Hey, remember the Fear Street trilogy? What a surprising success that was for Netflix. At least partially a consequence of an unprecedented global health crisis...

There’s a moment in Guy Ritchie’s Fountain of Youth when treasure hunter Luke Purdue (John Krasinski, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan) steals a Rembrandt painting from...

I’ve identified a key issue in Murderbot. To be fair, I mentioned it in my recap of the two-part premiere, and nothing has changed; it’s just twice as noticeable because Episode 3 is obviously half as long.

In Greek mythology, sirens were creatures who lured sailors to their deaths with beautiful singing and a fetching feminine top half, hiding some sort of...

"How Did We Become These People?" is, like the previous episode of Your Friends & Neighbors, something of a slow chapter.

You know when a show is released in two parts – as is the case with Tyler Perry’s Miss Governor – that the “ending” is really...

Everything Tyler Perry does is funny, usually for entirely the wrong reasons. On that level, at least, Miss Governor feels like a step in the right...

Based on everything we’ve seen from The Studio thus far, it was hard to imagine that even its ending would give Matt a break. And all throughout...

Tastefully Yours is still in that early team-building stage, as evidenced by Episode 4, which uses the tried and tested technique of a bit of competition to solidify the core dynamics.

Dark humour is a safety mechanism, a release valve for when the pressure of real life gets too much to handle. If we can laugh...

Well, we’d better be careful with this one, folks. You can say a lot about Brett Favre, but at least you can’t accuse him of...

As much as I’ll always relish the opportunity for food puns, I should start taking Tastefully Yours a bit more seriously since, as of Episode 3, it’s really starting to cohere.

There’s probably a case to be made that nine episodes into a 12-episode season is too late for a show to get good. But this is also likely underselling Heavenly Ever After, which has always been “good”, so to speak, and has mostly just failed to progress beyond that.

I’m one of those insufferable fans of The Last of Us Part II who thinks it’s a work of towering genius, and I’ve done nothing throughout these recaps but moan about all the ways in which Season 2 of the HBO adaptation has made changes to it.

Good news, those few remaining viewers who consume The Walking Dead: Dead City out of choice instead of professional obligation -- Episode 3 isn't quite as stupid as the previous installment was.

Well, MobLand is getting rather complicated now, isn’t it? I thought that last week’s international introductions were enough to be going on with, but Episode 8 has other ideas.

Having thought about it a bit, I’m still not sure whether Football Parents has a happy ending or not. I suppose it depends on who...

I am, for my sins, a football parent, so there’s a lot I find familiar about the Dutch Netflix comedy Football Parents. The general inability...
