High Potential is pretty good at these two-parters, isn’t it? In case you needed a refresher, Season 2’s midseason finale left Morgan with a bit of egg on her face, since it turned out she was frolicking with the prime suspect in the case of a stolen Rembrandt and the murder of a museum curator.

New Vegas was the clear selling point of Fallout Season 2, so it’s nice that in Episode 4, “The Demon in the Snow”, Lucy and the Ghoul finally arrive there.

As far as I know, ADD isn’t contagious, but Marcello Hernandez’s debut Netflix special, American Boy, will make you wonder. Filmed in Miami and bristling...

In case you didn't know there was a finale coming up, Episode 9 of Palm Royale Season 2 makes it pretty clear.

Most shows benefit from a change of scenery, but Palm Royale benefits pretty considerably in “Maxine Hits the Slopes”.

In my recap of that powerful Eric Dane episode, I said that sometimes Brilliant Minds just decides to drop an hour of emotional torture out of nowhere.

If you didn’t know that Best Medicine was a remake of the cosy British hit Doc Martin, you’ll figure it out pretty soon into Episode 1, which is basically a carbon copy of the original show’s pilot.

I hate to say I told you so, but I did. To be fair, Brilliant Minds Season 2 hasn’t exactly been secretive about Charlie Porter’s ill intentions, and the Halloween special dropped a pretty big clue about his real motivations.

Oh, boy. Every now and again, Brilliant Minds delivers an episode like “The Fire Fighter”, seemingly just for its own sick pleasure.

A lot of Brilliant Minds Season 2 has been about the future. The teases of Wolf’s eventual incarceration in Hudson Oaks, no doubt thanks to...

Brilliant Minds is typically quite elegantly plotted, and has been throughout most of Season 2. But I think it’s fair to say that in Episode...

There are only two episodes of Pro Bono left, which seems to have come out of nowhere. It’s part of the procedural format, I guess. The case-of-the-week structure keeps you distracted while the overarching story sneaks up on you. You can feel that quite strongly in Episodes 9 & 10.

One of the most interesting questions about the law in general is who it is supposed to serve. Is it a tool of equality, to be applied equally to all? Does it have a responsibility to protect the most downtrodden and easily exploitable?

There is no more damning indictment of the state of contemporary media than The Night Manager being back on our screens a decade after contentedly...

The Night Manager has never been a particularly vibes-heavy show, unless, of course, the vibes you’re looking for are rather grounded and intense ones. But...

Mental health seems to be a growing concern in the espionage business. The Agency was almost entirely about the psychological toll of being a spy,...

Nothing about Landman should work. I’ve said this already, in my coverage of the first outing and indeed Season 2, but it’s worth reiterating since this is such a...

The good news is that Red Eye Season 2, despite being a step down from the first outing overall, has a better, slightly less ridiculous...
