While we are growing the show and taking it to some place sustainable, what are some Patreon exclusives you would like to see besides what we are already summoning from the depths?

2019-06-12 16:33:26 +0000 UTC View PostChapter Three: The Trial of Sabrina Spellman
As far as TV adaptations of the short story “The Devil and Daniel Webster” go this is probably my favorite. Stephen Vincent Benét wrote the story in 1936 to satirize Civil War era statesman Daniel Webster. In “The Devil and Daniel Webster,” popular speaker and actual real person Daniel Webster takes up the legal defense of the doomed Jabez Stone who ...

I wanted to write you an update about my weekly essays on Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. I've recently stumbled into a boatload of freelance work which, yay for me, but it has also taken some time out of my other projects. My delvings into that weird show will pick back up next Friday.
Thanks Creeps

2019-06-02 02:58:22 +0000 UTC View PostThere's an issue with this show that I haven't really talked about, so for this next section I want to take a step back and think about something on a larger and more abstract scale. (Don't worry, I'll get back to the episode by episode recap writing next time). Namely, what I want to talk about here, is the idea of property and the role and function of the real estate agent. There's a long tradition in Marxist and leftist thought when it comes to writing about housing. It functions as one of...

The is a double feature, covering episode two and three of season one of the Santa Clarita Diet as I think that these two episodes are essentially one long episode that was split into two - it concerns Shelia’s attempts to figure out the practicalities of her new diet and the ways in which the show deal with the theme of consumption

Satan, Mr. Scratch, the “god of this world¹,” has been a recurrent pop sensation for centuries. They (or she or he depending on which version you’re into) have gone through dozens of reboots, retcons, and updates throughout the years. When the Prince of Lies pops up in pop culture, we are necessarily interacting with several hundred years of devilish history. The Ch...

SCD #1.1
Zombies are, by this point, boring. They became ubiquitous at least around ten years ago and are, by now, shambling shadows of the heydey of Romero - cheap cash in props which long lost the ability to be genuinely scary. What this means is that Santa Clarita Diet is a pleasant surprise as the recently cancelled Netflix show is barely about zombies in the first pla...
