War is coming, of that there can be no doubt. I suppose Chief of War would be a bad title if it weren't.

I don't think there's much point in moaning about Invasion's pacing anymore.

There’s quite a lot bundled up in the ending of The Thursday Murder Club. Not one whodunit but technically two, there aren’t just a couple...

Every now and again, a story – it could be a book, a TV show, a movie, whatever – is popular enough to redefine a...

The final round of the Twisted Metal tournament performs as advertised. Episodes 10, 11, and 12 are carnage from top to bottom, killing off the...

Apparently, documentaries about Hurricane Katrina are like buses – you wait ages for one to come along, and then you get two pretty much at...

I’ve been a bit sceptical of Alien: Earth hinging so much of its drama on the idea of kids in adult bodies, but Episode 4, “Observation”, makes me think it might have been in service of one thing in particular.

It occurs to me that The Terminal List: Dark Wolf suffers slightly from Ben Edwards and Raife Hastings being the least interesting things about it.

Maybe it's just me, but The Terminal List: Dark Wolf has real pacing issues.

Episode 3 of The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox begins by doing something that neither of the first two did, which is to attempt to characterise Giuliano Mignini.

Blimey, this is a bit serious, isn't it? The Terminal List: Dark Wolf lays its cards out on the table pretty early in Episode 1, and those cards read, roughly, "The American armed forces should be treated with paramount reverence and respect."

Here's a bold prediction about Platonic Season 2 -- I reckon Will is going to lose his job, and Sylvia's event planning business isn't going to take off.

Twelve has a superpower of its own, and while it isn’t animal-themed, it’s undeniably extremely effective – pace.

Bon Appetit, Your Majesty is, and I don’t say this lightly, possibly the most quintessentially “K-Drama” K-Drama that ever did K-Drama.

Is someone working on Beyond the Bar reading these recaps? It feels like it sometimes.

Stephen King is the most famous horror writer in the world, which is worth remembering sometimes, because The Institute isn’t really a horror story. It’s...

There’s something quite charming and simplistic about the mythological setup of Twelve, the anticipated Disney+ K-Drama based on zodiac signs about a dozen angels living among the humans of Korea and protecting them from an ancient evil.

Maybe it’s just me, but I think Beyond the Bar works better without a romantic component between the leads.

Since the very beginning, The Winning Try has been a superb show, but here in Episode 10, it reaches its zenith. Several developing subplots intertwine for a key cliffhanger, but that comes after several beautiful character moments.

The battle lines are being drawn in Episode 2 of The Rainmaker. Sure, you can make the case that they were already drawn in the premiere, but it’s nice to see everyone’s cards out on the table.
