I mentioned this briefly when I wrote about the premiere, but any issues of premise, character development, or originality aside, The Fall and Rise of...

DMV has been off the air for a long while, and Episode 10 feels less like a triumphant return than a reminder that this show...

It’s fair to say that Memory of a Killer hasn’t been in a rush to get anywhere, but that changes in Episode 5. “Betrayal” shouldn’t...

Some shows are designed to push boundaries, to reinvent longstanding ideas about genre and form. The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins isn’t one of them.

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.

Even though the titular product very much twists through the entire DNA of The Beauty, I’m pretty sure we didn’t need any more explanation about...

Things are really starting to heat up in Memory of a Killer now. If Episode 3 was all about teasing out Angelo’s worsening Alzheimer’s issues, making vague hints about who the Ferryman might be and who might be double-crossing whom, Episode 4, “Unhappy Ending”, is about fleshing those lingering suspicions out into full-blown theories.

I do like Memory of a Killer, and I think it has a fundamentally great premise, but you can feel it wearing a little bit in Episode 3, “Samurai”. This is partly the fault of Angelo himself, who is rather in denial about his worsening memory issues and keeps neglecting them, making his already complicated situation even worse.

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.

I think it’s fair to say that Spartacus: House of Ashur has earned a finale like Episode 10, “Hail Caesar”. Things haven’t been going especially well for...

Of course it’s the billionaires! If you were going to sell an experimental trial drug that radically rewrote your DNA for an unfeasibly large amount of money, it’d make complete sense to pitch it directly to people with more money than sense, those to whom small matters like FDA approval – you know, the rules that the plebs are bound by – are small concerns.

You can always tell when Brilliant Minds is due to go on hiatus, since that’s when it wheels out the big guns. Season 2 hasn’t had very...

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...
