The Rewatch 50: Bread and Circuses.

Posted on by sokorra

Blogger’s Note: I was called back to work (my store is now considered ‘essential’ so I won’t be able to watch as many episodes in one day as I have been. That being said, I have watched all of TOS, and the reviews are up in my draft list ready for some editing. I’ll be attempting to post one a day at least, adding any new reviews to the draft pile. For those looking for my history essays or book reviews, I’ll be peppering those in as well.
