Dubbed “the girl of a thousand voices,” Christina has performed on major television programs such as The Ellen Degeneres Show and The Today Show. Her debut live album, Life Of The Party, is available on iTunes and other major music platforms.

This week, we're going to get a little self-indulgent! We're talking about the no-holds-barred weirdness of 'Doom Patrol' on HBO Max, indulging every whim inspired by the strange DC comic. We're talking about the slow burn of 'Midnight Mass' on Netflix, which rewards those who stick around, and the slow burn of 'Foundation' on Apple+, which seems likely to not. And we're talking about David Chase's Sopranos fan film 'Many Saints of Newark' on Netflix.

This week we ask the musical question: Why would you make that? Blending together Star Wars and anime on Star Wars Visions on Disney+ is actually the least crazy thing this week. There's the forgettable Ordinary Joe on HULU. There's the Korean sci-fi weirdness of Squid Game on NETFLIX. And there are certainly some weird gems in Les's rundown of Fantastic Fest.

This week, we're talking about Family Matters! That's right, it's time to talk about the reboot of a beloved ABC family show... no, not that one, Doogie Howser gets a new look and new locale with 'Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.' on Disney+. Then there are the complicated family matters of Irish gangsters in 'Kin' on AMC+. And the less-than-stellar family drama that is puzzingly at the head of FX's adaptation of 'Y The Last Man'. Check it out!
