Warrior is the best TV show you haven’t heard of. It’s a period drama set against the backdrop of the Tong Wars in the late nineteenth century, when Chinese gangs fought each other in a variety of American cities, especially San Francisco. Most of the characters, including leading man Ah Sahm (Andrew Koji), are involved in one Tong or another, and much of the drama revolves around the Tongs trying to get one over on each other. So not only is Warrior a crime show, you could argue that it’s a true crime show, even if it’s not documentary-accurate. And…
It’s the 21st century, and our lives are busy. We have to worry about work, connect with family and friends, tend to our health, follow the news, and somehow squeeze in some entertainment to make sure we stay sane. Who has time to sit down for the 3-hour-plus Avatar movies (which aren’t that great anyway)? Where are the sci-fi movies that keep our busy schedules in mind? These seven sci-fi movies are worth your time, even if you don’t have much to spare. Source Code (2011): 89 minutes Action-packed, star-studded, and done before bedtime Let’s start with something pretty straightforward:…
After driving the refreshed Tesla Model Y earlier this year, I said it was the best electric car I’d ever been behind the wheel of – and I meant it. It was the most complete Tesla to date. But then the Model Y Performance showed up a few months ago, and improved my favourite electric car in almost every meaningful way. Tesla hasn’t simply bolted on a spoiler and called it a day. Yes, it’ll now do 0 to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds, which is completely absurd for a family-friendly SUV, but there’s more to it than that. Read…

2025 is nearly over and we’re ready to call the hits and misses of the year in TV, starting with the misses. A lot of high-profile shows aired in 2025, both old favorites returning for another season and brand new series out to prove themselves. In this article, we’ll talk about the ones that didn’t. We’ll talk about the shows that returned but didn’t meet expectations. We’re not saying all of these shows are terrible or even that bad, just that they let us down for one reason or another. IT: Welcome to Derry IT? More like… IT: Welcome to…
Avengers: Endgame is still one of the highest-grossing movies of all time. But since then, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has lost a bit of its luster, with box office returns shrinking year after year. Marvel will try to turn this around with next year’s Avengers: Doomsday, which will feature franchise mainstay Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man) returning in a new role: the villainous Doctor Doom. Teaser trailers for Doomsday are set to start airing this weekend before screenings of Avatar: Fire and Ash—which, if history is any guide, will pack people into theaters (even if the Avatar franchise itself is…
The continuous advancements in display technology have significantly improved the picture quality in modern TVs. Display technologies like QLED, OLED, and QNED are great at providing a solid watching experience, but the Achilles’ heel of modern TVs is sound quality. Whether you buy a budget TV or a flagship model for a couple of thousand dollars from the likes of Samsung, Sony, or LG, you still won’t get the best sound. You can buy a soundbar or a home theater system to get better sound, but if you don’t have the budget for that right now, you can use the…

Named chief executive officer of iRobot back in May 2024, Gary Cohen has a 25 year history of leading successful turnarounds – good news for the robot vac company! Previous roles were at Qualitor Automotive, Timex, Energizer and Gillette. In this interview he talks to us about making iRobot swim, his love of tech and being a Boston boy.
