again. Plus, it’s just a good excuse to dress your cast up in awesome costumes. Here are my picks for my favorite Halloween episodes of […]
A Love Letter to The Nightmare Before Christmas
“‘Twas a long time ago, longer now than it seems,” that Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas was released–twenty years ago, to be exact. The film is nearly as old as I am, and I count the characters of Tim Burton and compositions of Danny Elfman among the most influential […]
