No Mio Review: Sabrina Carpenter’s Coachella Set Was Big…But Missing One Thing

April 13

Looking for a Sabrina Carpenter Coachella 2026 review? Here’s the only one you need to read, because it’s the only one that asks the question no one else is asking:

Where is Solo Mio?

First Impressions
Sabrina Carpenter’s performance at Coachella 2026 is exactly what you’d expect from a rising pop headliner.

– Big stage presence
– Polished production
– Strong crowd engagement

It was such a massive moment, and a well deserved spotlight on one of the biggest stars in the world.

She was confident, it was well rehearsed, high energy, inclusive and fun.

But as I watched and tried to have a good time…something felt off…something was missing.

Thousands of people.
One of the biggest stages in the world.
And yet…

No Solo Mio?

Not even a surprise appearance.

I mean, I’m just asking the question we’re all thinking…

How do you headline Coachella without including Solo Mio, Matt Taylor?

Final Verdict
Is it a great performance? Yes.
Is it a defining moment? Probably.

But at the end of the day, where was Solo Mio?!

Project Hail Mary Review (No Mio): The One Thing This Sci-Fi Story Is Missing

March 24

No Mio Review: Project Hail Mary

Let’s say you’ve been sleeping under a rock…and no, not The Rock, and NO, NOT ROCKY in Project Hail Mary…but a normal rock you would sleep under…the concept of a No Mio Review is simple:
I take a piece of content, be it a movie, a tv show, and album, anything really, and evaluate one critical factor…

Is Solo Mio in it?

In the case of Project Hail Mary…the answer is no. And boy oh boy, does that disappoint!

What Is Project Hail Mary About?
Project Hail Mary follows a lone astronaut tasked with saving humanity from extinction. It’s a story built on science, isolation, and well…humanity.

Which raises an obvious question:
Why would you send one man into space…and not include Solo Mio?

From a technical standpoint, Project Hail Mary delivers:

We’re talkin’ great storytelling!
We’re talkin’ emotional depth!
We’re talkin’ compelling performances!

But ya know what we’re not talkin’? Solo Mio.

No surprise cameo.
No vocal support.
No last-minute save.

Just… no Mio.

Final Verdict

Is Project Hail Mary engaging? Yes.
Is it well written? Absolutely.
Are the performances amazing? You betcha!

But at the end of the day:
It needs more Mio!

No Mio Review: Love Story – Where Is the Solo Mio?

March 20

Welp. I watched the hit new show, Love Story. And for a show titled Love Story, you’d sure expect some Solo Mio, Matt Taylor. I mean, he’s the definition of a Love Story!

And while the show is full of great performances from Sarah Pidgeon, Paul Anthony Kelly, and Dree Hemingway…who has an insane likeness to Daryl Hannah…the show is missing something!

In fact, I’m questioning the entire historical accuracy of this show. There is definitely a missing piece.

What Is a No Mio Movie Review?
A No Mio Review is a quick comedy movie review where I examine films that seem good, interesting, or even great — but are missing one key thing:

Solo Mio’s Matt Taylor.

Because sometimes a movie doesn’t need a rewrite, a bigger budget, or a new director.

Sometimes it just needs a little more Mio.

Hoppers Movie Review – Amazing, But The Film is Missing One Thing

March 9

In my latest No Mio Movie Review, I take a quick look at Hoppers, a movie that is honestly, so so fun!

The premise is weird in a good way (I think this is how most people describe me), the animation looks great, and the cast is unreal. On paper, it feels like the kind of movie that should absolutely work.

But while watching the trailer, I noticed something very important.

Something that keeps happening in movies lately.

They’re missing Solo Mio’s Matt Taylor.

Now, I’m not saying every movie needs Matt Taylor to succeed. But I’m also not not saying that. Imagine the possibilities. Imagine the energy. Imagine the slightly chaotic charisma he could bring to the whole thing.

Would it fix everything?
Maybe…I mean, maybe he can fix everything in life TBH.
Would it improve things?
Almost certainly.

That’s the premise of my No Mio Movie Review series: quick, completely fair, and highly scientific evaluations of movies that are missing the one ingredient Hollywood keeps overlooking.

Watch the full short review below.

No Mio Movie Reviews – Good Luck Have Fun Don’t Die (Spoiler: IT RULES…with one exception)

March 6

I watched the movie “Good Luck Have Fun Don’t Die” and I’m here to tell you…it sorta rules! Don’t worry, no actual spoilers…but Gore Verbinski is in his bag, Sam Rockwell gives a performance for the ages, Haley Lu Richardson does some pretty intense nose bleed acting, and the rest of the cast is unreal. Not to mention, an amazing script from Matthew Robinson.

Check out a more detailed review below, because, to be honest…it was missing one thing.

Let me know what you think, did it rule? Yeah, duh.

Chain Wallets From 1995 are Naughty!

December 16

Oh man, first up from Santa’s Naughty and Nice List in 1995…chain wallets are #NAUGHTY

Makes sense! Santa doesn’t want Rudolph’s antler getting tied up in his sweet Harley chain that hangs far too low but he wears just in case..,so he doesn’t lose it and it’s always connected to him???

WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF CHAIN WALLETS!!

Santa’s Naughty and Nice List from 1995!

December 16

listen…I’m sneaky…some would say, as sneaky as they get!

has my sneakiness led towards me stealing Santa’s naughty and nice list every year despite increased security at the north pole? you betcha. after all, I am all Ocean’s 11.

but this year…couldn’t do it.
it’s been a rough year.

so I found the jolly one himself and I apologized…not because I’ve stolen the Naughty and Nice list every year, but because it’s been a rizzler-less, 6-7, brain rot summer into seasonal depression, a ted sarand-oh-no’s of a year…low aura, high-yap, touch grass…gross.

the big man gets it. so he gave me the naughty and nice list. not for this year…but for 1995.

enjoy the vibes, and hard launch going back to then.
