Rooster was always going to be good. A dramedy from the creators of Ted Lasso, Shrinking, and Scrubs, starring Steve Carell as a bumbling author intervening in the spiralling love life of his daughter and her cheating husband against the backdrop of a liberal arts college campus? Sometimes these things just write themselves.

DTF St. Louis is that rarest of things, a mystery that is genuinely mysterious. I have no idea who killed Floyd, or why, or what his prior career as a nude male model or his curved penis might have to do with any of it. And that's just the way I like it.

When it was revealed that Season 2 of The Pitt was going to be set on the Fourth of July, everyone envisioned a lot of firework-related nastiness. In Episode 9, over halfway through the season, we finally get some of that. But it’s the least of anyone’s problems in PTMC.

At first blush, DTF St. Louis is a show you've seen before. The HBO murder-mystery is about three people circling the drain of a sexless middle age, and one of them turns up dead, casting the other two in suspicion. It isn't the most unique of elevator pitches.

Industry Season 4 was never going to have a happy ending, since happiness doesn’t exist in or indeed anywhere near this show. How can it? It’s...

Industry Season 4 is now proceeding with such full-throttle end-of-run HBO primetime confidence that every hour is a new delight, often in a different way...

George R. R. Martin himself has said that the death of Baelor Targaryen is one of the most significant moments in Westerosi history, one of...

Not to be hyperbolic about things, but "Dear Henry" is a properly masterful hour of television. When I talked about how Industry Season 4 gets better as it goes along, this is the kind of thing I was talking about.

Delayed gratification is the art of making someone wait for something they definitely want, and it’s an idea very neatly displayed in Episode 5 of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

In its limited screentime thus far, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms has done a pretty remarkable job of communicating a much more hopeful tone than you’d necessarily expect from a show set in the same brutal universe as Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon.

There are a lot of good ideas in “Eyes Without a Face”. It's the first proper out-of-office hour of Industry Season 4, which is always nice, sending two underused characters to a far-flung location on a side mission that rattles the foundations of the main plot.

And there it is, ladies and gentlemen. The big reveal of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms finally arrives in Episode 3, "The Squire", and it's about time, too, since virtually everyone watching the show will have figured it out already.

Industry is about the worst people in the world, partaking in an endless stream of deplorable and immoral activities. This is as true now as it...

If Henry and Yasmin's extremely toxic and bizarre marital life constituted a bit of a break for Industry Season 4, then Episode 3, "Habseligkeiten", is HBO's drama getting back to business.

If we're being honest, there isn't a great deal going on in Episode 2 of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. It's one of those classic, early-season "getting to know you" outings, making necessary introductions and setting things up for later.

The secret to The Pitt – or, more accurately, one of several secrets, but arguably the most important – is realism. Case in point: There’s...

It’s difficult to tell whether A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is for Game of Thrones fans who are still smarting about how badly it...

Blimey, where to start? Industry doesn't do episodes like "The Commander and the Grey Lady" very often, since it's usually too firmly rooted in the real world -- albeit the grimmest corners of it -- to indulge in visions and metaphor.
