The First Look at This is Us Season 2

Several hours ago a clip was posted on Twitter revealing a first look of the new season of This Is Us. I did a happy dance first and then grabbed a pile of tissues just in case.

Slight spoilers are a head. If you don't know the events of the finale, I would recommend seeing that first before watching the clip.

In the scene, Randall and Rebecca are discussing adoption and the day that she and Jack adopted him. The moment was beautiful. The conversation felt real and some how still poetic which was something I love from the previous season. Rebecca makes this beautiful speech about marriage that just moved me.

When you have a chance, go check it out. This Is Us returns on NBC on September 26.

The Orville-A surprising series opener

Fox did not do a good job in advertising this. From the promos, it was selling a Star Trekesque space adventure with dirty Seth MacFarlane jokes.

Sci-fi programs of late have been dark and gritty with characters that were just too out there to connect with. The Orville was light hearted and fun.

Fights break out and an epic space battle charges on screen. The sets are slick and glossy which is surprising for something that initially seemed like an excuse to cosplay Star Trek. It's light hearted ho

It-A Review

For me, the mark of a scary movie is whether not I can sleep after watching one. After viewing It, I walked away terrified that Pennywise was around every corner ready to snatch me up. A sleepless night was in order for me. I can't even begin to express my awe over this production. The cast is superb. There can't be anything more that can be said about Bill Skarsgard other than creepy . His Pennywise the clown is probably the scariest clown I have seen to date. For the moment he appears in the drain, you know that he is evil. The makeup and costuming make him look menacing, scaring the pants off you at every turn. Even while just looking at him without dialogue, you are terrified. The child actors that make up the "Loser" Club are awesome. They managed to take the typical stereotypes of a clique and manage to make them unique and interesting. Bill was a character I could support and cheer for. I adored Richie and his foul mouthed behavior. Between the terror, h
