When the Phone Rings Episode 5 arrives after an additional week’s wait thanks to real-life South Korean political calamity, and while the episode obviously couldn’t...

I’ve been thinking about The Agency a lot, partly to try and figure out why I think it’s so dull, and what’s meaningfully different about...

I still like Creature Commandos, and I still think it has a lot of potential, but Season 1, Episode 3 made me wonder if the...

By the high standards already set by Silo Season 2, “Descent” is comparatively slow-paced. But don’t mistake Episode 5 for filler, since it’s anything but....

Before is, in a word, stupid. This won’t come as news to anyone at this point, but it’s especially ironic since it thinks it’s so...

I know what you’re thinking – everyone dies, right? Well, no, as it happens. The ending of La Palma subverts expectations in that sense, with...

What if your idyllic vacation retreat was trying to kill you? This is, essentially, the premise of Netflix’s Norwegian limited series La Palma, though admittedly...

Dune: Prophecy is a lot better when Desmond Hart is around, isn’t it? I suggested that in my recap of the previous episode, which brushed...

The premiere of Earth Abides was, in a word, bleak. And that set my expectations for Episode 2, “The Space Between”, which to be fair...

“Where Is Home” is one of those episodes you sometimes get in a Taylor Sheridan show where everything just goes to Hell. And Landman needed to go...

I’m still not convinced by The Agency. In Season 1, Episode 3, “Hawk From A Handsaw”, it gets so gratingly serious and so obvious and...
