The Season 1 finale of American Gods, Episode 1.8, aired this weekend, and you can check out the episode of our podcast, The Dominant Paradigm, about it. But for now we’d like to go over the details of Episode 1.7. Below you’ll find a written recap of the episode, followed by some salient points regarding Mad Sweeney’s history and Laura’s newfound shame.
For followers of The Dominant Paradigm Podcast, please hop over here to listen to podcast Episode 7, A Prayer for Mad Sweeney.
On Doctor Who, after chasing the Monks from Earth, and bringing the Ice Warriors back to the galaxy, The Doctor (Peter Capaldi), with companions Bill(Pearl Mackie) and Nardole (Matt Lucas), arrive in ancient Scotland, right in the middle of where the Picts and the invading Romans are supposed to be. But everyone seems to have disappeared… and something sinister is roaming the land.
During TARDISblend 108, we discuss the final one-parter of Season 10, the return of Rona Munro from Classic Doctor Who with her first writing effort for Nu Who, and look towards the finale with questions and predictions.

Blood Drive Season 1 Episode 1: “The F…ing Cop”
Directed by David Straiton
Written by James Roland
Created by James Roland
Starring Alan Ritchson, Christina Ochoa, Thomas Dominique, Marama Corlett, Colin Cunningham, Andrew Hall, Darren Kent Syfy
Air Date: Wednesday, June 14th, 2017, 10pm
Midnight Grindhouse debuted Blood Drive Wednesday night on Syfy. With a story straight out of a cheap schlocky drive thru double feature, and promising splatter effects akin to Peter Jackson’s early filmography, James Roland’s Blood Drive offered something wholly different from what you’re used to in mid-week cable dramas. Cars with engines that devour human beings, heroes that curse, and all sorts of horror-themed “grindhouse” characters… Blood Drive has it all. The previews promised all sorts of “grindhouse” inspired baddies like cults, cannibals, monsters, and all the raunch you can throw in. Plot and acting are not what is important here. This show proudly attempts to be as in your face and graphically visceral as possible. I’m genuinely excited to see not if the show crosses the line, but how far past the line the show can go.
