Posted: December 13, 2010 at 7:29 pm   /   Another Take From Zac, Local, Television Reviews

I know, I know!  “It’s been over a week since the finale and three weeks since your last review; what the hell!”  Well I will just blame Thanksgiving, deal?  Any who, the first season has ended for the Walking Dead and while I enjoyed it I hope that the second season allows them to flesh […]

New Teaser for HBO’s “Game of Thrones” Based on Martin’s “Song of Fire and Ice”

Posted: November 30, 2010 at 1:12 am   /   Local, Television News

The more I see for the George R.R. Martin based series Game of Thrones premiering on HBO in 2011, the more excited I get. Although, each moment of excitement gives me a little startle of fear. The fear is that a show like this can’t possibly last on HBO. Shows like Deadwood and Carnivale both […]

Another Take By Zac: TV Review: The Walking Dead 1.4: Vatos

Posted: November 24, 2010 at 6:10 pm   /   Another Take From Zac, Local, Television Reviews

Vatos, The Walking Dead’s fourth episode, sees the return of zombie action and a large chunk of the cast won’t be back for week 5. The Atlanta plot line didn’t really move that much forward this week other than the discovery of a new batch of survivors in a nursing home being protected by a […]

Another Take By Zac: TV Review: The Walking Dead 1.3 Tell It To The Frogs

Posted: November 17, 2010 at 8:16 pm   /   Another Take From Zac, Local, Television Reviews

The third entry into the series is the least zombie filled episode yet, and while that was a tad disappointing, focusing on the humans was almost just as engaging and compelling as the rest of the series. Thankfully we find out, and maybe this was expressed last week and I just missed it, that the […]

Another Take By Zac: TV Review: The Walking Dead 1.2: Guts

Posted: November 12, 2010 at 7:25 pm   /   Another Take From Zac, Local, Television Reviews

“Guts” is the second episode in this first season of The Walking Dead and the intensity and creativity of the series is still in full swing. Again the episode primarily focuses on Rick and his adventures in Atlanta and how the hell he gets out of that tank we left him in.  Surprisingly the solution […]

Louis Leterrier Bringing “Y: The Last Man” To TV Instead of the Big Screen?

Posted: November 11, 2010 at 1:32 pm   /   Local, Movie News, Television News

Anyone who knows me, knows I’ve been following the production of Y: The Last Man intently for years. I’m a huge fan of the graphic novel, and I think it could easily become a quality film. Although, I’ve not been impressed with the people attached to the production. D.J. Caruso was the first director attached, […]

Another Take By Zac: TV Review: The Walking Dead

Posted: November 3, 2010 at 7:33 pm   /   Another Take From Zac, Local, Television Reviews

The Walking Dead premiered this Halloween on AMC and is another great step forward for the network and TV in general. The pilot introduces us to the tip of the iceberg of this world and oh what a world it may be.  Having never read the graphic novel series I might be inclined to pick […]

Great Comic Book Series Without Superheroes

Posted: March 30, 2009 at 12:32 pm   /   Featured, Local, Opinion

I encounter them every day, people who don’t realize that the comic/graphic novel is a growing art form not meant for just superheroes wearing spandex. Some of the best stories I have ever read have been serialized in comic book form.  Respect for the form is growing, but not quick enough. Here are a few […]
