Aaron is a movie fanatic. He is from Orange County, California, but earned a degree or two at UC Santa Barbara. He describes himself as a film reviewer, writer, podcaster, video game player, comic book reader, disc golfer, and a lefty. There are too many films, TV shows, books, etc. for him to list as favorites, but he can assure that the amount of film knowledge within his noggin is ridiculous, though he is always open to learning more. You can follow Aaron on Twitter @AaronsPS4, see what else he is up to at TheCodeIsZeek.com, and check out his podcast, Out Now with Aaron and Abe, on iTunes.

TV Review: FX’s The Americans 2×11, “Stealth”

TV Review: AMC’s Mad Men 7×4, “The Monolith”

We get a break from Betty this week, but Harry Crane is still in full force, as he now has the computer he has desperately wanted being setup in the office. Being that it’s 1969, this means an entire room…

Towards the end of this week’s episode of The Americans, we see two female characters strike up a cigarette, after completing their mission. While this is the kind of symbol that could suggest “job well done”, it comes at quite…
