Dead Boy Detectives, Renegade Nell and A Good Book – Reviews

This week, Clayton, Sam, and Tamzyn are back to bring us some fabulous new shows and book reviews.

Kicking things off with “Dead Boy Detectives,” a captivating spin-off from the Sandman series. Tamzyn advises savouring this series slowly, noting, “You know it’s good when you want to string it out.” On the flip side, Clayton insists it’s too good to pause, advocating for a binge-watch. The burning question: will the team agree with Sam and her plot hole discoveries? And is that magnificent neck tattoo real?

Next, the team dives into “Renegade Nell,” sparking lively discussions about its unique setting in the brief reign of Queen Anne in the 18th Century. The question on everyone’s mind, is the character of Nell based on a real person? The team all agree the show delivers magic intertwined with breathtaking fight scenes.

Finally, the Geeks indulge in their favourite pastime: discussing recent reads in “A Good Book.” They ponder the hierarchy of paper books, digital books, and audio books. It’s a treat for our ears as they delve into titles like “Bored Gay Werewolves,” “Moriarty and the Silent Order,” and “Ghost Station,” among others.

Enjoy the fun!
