    Teacher of Reality
    Allison Mattern is a high school English teacher who shamelessly loves reality television. She's a dog person, but owns three cats because she's lazy and they're easier to take care of. She spends most of her free time grading papers, but sometimes gets to watch her favorite shows, and sometimes she gets to write about them.

    Another Take: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016)

    Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is a welcome return to the wizarding world.

    The Magicians 1.13 “Have You Brought Me Little Cakes?”

    Now, that’s how you do a cliffhanger.

    The Magicians 1.12 “Thirty-Nine Graves”

    It feels weird to say this about the penultimate episode leading up to what’s bound to be a bloody and violent meeting with The Beast, but this episode was a lot of fun.

    The Magicians 1.11 “Remedial Battle Magic”

    My first reaction after watching this episode of The Magicians was “Quentin, you are an IDIOT.”

    The Magicians 1.10 “Homecoming”

    Allison Mattern
    TV
    March 27, 2016 0
    In a departure from last week’s super serious tone, this episode is all kinds of awkward and features tons of sex.

    The Magicians 1.09 “The Writing Room”

    Allison Mattern
    TV
    March 20, 2016 0 1
    This was a perfect episode in every way, adding even more depth and layers to the narrative- now we not only have a villain, but we have a villain with a creation story that we are interested in unraveling.

    The Magicians 1.08 “The Strangled Heart”

    This episode of The Magicians featured a pair of particularly violent deaths, one to a furry friend that was extremely NOT humorous in the vein of cancer puppy, and one to a character that I didn’t expect.

    The Magicians 1.07 “The Mayakovsky Circumstance”

    I can’t help but feel disappointed because the time spent at Brakebills South in Antarctica was so short and felt so rushed.

    The Magicians 1.06 “Impractical Applications”

    February 28, 2016 0
    This episode of The Magicians cranks up the gore and the sex appeal to great effect and offers up three pretty big surprising moments.

    The Magicians 1.04 & 1.05

    The best part of The Magicians, for me, has been the balance the writers have been able to find between silly and serious.

    The Magicians 1.03 “Consequences of Advanced Spellcasting”

    Allison Mattern
    ReviewsTV
    February 7, 2016 0 1
    The latest episode of The Magicians begins with a newly returned, and blinded, headmaster giving a lecture on how dangerous magic can be.

    The Magicians 1.02 “The Source of Magic”

    Allison Mattern

    January 31, 2016 0
    As I suspected it would be, the second episode of The Magicians was a HUGE improvement over the first.

    The Magicians 1.01 “Unauthorized Magic”

    The Magicians comes out of the gate with an uneven start, but ends with just enough intrigue to keep me coming back.

    Their creature is pretty much a hot mess.

    There’s a lot of foam and clay sculpting in the workroom just like in Face/Off, but then they bring in the puppeteers for a practice session!

    I mean, you can say that it’s a show about men and these particular men and how they treat the women in their lives--but that also has nothing to do with random, prolonged boob shots.
