I’ve pointed out the potential of Brilliant Minds already, but I feel especially validated by Season 1, Episode 3, “The Lost Biker”. This, I think,...

Just like the field trip earlier in the season, the aptly-titled “Convention” gets the teachers out of the classroom. But even though Evan thinks that...

Love Next Door comes to a close with Episode 15 and Episode 16, and lo and behold, the K-Drama has a perfectly happy, upbeat ending....

I confess to having thought that Tulsa King Season 2 would start to intensify a little in Episode 4, but everyone’s wrong from time to time. “Heroes...

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon is improving, so that’s something. Season 2 is still wildly imperfect, but I didn’t spend Episode 2, “Moulin Rouge”, getting...

I respect the ending of CTRL, even though I don’t like the movie very much. It seems right to me that a techno thriller about...

Ever since Unfriended popularized the once-novel concept of a film unfolding entirely on someone else’s screens, there hasn’t exactly been a shortage of imitators. CTRL...

Travis Kelce is a handsome fellow, isn’t he? I bring this up since his much-advertised presence in Grotesquerie is the rare light spot in what...

Is Angela/Emily/Parwana dead? That’s certainly the question we’re left with by the end of The Old Man Season 2, Episode 5, though anyone who has...

I keep hearing that Agatha All Along is the gayest thing Marvel has done. I’m not sure what this means, or how this can be...

On the one hand, Tell Me Lies Season 2, Episode 6, once again appropriately titled “Do Your Dirty Words Come Out to Play?”, is a bristlingly effective...

Every episode of Where’s Wanda? is named after a family. The premiere focused on the Klatts, which is understandable since they’re at the very center of the...

“The Calm Before the Storm” is a well-known expression, but it applies to Episode 9 of Bad Monkey more than usual since there is literally a storm...

There’s a delicate balance to Where’s Wanda?, Apple TV+’s small-town German mystery series about a missing 17-year-old girl. Episode 1, “The Klatts”, is hilarious but deeply...

I wasn’t sure about Brilliant Minds after a mixed-bag premiere, but I’m pleased to report that Season 1, Episode 2, “The Disembodied Woman”, is a really good...

The main joke of English Teacher Episode 6 isn’t that funny when you think about it. The youth of today is so sensitive, coddled, and reactionary that...

Sophie Turner’s post-Game of Thrones career hasn’t exactly been prolific, which is surprising. Anyone who survives eight seasons of that show – especially the last...

Episode 2 of The Penguin, “Inside Man”, is as good as the premiere was, which got me thinking. Why? That isn’t a trick question. There...
