So, due to things in my personal life getting in the way there will not be a Ladies, What is Going On? post this week. Also, later this week I will be going on vacation so I won’t be posting anything on here for a couple of weeks. I should be back around the 20th or 21st, so my next Ladies, What is Going On? should be posted on the 29th when I cover the week of September 22nd – 28th.
With that said, I’m going to try and get my Favorites for the month of August and a couple more Charmed reviews up before I leave, so be on the lookout for those.
I hope you guys understand and I’ll be sure to give you guys more content as soon as I get back.

What Evolution Means to Me
When I was a little girl I adored the women of the WWE and was inspired by their strength, personalities, and beauty. Watching them every week made me want be better and stronger, just like them.
CW Released a Trailer for the Charmed Reboot
I wasn’t going to post anything about the the trailer for the Charmed reboot that was posted today, but I decided that I needed to write out my thoughts about this reboot. Honestly, after watching the trailer, I’m just not sure how I feel about it.
I really wasn’t happy when it was first announced that it was getting rebooted in the first place because I just didn’t understand why? Like if you want to make a witch show, go ahead. Why does it have to be a reboot of Charmed?
After watching the trailer I still stand by that statement. I think if this show wasn’t attached to Charmed it would be great, but watching the trailer all I saw were the similarities with the original. The house looked the same, the way they get their powers was pretty much the same, their powers were almost the same, it just felt too similar. You’d think the CW would want their new version of Charmed to stand out and not be compared to the original, but yet they copied so much.
Even though I have my reservations, I’m still going to give it a chance because I loved Charmed, Madeleine Mantock is a part of this cast (and I loved her in Into the Badlands), and I want to support her. I also want a Charmed show for my mom and I to watch again like we used to with the original.
I’m honestly hoping the similarities end after the first episode (which I’m pretty sure was most of the trailer) because that’s the only way this reboot is going to work. It can’t copy the original or else it will fail. Plain and simple.
Dear Paige,
Hello guys,
I just wanted to make a quick post informing you guys that I won’t be reviewing The Last Jedi until after it comes out on DVD/Blu-Ray. After doing my marathon and reviews of episodes 1-7, plus Rogue One, I’ve just determined I’ll be able to better explain my feelings on the film when I’m able to watch it in the comfort of my own home instead of in a theater. You’ll still get my general thoughts of it when I post my Favorites of December post some time next week, but as for a full review that will come later in 2018. Hope you understand and I hope you guys have enjoyed my reviews of the other Star Wars movies.

Star Wars Reviews Coming Soon….
So, to get myself even more hyped for the newest Star Wars film, I decided to have myself a marathon of Episodes 1-7, plus Rogue One. Then while I was watching them I decided that I’d review all eight films since I haven’t given my honest opinion of them. How my reviews are going to work is I’ll give my overall impression, give my pros and cons of each movie, and wrap it up with my star rating.
Now, before I start posting these reviews, I want to give a disclaimer that I didn’t grow up with these films. I watched Star Wars for the first time last year and since then have become a fan, but that doesn’t mean I’m not gonna hold back on the things that I do and don’t like about these films. So, if you don’t agree with my opinion, that’s fine, but please don’t attack me for not adoring these films like I know so many people do. I don’t have the same nostalgia that most people have when it comes to these films.
Now with that out of the way, I will start posting these reviews tomorrow and will review all eight films leading up to The Last Jedi’s release. Then I’ll go see that and review that as well. I hope you guys will enjoy these reviews and please let me know your thoughts of each one, respectfully though.
Sense8 Cancelled?!
So, I was on Instagram, and was just scrolling through, and paused on this really cute picture Freema Agyeman had posted of Nomi & Amanita.
I was about to just scroll past it until I started to read her caption. As I read, I had to reread it because I couldn’t believe it. Then I went searching online for confirmation that this was true, not saying I didn’t believe Freema, but I needed some more confirmation. Seeing all these articles talking about Sense8′s cancellation broke my heart and filled me with anger.
Sense8 was a show that I didn’t really know anything about when I first started watching it, but I quickly fell in love with the characters, the story, the setting, and just the production of this show. When season 2 came out I was so excited to see what happened next with these characters that I loved. Season 2 was just as great as season 1 and the ending made me so excited for season 3. So knowing that I’m not going to see what happens next or know the fate of these characters angers me so much.
To the cast and crew, thank you so much for bringing this wonderful show into my life and I’m so sorry you won’t be able to tell us more of the story.
To Netflix, you just made the stupidest mistake ever in cancelling this show.

My Journey with The Vampire Diaries: Series Finale Review (SPOILERS)
Eight years ago, I sat in my living room and watched excitedly as one of my favorite books at the time became a TV Show. I remember feeling giddy, nervous, and cautious.
How different would this show be to the books?
Would the characters be the same or different?
Would I spend the whole show comparing it to the books?
Will I like it?
