hello world!
Hey fellow nerds! Before you dive back into that gaming session or start your next binge-watch, here’s the deal with Couch Soup: we’re a completely independent pop culture site run by genuine fans who get just as hyped as you do about the latest games, comics, movies, and TV shows. No corporate overlords, no AI-generated content, just real people who know their Metroid from their Mass Effect.

Unlike the big corporate sites, we don’t chase clicks or stir up drama. Sure, we might have some hot takes (looking at you, controversial season finale), but they come from a place of genuine passion and respect for the creators and fandoms we cover.

Want to support what we do and join what we think is the coolest community of pop culture enthusiasts on the internet? Check out our supporter tiers – each packed with perks that’ll level up your fandom experience. Every contribution helps keep us independent and lets us keep nerding out with you!

Thanks for being part of our quest – now, back to our regularly scheduled geekery!

There is something magical in the air; something Hex-y you could say, something ARCANE! Join Couch Soup contributors Lily K, Thomas Richards and Iain McParland for Watching Now: Arcane, discussing Season 2 Act 3’s ups and downs. After last week’s shocking turn of events, Caitlyn, Vi and Jinx regroup, but not before we catch up with Ekko, Heimer and Jayce. The team discusses highlights from the FINALE of Season 2 where Ekko makes a heartbreaking decision after seemingly getting everything he wanted, Mel escapes from the Black Rose with some surprising new abilities, and Victor goes a little bit cult-leader crazy on us. Will there be a happy ending in the FINALE of Arcane? Well, there’s some interpretation to be had, so buckle up!

There is something magical in the air; something Hex-y you could say, something ARCANE! Join Couch Soup contributors Lily K, Thomas Richards and Iain McParland for Watching Now: Arcane, discussing Season 2 Act 2’s ups and downs. A few months have gone by after Caitlyn and Ambessa declared martial law. The team discusses highlights from the middle episodes of Season 2 where Caitlyn has regrets about becoming a dictator, there’s a reunion for Jinx, Vi, and a surprising third family member, and Victor continues to be Shimmer Jesus. Can Zaun find its way out from the bottom of Piltover’s boot? And, will we ever stop crying after THAT ending? No. 

No we will not.
