Street Hawk - Vegas Run television review

Throwback Tuesday takes us back in time to when a motorcycle cop turned vigilante helped keep the streets of Los Angeles safe on an experimental bike known as Street Hawk. Jesse (Rex Smith) and Norman (Joe Regalbuto) try to protect a Las Vegas showgirl (Sybil Danning) from her ex-boyfriend (Christopher Thomas) and his goons who will stop at nothing, including kidnapping her sister (Christie Mossman), to prevent her from testifying against him. The main story is notable for Danning’s character making Norman uncomfortable and Jesse thoroughly confusing Lt. Cmdr. Altobelli (Richard Venture) on how a federal witness wound up staying at his apartment. The action scenes showcase Street Hawk going off-road (somehow without running into any of those pesky trees at super-speed) and fighting of a helicopter to get the witness to the courthouse in time.

Scooby-Doo! - Scooby's Night with a Frozen Fright television review

Throwback Tuesday takes us back to Scooby Doo, Where Are You! for another mystery involving some meddling kids and their talking dog. After catching a frozen caveman on the beach, Mystery, Inc. return it to Professors Wayne (John Stephenson) and Ingstrom (Don Messick) at Oceanland who apparently collect cavemen as well as fish and lost the artifact in a storm. Returning to the facility to retrieve Shaggy‘s (Casey Kasem) fishing pole, the gang discover the block of ice melted and the caveman walking the halls of Oceanland. When one of the professors vanishes and the other begins acting oddly with an unusual device, the gang have a pair of suspects and, although they don’t know it yet, a motive for the caveman’s appearance. Although the caveman turns out to be one of the show’s more forgettable monsters, the mystery works well enough to keep the episode rolling until the gang unmask the villain.

MacGyver - Rails + Pitons + Pulley + Pipe + Salt television review

In Kazakhstan, MacGyver (Lucas Till), Desi , and Riley (Tristin Mays) race to prevent the new version of Codex from getting their hands on Department of Defense secrets. The episode is notable for Mac continuing to try and take larger risks to shield anyone else from harm. However, while he’s scaling a cliff to prevent the intel from being broadcast back to Codex home base, Desi and Riley do just fine on their own taking down the mercenaries thanks to Riley using her own version of MacGyver magic in turning a warehouse against the soldiers. As for Codex, Team MacGyver is left with more questions than answers as it seems the new variation has different motives than the Codex they fought in the past.

Darth Vader #10

Darth Vader #10 comic reviewDarth Vader #10 continues the “Into the Fire” storyline of Darth Vader continuing to fight for his life. The end of the previous issue foreshadowed Vader’s journey to Exegol, the Dark Lord of the Sith won’t make it to the planet until the final panels as he faces a couple more challenges in a Summa-verminoth and a trio of Imperial Star Destroyers all intent on preventing Vader from reaching the planet.

Very much a middle issue of the arc, pushing any interesting reveals about Exegol to the next issue (at the earliest), Darth Vader #10 is an issue which you could skip over and not miss much. The issue isn’t bad, it features Vader’s impressive piloting skills (something Star Wars usually only showcases with Anakin prior to his fall to the Dark Side) and is notable some vivid hallucinations involving Vader and his son.

The Equalizer - Glory television review

Team Equalizer gets its first case when a single mother answers Robyn McCall’s (Queen Latifah) ad after her son is kidnapped by human traffickers looking for information in her boss’ safe. It turns out her boss (Charlie Semine) is with the FBI and the safe contains the name of a confidential informant within the trafficking ring. Detective Marcus Dante (Tory Kittles) continues to seek the mystery woman, including tying her to a recent double-homicide (where she saved to kids from the traffickers), but Robyn’s cause may have garnered a new friend in the FBI as her actions not only protect his witness but also lead to the discovery of a mole within his own team.
