This Is Us has been telling us from the beginning of the first season that Pearson family patriarch, and all-around GOAT Dad, Jack Pearson, died sometime before he got to watch his kids grow into adults, but they’ve been withholding the exact circumstances surrounding his death… until now. This Sunday, after the Super Bowl, the earnest […]

Five by Friday: Top Five Gilmore Girls Moments
To cap off our week of Gilmore Girls deep-diving, our Five by Friday this week is Gilmore themed as well! All three of us were huge fans of the show when it originally aired, and while our feelings on the revival are mixed, we still have a lot (a lot) to say about these characters […]
The Wasted Potential of Rory Gilmore
I’ve always had a sort of love/hate relationship with Rory Gilmore. Although I am only a few years older than Rory, I didn’t start watching the first season of Gilmore Girls until its penultimate season was already airing, so despite the fact that we were close in age and similar in many ways–I too was shy and bookish in […]
Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life is Truly Emily Gilmore’s Story
Going into the Gilmore Girls revival, there were a few things we were able to count on. Stars Hollow would remain the happy little town that it’s always been, Lorelai Gilmore would still be managing the Dragonfly, Luke would still be pouring coffee at his diner, and we’d find ourselves still wondering who Rory might […]
The Sorting Hat: Gilmore Girls
Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock or just avoiding the internet entirely (not that we blame you for that recently), then you are well aware that Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, the followup miniseries to the hit TV show, hits Netflix this Friday. The three of us at Avenging Force are EXCITED about this and […]
Anticipating the 2016 Fall TV Season: Returning Shows
We know what you’re thinking: with all the new shows we’re excited for, surely we have already filled up our schedules! Somehow, we haven’t.

Five by Friday: Top Five TV Pilots
Welcome to Five by Friday! It’s the beginning of fall, which can only mean one thing: NEW TELEVISION SHOWS. (Were you expecting us to say pumpkin spice everything? Candy corn? Trees losing their leaves? Boots and scarves? Too-early Christmas decorations? OKAY FINE, WE GUESS IT CAN MEAN SEVERAL THINGS.) In honor of all the new shows debuting this season […]
Five TV Characters Who Seem To Be On the Wrong Show
Do you ever find yourself watching a show and thinking to yourself that there’s one character who just doesn’t seem to fit in with the others? Something about them is just fundamentally incompatible with the rest of the show, whether its their personality or their life philosophy or their storyline. That doesn’t mean they’re necessarily […]
What We Want from the Gilmore Girls Revival
Amy Sherman-Palladino is back to write the much-anticipated Gilmore Girls revival, which will be airing on Netflix in four parts. Most of the original cast is back, and they have announced a slew of new roles as well. We are elated that we get to spend more time in Stars Hollow with this beloved cast […]
