There was plenty going on in the premiere of Silo Season 3, including Juliette’s amnesia and convenient mayoralty, a pre-apocalypse plot introducing a potentially world-ending threat, and...

With the show having really come into its own towards the end of Season 1, the finale of Star City is a suddenly enticing proposition for fans...

Okay, Cape Fear has completely lost the plot at this point. I have been defending the show for weeks against accusations of it being high-camp nonsense, but...

The answers are in the Down Deep. It might not be especially explicit, but it has always been implied, and with the Season 3 premiere,...

In Season 3, Silo has flipped the script on the power structures at work within Silo 18. It has been three months since the Season...

Just one episode into Silo Season 3, and the show has already radically reinvented itself. In the Silo itself, Juliette is now mayor, though thanks...

While John Sugar being an alien is the primary differentiating twist of his namesake Apple TV show, it does have some downsides. One of the...

After (presumably) killing off three major characters in highly dramatic circumstances, it was obvious that Episode 7 of Star City was going to have some explaining to...

Viewers have been making fun of Apple TV’s Cape Fear for most of Season 1 thus far, and I’ve been steadfastly defending it. I could acknowledge that...

I know what you’re going to say — there’s nothing more contrived than an amnesia plot. However true this might be, though, and as weird...

Lawyers are like buses, apparently -- you wait ages for one to turn up, and then two come along at once. This is the predicament that Paula finds herself in here in Episode 8 of Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, which is just the latest in a long string of predicaments that include being arrested for a double-murder and locked up on Rikers Island.

Whenever I find myself on the wrong side of a consensus, I can usually see it coming. I’ve been writing about film and TV professionally...

John Sugar is an immigrant, a literal alien, which is probably worth keeping in the back of your mind when watching Season 2 of Sugar. Not that the show is going to let you forget it, at least not based on Episode 2, “Downer Town”, which is very much backdropped by the idea of people making their way in strange places that are often hostile to them, and feeling, privately, that they’re completely on their own in doing so.

In many ways, it feels like “Awl in a Sack” is the episode that Star City has been building up to throughout Season 1. It’s...

The mystery about Nevaeh potentially being Max Cady’s daughter lasted until the opening scene of Cape Fear Episode 5, where it’s confirmed outright. You’d think...

I don’t kill people very often — not anymore, anyway — but I think I’d do a better job of it than Paula. Then again,...

Some men are willing to go to Venus to get away from their angry wives, and that’s exactly the case in Star City. I’m being...

Apple TV’s adaptation of Cape Fear got off to a great start. People were high on it, including me, lauding Javier Bardem’s stellar villain turn and the...
