Episode 12, “Partners”, proves that the show is much more interesting when it’s using that as a starting point for meaningful character development.
‘Prime Target’ Episode 4 Recap – This Show About Clever People Thinks You’re Stupid
With a remarkable lack of self-awareness, Apple TV+’s impressively boring thriller Prime Target bases Episode 4, “Kaplar”, around a twist so laughably obvious that when it was eventually deployed as a last-minute cliffhanger, I laughed out loud.

“It’s the not knowing.” This is a line repeated a few times in Episode 4 of Paradise. In context, it’s about the difficulties of trying...
‘Bogota: City of the Lost’ Review – What if ‘Scarface’ Was Korean and Rubbish?
If you wanted a Korean take on Narcos you could always stream Narco-Saints on Netflix, which isn’t very good but would probably do the job...
‘When the Stars Gossip’ Episode 10 Recap – The Return to Earth Has Not Improved the Drama
As expected, Episode 10 of When the Stars Gossip brings the action back down to earth but makes some extremely questionable decisions when we get there.
‘Mayfair Witches’ Season 2, Episode 5 Recap – A Decent Concept Improves Things a Little
I’ve been a vocal critic of Mayfair Witches Season 2 and, to be fair, I still think it’s a bit rubbish. But Episode 5, “The Thrall”, was okay!
‘When the Stars Gossip’ Episode 9 Recap – A Daring Rescue Brings the Show’s Drama Back Down to Earth
As of Episode 9, When the Stars Gossip has pretty much lost me. It’s a shame, really, since there have been so many glimmers of potential that the fact the K-Drama doesn’t seem to be cohering into anything feels like a waste.
‘Lucca’s World’: From Autobiographical Book to Emotional Netflix Film
Lucca’s World is an emotional film that certainly impacted me, but there’s a real story behind it. It’s based on Bárbara Anderson’s autobiographical book, “The...

‘Unmasked’ Episodes 5 & 6 Recap – A Late Twist Livens Things Up a Bit
I haven’t exactly been coy about not knowing quite what to make of Unmasked, and I was more undecided than ever throughout most of Episodes 5 and 6 until a late twist at the end of the latter gave the Disney+ K-Drama a jolt of energy.

“W.S.T.W.T.P” very much has the feel of a penultimate episode, which is a nebulous thing but has a distinct flavor.
‘The Recruit’ Season 2, Episode 4 Recap – Owen and Jang Kyun Try to Negotiate with the Yakuza
I have no idea if Owen Hendricks is a good lawyer because in two seasons of The Recruit, he hasn’t practiced any law. I don’t even think he has slept for more than five minutes, but he’s so utterly indispensable to the CIA that it’s amazing how often they keep trying to kill and/or discredit him.
