Slow Horses Season-Premiere Recap: Red Flags

by

The shocking violence of this scene feels disturbingly relevant today, and it presents a significant shift for a show usually focused on the clumsy antics of a mismatched spy team and their complicated relationship with MI5. It’s more than just a wake-up call; the brief conversation between the campaign worker and the shooter is particularly impactful. While intelligence agencies typically spend considerable effort understanding a suspect’s motivations, the victim instantly grasps them. Later, MI5’s report on the shooter, identified as Rob True, reveals a painfully predictable profile: a man who felt rejected by women, ignored by society, and threatened by changes to his sense of British identity, wanting to inflict his pain on others. It’s a sadly familiar and unoriginal story.

Platonic Recap: The Anus of Los Angeles

I appreciated how the episode didn’t immediately focus on the tension between Will and Sylvia. Sylvia was a little annoyed when Will brought up their complicated relationship, but she had other things on her mind. She’d been offered a full-time job as an event planner at Cabo Carrie’s, and she wasn’t sure she wanted to work that much. However, her marriage was really struggling. Charlie was busy writing his book and wasn’t helping around the house, their foster dog was being aggressive towards visitors, and when Sylvia jokingly wished she was divorced after hearing about Katie’s free time, Charlie got angry.

Blade and Soul Heroes Tier List – Best Heroes

by

Blade & Soul: Heroes has a lot of playable characters, so I’ve created three different tier lists to cover them all.

Saying one Hero is the ‘best’ would be inaccurate – even a Hero considered weak overall can be very strong in the right situation. Instead, my rankings focus on Heroes who consistently perform well across a wide variety of game modes, prioritizing those with the most overall strength and high ratings based on:

Peacemaker recast Vigilante for a mysterious reason and fans want to know more

It’s pretty normal for actors to be swapped during a movie or show, either right before filming or even while it’s happening. A good example is the character Peacemaker, which was initially intended for Dave Bautista. Similarly, in the Lord of the Rings films, Stuart Townsend, who was first cast as Aragorn, was replaced by Viggo Mortensen after only a few days of shooting.

Steam redesigned store. Mobile layout met with praise and criticism

by

I’ve been checking out the new Steam store interface, and I’m seeing a lot of chatter on the r/Steam subreddit. One thing people are really liking is how, when you click the search bar, it shows these big, popular search icons. Honestly, that’s a great move – not just for mobile users, but for *everyone*. It makes things way easier to navigate, especially if you have trouble with your eyesight or, like me, are an older gamer who appreciates a clear interface!
