Nope, still not convinced. Something still feels off. Girl from Nowhere: The Reset doesn’t feel as discordant in Episode 2 as it perhaps did in...

It isn’t an accident that Stacy and Preston Clyburn’s kids have been so generally unlikeable throughout The Madison. In Episode 3, “Watch Her Fall”, it...

Episode 2 of The Madison is a little weaker than the pilot, if you ask me. Not by a big stretch, granted, but there has...

It’s very hard to consider The Madison as a spin-off of Yellowstone, which is sort of what it has been advertised as. Part of a...

Okay, we’re definitely doing the Mickey and Boone thing. Sheriff Country has been beating about the bush in that regard for weeks, but now that...

There’s always a bit of an eerie quality to real-life parades and celebrations being targeted, so Boston Blue is treading quite a thin line in...

I suspect that jetting around the world hunting crazy serial killers is pretty high-stress, as far as jobs go, but even by the usual standards,...

Characteristically for a show like That Night, which takes an unusual approach to what is ostensibly a crime thriller all throughout its runtime, its ending...

You shouldn’t be too complacent with That Night, which at first blush looks a lot like a thousand other Netflix crime thrillers. The Spanish ones...

There’s basically no monster action in Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, which you should probably be aware of. It’s fine, though, since you can have too much of a good thing. Season 2 only has a limited budget, and Episode 3, “Secrets”, is all about putting in the emotional, character-driven groundwork that is going to make the inevitable monster action later feel more resonant.

Everybody has a breaking point, and The Pitt Season 2 has hit the stage where several characters are experiencing theirs at the same time. Episode 10 has mommy issues on multiple fronts, terrible bedside manner, petty squabbling, another godforsaken degloving injury, assisted suicide, a missing leg, a missing son, and even more foreshadowing about Robby's inevitable motorcycle-related demise. Where to even begin?

And there it is, folks. The big twist! Or the nearest The Last Thing He Told Me Season 2 can get to one of those, anyway, which admittedly isn't saying much.

Much ado has been made about Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, a reception that I’ve discussed briefly before. More so than ever, the finale solidifies my...

It’s probably best to think of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Episode 9 as the first half of a two-part finale, since “300th Night” certainly has that feel about it. School’s out. The Academy freshmen are due to graduate, and they plan to travel to Betazed with the rest of the fleet to see in the official designation of the planet as the Federation’s new capital. What could possibly go wrong?

So, the sun sets on another season of Virgin River. As expected, the season 7 finale is packed with more twists and turns than the...

How could I possibly put into words the predictable, almost hypnotic rhythm of Virgin River? Don’t be misled – I’m not saying the show is...

After quite a long wait, One Piece Season 2 has finally arrived on Netflix to pretty glowing acclaim. Balancing the brazen weirdness of the manga...

We’re almost there, folks. And based on Episode 7, “Winnow”, there probably aren’t that many surprises remaining in Cross Season 2. Sampson’s subplot seems to be rather unceremoniously wrapped up here; Rebecca’s revenge plot has only one logical place that it can really go, and Kayla seems to have deduced who Mastermind is and sent Bobby Trey to tie up the loose end.
