Spock (Ethan Peck) and Chapel (Jess Bush) are involved in an accident, and the aliens who caused it repair the shuttle, and the injured Spock, but his mixed DNA causes problems, so they use Chapel as the guideline, and make him human in Charades. Written by Kathryn Lyn and Henry Alonso Myers this episode debuted…

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Season 2 4K Steelbook
I loved Star Trek: Strange New Worlds when it debuted. The first season introduced us to new and familiar characters and put us aboard a beloved, but different, starship, the Enterprise. Anson Mount leads the cast as Captain Christopher Pike, and the first season won its way into hearts of fans and critics across the…
Scrooged (1988) – 4K
The endlessly quotable (‘The night the reindeer died’ stays with me!) Bill Murray holiday film, Scrooged hits 4K from Paramount Pictures just in time for the holidays. A riff on the classic Dickens’ tale, A Christmas Carol, Bill Murray brings the laughs in this delightful film helmed by the legendary Richard Donner. Murray plays Frank…
Transylvania 6-5000 (1985) – Rudy De Luca
They aren’t all going to be winners as I continue to sink my fangs into the vampire chapter in DK Canada’s Monsters in the Movies book. This stinker from 1985 boasts a pretty solid cast, but is terribly written (and directed) by Rudy De Luca. Jeff Goldblum and Ed Begley Jr. share the dubious honor…
The Princess Bride (1987) – Rob Reiner

Director Rob Reiner gathers a fantastic cast that includes Peter Falk, Fred Savage, Robin Wright, Cary Elwes, Mandy…
Annie Hall (1977) – Woody Allen
The final recommendation following Manhattan in the Great Movies – 100 Years of Film book is the Academy Award winning Annie Hall. And while even now, I don’t understand how this film beat out Star Wars for best picture, I can admit it was pretty good. Except for the fact that I don’t think Woody…
