Netflix are having a phenomenal run with their animated content at the moment, with Pluto arriving out of nowhere as a best-of-the-year contender only to...

Maybe it’s just me, but I wasn’t as enamored with Episode 4 of Culprits as I have been with Season 1’s first three installments. It’s hard...

It’s probably safe to say at this point that the heist didn’t go especially well. Just like in Episode 2, the third episode of Culprits Season 1,...

There was a time not long ago when the idea of a decent film or TV show adapted from a video game was laughable. In...

Black Cake has a lot going for it. It’s adapted from the same-titled New York Times bestseller by Charmaine Wilkerson. It’s fronted by Mia Isaac,...

In easily the best and most bombastic episode of Billy the Kid Season 2 thus far, the Lincoln County War officially starts, the Regulators are...

War is on the horizon in The Winter King Episode 9, and Arthur’s ability to meet it head-on is increasingly coming into question. Season 1...

With Episode 8, we’ve officially reached the midpoint of Strong Girl Nam-soon Season 1, and it has honestly been a fun journey to this point....
