Seemingly conceived as an answer to the question “How much torture can be included in an hour of television?”, the finale of Mayor of Kingstown Season 4...

If Landman was trying to give me advice about relationships, I wouldn't take it. None of the ones in this show seem to work out.

I’ve realised against my better – and indeed professional – judgement that I’ll forgive Stranger Things for just about anything, so long as the core...

This is it. The last big brainstorming session before the bumper finale. The last chance for every character to get a few things off their...

Let me be the one to say it. Given how long it has taken to bring Stranger Things Season 5 to life, and how much money has been spent on the endeavour, there is absolutely zero justification for Episode 6 looking as bad as it does.

The first volume of Stranger Things Season 5 ended in such a big, satisfying, and social media-savvy way that it was basically impossible that Episode 5, the premiere of Volume 2, was going to live up to it.

It might have taken until Episode 5 for Spartacus: House of Ashur to properly return to the sands of the arena, but "Goddess of Death" was worth the wait.

Palm Royale has already reached peak silliness in Season 2, and it doesn’t seem likely to slow down any time soon. Episode 7, “Maxine Plays...

It’s probably fitting that Fallout, of all shows, devotes some time to side quests. There’s an argument to be made that this isn’t the best way to structure a television series, and that Season 2 is already moving a little bit slower than it should be, but there’s a very valid counter-argument that Episode 2, “The Golden Rule”, is fun enough for it not to matter.

Timing is everything. This has been true of Pluribus all the way through, but it’s especially true of the finale, and not just because it...

Pro Bono is getting a little better episode by episode. You can wonder if that’ll end up being enough – and, given the general predictability of the structure and the lack of a real stand-out original “wow” factor, it probably won’t be – but it’ll do in the meantime.

All credit to Robin Hood. It might have taken its time to get where it’s going, but Episode 9, “I Choose You”, feels like it has arrived at that destination.

I spent most of my time with Elway, Netflix’s definitive profile of Hall of Fame NFL quarterback John Elway, waiting for bad news. As an...

Watching I Love LA is like watching a car crash in which all the victims just happen to be provocatively dressed in designer brands. That...

Well, that's how you do a penultimate episode, isn't it? Mayor of Kingstown has always been at its best at the tail end of a season, and that seems to be holding true for Season 4, since "Teeth and Tissue" is riveting stuff.

I’ve realised what it is about Landman that I find so fascinating and peculiar. Originally, I mistook it for the show not really having a plot, but in Season 2, especially, that isn’t quite accurate.

Just like with Boston Blue, the midseason finale of Sheriff Country is one of its stronger episodes – and right on the back of an uncharacteristically weak one.

It took all season for Boston Blue to get good, only for it to reach its dramatic high point just in time for the midseason finale.

The Great Flood starts out as a very compelling disaster movie, but it almost becomes a disaster of a movie on the back of its...

A lot has been made of Ashur's suitability as the protagonist of a Spartacus spin-off, but as of Episode 4 of Spartacus: House of Ashur, I'm starting to see the logic.
