Power Rangers at 25
It's Morphin' Time! Today is the 25th anniversary of one of my favorite 90s TV shows: Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. It premiered on Fox Kids on August 28, 1993 and ran for three seasons. It's one of the longest-running kids' live-action series in television history. In 2019, Beast Morphers will be the 26th season in the Power Rangers franchise.Almost 900 episodes, three movies, and 25 years later, it's still going strong, thanks to the die-hard fans around the world that are passionate about their fandom. They show that passion by posting Power Rangers related stuff on social media, whether it's cosplay or them at a photo of them at a convention with their favorite stars. With the news earlier this year Hasbro has acquired the rights from Saban Brands to make Power Rangers action figures and other toys starting in April 2019, fans believe that the future is bright.

One Gal’s Thoughts: 'Bachelor in Paradise' - Week 2
Since discovering the show during season two, I have looked forward to watching Bachelor in Paradise every year. At first, I felt a little silly getting so involved in a dating show, but now I unashamedly admit that I love it! I have watched a couple seasons of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, but they just don’t compare to BIP. Single guys and girls coming in at all times, looking for love makes for just the right blend of romance, comedy, and drama.

'Heist!'
Heist! at The Players Theater is a funny, campy spoof on a robbery gone bad. The musical begins with Jack, Chris and Betty robbing a bank. Chris gets shot in the process and is reportedly dead. Chris was Jack's best friend and by his death he is done with the robbery game. Instead, Jack has been reduced to the three monte card game con, one in which he is not good at. We find out later that he had a short term fling with Betty in the hopes of easing the pain over Chris's death. In his quest to get rich as a three card monte expert, he meets Patricia (Blair Medina), a street musician, and pick Pocket, and con women. He is intimidated by how well she works the streets and how much money she makes.

Ten of the Best Romance Manga to Date. Top Story - August 2018.
Ever since I can remember, I always loved to read. I could escape into a fantasy world or another reality where I could escape my own. I had no knowledge of the great expansive manga collections out there until I was introduced to the art form in middle school where I quickly became addicted. I have always been a sucker for a good romance, so I quickly found that my favorite genre of manga was, and still is, the shoujo, rom-com genre. Here is a list of what I believe to be some the greatest romance manga out there.

Speechlessly King Lear
The deterioration of Lear's mind and speech, the psychotic shrieking of his daughters, the destruction of the stage itself: the trajectory of McKellen's King Lear is geared head-on towards anarchy. Every semblance of order is disrupted in an assault on notions of both the anatomical body and the body politic. Sibling rivalries are paralleled against one another, political structures are broken down and the physical body is, shudderingly, torn apart.
