'Moone Boy': a delightful choice from Hulu
“Ever wanted to be the imaginary friend of an idiot boy in the west of Ireland? Me neither. But, there you go.”
Opened with a line like that, Hulu’s newest exclusive show
‘Moone Boy’ successfully brought a chuckle out of me. And thankfully, it only
transformed into a great laughter along the show until the credits have rolled.

Another ‘The Wire’ alum lands on AMC’s zombie drama
Mother. Of. God.
I just feel fucking excited and pumped, I want to brag about
this little detail on this blog.
I never told you before that among many series I watch, ‘The
Walking Dead’ happens to be the one I love the most. I mean, really
really love. It’s like my love for ‘Breaking Bad’ and ‘Arrested
Development’ combined, then you got the same amount of love from me for this
zombie’s series. Yeah, seriously. I’m not exaggerating.
So, earlier today, I watched ‘Walking Dead’ comic con
trailer for season 4. And I couldn’t be more freakishly hysterical when I saw a
long lost face from the legendary drug’s drama ‘The Wire’ on it. No, it wasn’t
Chad L. Coleman whom we’ve already seen in some episodes on season 3. It was
Lawrence fucking Gilliard Jr.!

Women get their spotlight on Netflix's newest prison drama
Obviously, Netflix did it again. After producing not one, but three hit series in the first half of this year, the streaming sites apparently refuse to catch a break and continue to surprise TV aficionados with its unusual, yet brilliant choice of exclusive shows. And ‘Orange is the New Black’ is definitely one perfect example to prove that point.
Centers on a woman in her 30’s, Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling), this Netflix’s newest original offers you a closer look to a life in female’s prison would’ve liked. And surprisingly, it doesn’t only give you a bitter and thrilling sense out of it, but also brings you a package of joy through its touching moments, smart lines, and perfect comic timing in between.
In this prison drama, we get to see Chapman’s life turned
upside down as she convicted for a crime she did 10 years ago as a drugs
smuggler. Use to have a good life with adorable fiance (played wonderfully by
Jason Biggs), Chapman then forced to leave it all behind when she decided to
surrender and live behind bars for the next 15 months.
