March 25 2026

Even at its worst, Shrinking is still better than most dramedies... ever, really, which is pretty high praise. Season 3 has already threatened to fall into a bit of a holding pattern once or twice, and it does so again for most of Episode 9, which is titled "Daddy Issues" because it finally finds Jimmy's dad, Randy, sticking around for a full episode.

‘The Faithful: Women of the Bible’ Episodes 1 & 2 Recap – From a Different Point Of View

‘Rooster’ Episode 3 Recap – Greg’s First Day On Campus Goes Badly Wrong

March 23 2026

Thus far, Rooster has been much more of a comedy than a drama. The elusive balance that really characterises great Bill Lawrence shows like Ted Lasso and Shrinking is conspicuously absent...

March 20 2026

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters hasn't been slacking in Season 2, but I still think Episode 4 is the best of this run yet. "Trespass" doesn't quite have the character depth of the previous installment, and the flashbacks have almost entirely dried up now that we've established how Titan X connects to Santa Soledad and, of course, what happened between Lee and Keiko.
