Heath Andrews has been a student of pop culture ever since he found himself to be the only student in 3rd grade who regularly watched "Get Smart" on Nick-At-Nite. Ever since then he's been engrossed in way too much media with a growing collection of music, books, comics, TV on DVD box sets, and a video game collection that could rival a brick and mortar store. Prior to writing for Nerdbot he's written for Review You, MyAnimeList, and various advertising companies.

Over the last couple of years, we’ve had a lot to say about Armie Hammer. The beleaguered actor saw his career disintegrate through the 2020’s thanks to a number of allegations and leaked messages. Hammer basically lost everything, started working on an island, and struggled to cope with a changing life. We’ve covered a lot of his issues and tried to be respectful to see where his path led him. Now, Hammer is speaking out with a new interview. Armie Hammer Today Hammer had a lot to say to The Hollywood Reporter recently. It’s an interesting interview that covers a…

It’s no secret that the television industry is hurting something fierce. The major American networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, and Fox, are all struggling. Terrestrial television viewing has dropped off substantially, and the cost of programming has caused cancellations to abound. “Cord-cutting” is on the rise, and it’s not just here in the States. England’s premier broadcasting network, the BBC, is also struggling. It’s even harder for them being a government-funded channel. The new boss of the broadcaster, Matt Brittin, knows this and is planning some major cutbacks. Swinging the Axe You know it’s not a good sign when Brittin issued…

Acclaimed director Steven Spielberg is in the news lately thanks to his alien thriller, Disclosure Day. The movie is by no means the first time he’s done something involving visitors from another planet. After all, this is the guy who gave us Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. He also gave us the Indiana Jones franchise, which is decidedly more grounded on Earth. Or it was at least until 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. That film turned the franchise in a direction that many took issue with. Apparently, those people included…

In 1971, the United States opened the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Not only does it serve as a memorial to America’s 35th President, it’s a testament to the power of art. Performance art specifically and how it is its own unique form of expression. In 2025, aspiring dictator Donald Trump, wanted to add his name to it. A back and forth has followed that is now going back to the courts. The Fight for the Kennedy Center Before we launch into a quick recap and discuss where things are now, we should make one thing very…

MobLand is the kind of show where just the cast alone makes you take notice. Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren, and Tom Hardy; those names carry gravitas. Tie them all together in a show about a London crime family, and you’ve got great television. You also apparently get a lot of great drama off the screen. The show has been making waves over whether or not Hardy will be involved in a potential third season. We want to cover a bit of the back and forth, but also defer to Dame Helen Mirren. Why? Because the Dame is setting the record…

Some authors strike gold consistently. Some find it, lose it, find it again. I would consider Bret Easton Ellis to be in that second group. His first three novels, Less Than Zero, The Rules of Attraction, and American Psycho, are all wonderfully strong. After that, it gets…messy. I’m not sure it’s possible if it could get any messier than 2023’s The Shards. It’s one of the worst books I’ve ever read, and FX has just released a teaser image for the upcoming series based on the novel. What is The Shards? The Shards hopefully won’t follow too deeply in the…

Hulu has had a bona fide hit on its hands with its comedic mystery, Only Murders in the Building. Across five seasons, they’ve attracted several guest stars. The already acclaimed cast consistently features Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. They’ve been joined by Sting, Meryl Streep, Eugene Levy, Eva Longoria, and the list goes on. As the upcoming season six moves the cast over to London, though, the guest stars are following suit. It’s definitely going to “spice up your life,” so to speak. For the sake of spoilers, we won’t go into exactly what happened at the end…

There was a time when Home Improvement was the biggest show on television. That might seem like a far off year. For those of us who lived through it, it’s almost depressing to think about how long ago that was. Tim Allen may have been the star of the show and the only one who would go on to be a pop culture staple but the show wasn’t his alone. Home Improvement was as strong as it was because of the family dynamic. Just as many episodes, if not more, were about the Taylor household than Tim blowing things up.…

It is with extremely heavy hearts that we report that actor Anthony Stewart Head has passed away. An extremely talented presence on the screen and the stage, Head was a wonderful vocalist just as he was an actor. Buffy and Beyond Most people know of him thanks to his tenure on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He played Buffy’s “Watcher,” and school librarian Rupert Giles. He made his mark on the fandom by being the kind of reliable father figure that Buffy never had in her life. This wisdom and gentleness was also matched by elements of sarcastic humor and surprising…

Sony’s State of Play ran for about an hour and fifteen minutes on June 2nd, 2026. We’re going to condense all that into a rundown that tells you everything that was presented and our brief thoughts on the featured games. No more introduction needed, let’s get to it. Wolverine There was quite a bit of footage shown of the game to kick things off. If you’ve played Insomniac’s Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2, then it seems like this isn’t far removed from those in terms of action. The big differences are the amount of gore on display and how Wolverine is…
