Samsung Q90R QLED TV (2019) Last year’s Q9FN was arguably the best TV in 2018, but it didn’t come without some major issues or complaints. However, the South Korean giants clearly listened as they have practically fixed every issue with the release of the Q90R QLED TV. Gone are the criticisms of the poor viewing angles and overly aggressive local dimming. Featuring a new Ultra Black Elite filter that delivers deep blacks without losing shadow detail. The Q90 is able to deliver images that can directly compete with an OLED, with natural colors, bright highlights, deep blacks, and well-defined shadows. It can also surpass any OLED when it comes to HDR, with images that are often breath-taking in their detail and dynamic range. This is an amazing 4K Television and…

For many gamers the Call of Duty franchise peaked with Modern Warfare 4, with each subsequent entry failing to live up to the original classic that changed the first-person shooter genre forever. 2019’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare isn’t a sequel to the classic released years ago. Instead, developer Infinity Ward call it a re-imagining of the Modern Warfare series. With the reset of the storyline, the developer hopes to create a relevant and realistic world that matches up with real-world events in 2019. But will this be enough for the flailing series? A kick up its bottom and getting it back to the top where they feel they belong? The biggest return for many gamers is that of a single-player campaign, with the return of familiar characters from the…

Not much compares to the drama and mystique of a Game 7 in the World Series - but a Game 6 is as close as it gets. One team enters with a chance to clinch a World Series title, while the other is battling to keep its season alive and force one of those winner-take-all Game 7s. Past Game 6 classics have etched into our collective memory the names of Hall of Famers who lived up to their superstar billing and role players who had career-defining moments. Certainly, there is no definitive way to measure the “best” of the past Game 6s, and fans of different teams will certainly have conflicting opinions on the matter. But in an attempt to come to an objective answer, we first narrowed the list…

Confession time: The exasperating, tight-belted bureaucracy shackled to Maserati’s insurance means that up until this moment I’d never driven a Maserati. Not the Ghibli, Quattroporte, GranTurismo or Levante, and as a rule-of-thumb we usually turn down the corporate hobnobbing aimed more at wooing clients than giving hands-on demos to the media. So it is with a fair amount of emailing and strict ‘no racetrack’ caveat that we’re in the Levante S – currently the sportiest Levante on sale. The problem when you’ve never driven a particular brand is that one forms a prejudicial web of ideas which may or may not be accurate. Here’s mine: ‘Reused Chrysler’. Hardly the sort of clean jump-off point for a review, I’ll admit. But they are beguiling machines and the Levante S feels like…

“You can never be overdressed or overeducated.”– Oscar Wilde WHO IS YOUR CELEB CRUSH? Christian Bale. He has that element of mystery and control I love in a man. WHAT IS THE ONE THING ABOUT YOURSELF THAT YOU WISH MORE PEOPLE KNEW? That I was a bit of a tomboy in my youth. I never played with barbies or dolls. I made mud weapons. Climbed huge trees. Rode my bicycle off to strange places. The whole modus operandi . WHAT DOES YOUR TYPICAL DAY LOOK LIKE? Absolutely ferocious. I work during the day as a paralegal and then drive an hour each way to attend law school four nights a week. Although, I pride myself in executing a glamourous style, most mornings I am lucky enough to get out the…

Top 16 TV Shows ...of 2019 (so far) Barry (HBO) Barry is a hitman attempting to escape his life of killing in order to pursue his true love, acting. Season 1 was a great dramacomdey that set up the character of Barry brilliantly. However, it was season 2 that truly set the show apart from its peers. The writing, the directing and the acting across the board became even more layered, deliberate, and gripping. The age-old question whether it’s possible for a person to live a good life even though his past doesn’t seem to allow it comes to the fore constantly and it’s brilliantly handled. It’s darkly hilarious and includes the introduction of some of arguably the best side characters this year. Better Things (FX)…
