Imagining the Curtailed Future of Minx Through Viva. Top Story - December 2022. Created with: OG Collection.
One of the latest casualties of an overhaul of HBO Max done by Warner Bros. Discovery was Minx, a comedy centered on a semi-fictional erotic magazine for women published in 1970s Los Angeles. Despite a strong critical response to the first season, which premiered on March 17, 2022 and holds a 97% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, new leadership at the streamer pulled the series even after a previous renewal and days ahead of production wrapping on the second season. Co-executive producer and star Jake Johnson has since said that filming will wrap and that the Minx team is hoping for a new home for the show.

Why "Warrior Nun" needs to be your next binge watch. Top Story - December 2022.
Warrior Nun is one of the best Netflix originals the streaming giant has to offer. When I began watching its first season in July 2020, I had zero expectations going into it. I simply saw two words that I never associated being together and thought "huh! I wonder what kind of warrior shenanigans these nuns can possibly get into?"

I Never Thought I’d Be An Artistic Person. Top Story - December 2022.
Growing up as a sheltered, fearful, religiously-influenced child, I had no idea what my future was going to be like. I’ve felt fairly lost in life compared to many others around me. I was not a confident kid, young adult, or even a middle-aged man until recently.

A Robot's Lost City. Top Story - November 2022.
I have always been incredibly fascinated with the fact that Studio Ghibli films have a specific sense of nostalgia. I want to believe this is a sentiment for everyone who enjoys Ghibli films because, for me, they represent both a gleeful childhood and a vessel that allows us to find magical and meaningful moments as we grow older.

Double Date with The Muppets. Top Story - September 2022.
Kermit the Frog detested Tiktok because people do silly things like cooking chicken in cough syrup. The current trend was double dates with strangers. The Jim Henson Company had picked up on this. He hoped by now that he would be swimming in the Bahamas. However, his agent had other plans. He was sworn in to do a skint of videos. If it wasn’t for his dearly beloved Miss Piggy, he would have retired from the show business years ago.

Word count goals can be poison for your creative writing.. Top Story - September 2022.
I've written a lot of words. Eight novels worth, plus a bunch of short fiction too. Counting words is second nature to me. It's great for reflecting on what you've achieved, after you've achieved it.
