My Top 10 Favorite TV Shows of All Time
#1 - The Haunting of Hill House (9.5/10) "Silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House." I cannot say enough good things about this incredible show. A limited series based on the novel by Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House will forever be my #1 favorite.

The Moment That Changed Everything No one saw it coming. Not like this. UFC 317 wasn’t supposed to be a coronation. It was meant to be a test. A war. A firefight between two of the most dangerous lightweights on the planet. But instead, it ended in just two minutes and twenty-seven seconds with Ilia Topuria standing over Charles Oliveira’s motionless body, his fists raised high as an entire arena erupted.

#1 - The Abyss, 1989 (9.5/10) A sci-fi masterpiece directed by James Cameron, released in 1989. I will not say anything else about the story here as I do not want to spoil it, but please understand, this film is criminally underrated.

John Cena’s Final Match? WWE Night of Champions 2025 May Have Just Ended an Era
I didn’t think I’d be writing this. Not yet. Not like this. But something happened at Night of Champions 2025 that felt… different. Not scripted different. Not the usual “we’re planting seeds for the next pay-per-view” kind of different. I’m talking about a knot-in-your-stomach, goosebumps-down-your-arms, “Is this really the end?” kind of different.

That means that there's going to be a much darker element to the story than usual. So, what does that mean for Peter Parker's journey?
