  • Could Bran be the Key to the Game of Thrones Spin-offs?

    28/05/2019
    Like fellow OutofLives writer Ben, I enjoyed the ending of Game of Thrones. Were the final episodes to the same standard of the previous seasons? No, there was a fairly significant decline in quality over the past few years, but considering the silly decision to condense the ending into...

  • Enjoying the Game of Thrones endings

    23/05/2019
    Unlike most of the Internet, or at least the most visibly boosted tweets and comments, I liked how Game of Thrones ended. This isn’t meant as a controversial statement nor as an excuse for the bad parts of the last two seasons. This article is, in part, for me...

  • Forget Game of Thrones, Barry is HBO’s – and TV’s – Best Show

    14/05/2019
    Game of Thrones is the biggest show on TV, and it has every right to be. For 8 seasons now it has grown into a mammoth global hit because of its tremendous writing, intimate character drama and increasingly epic scale. It’s one of my favourite shows, not just of...

  • Nine Out Of Nine

    08/05/2019
    After an eternally long wait; Season 5 of Brooklyn Nine-Nine arrived on Netflix a few months ago and I’ve since bought Season 6 on Prime which is updating weekly. I absolutely love the first 4 seasons of the show, so to finally have the 5th season available has been...

    With the recent release of Avengers: Endgame, the first saga of the Marvel Cinematic Universe – ‘The Infinity Saga’ – is complete. 22 films over 11 years is an unprecedented feat, even more so when you consider not one of them is bad. There are certainly bad moments and...

  • Line of Duty

    01/05/2019
    I’ve just finished watching the first 3 seasons of Line of Duty on Netflix (UK) which feels like an excellent time to take a break and write about it. This may get a bit spoilery later on, so keep an eye out for the warning if you don’t want...

  • What Does Endgame Set Up For The Future of the MCU?

    30/04/2019
    This article contains spoilers for Avengers: Endgame. Duh. Avengers: Endgame marks the end of the MCU’s ‘Infinity Saga’, acting as a colossal conclusion to this 22-film epic narrative. The film’s greatest success is just how satisfying a conclusion it is, ending character arcs a decade in the making and...

  • Predicting the Story of the Star Trek Picard Series

    16/04/2019
    The following is pure speculation fuelled by unsubstantiated rumour and is intended to be a bit of fun. Don’t expect my musings to be true, but then again, stranger things have happened… Jean-Luc Picard’s return to Star Trek is fast approaching, with the still untitled ten-episode series starting production...

  • Predicting the End of Game of Thrones

    09/04/2019
    We’re just days away from the beginning of the end: the final six episodes of Game of Thrones. While the journey may indeed be more important than the destination, I just can’t help myself from speculating how the acclaimed fantasy drama, the biggest show of the decade, will come...
