At the risk of sounding like a broken record, it's worth reiterating that Poppa's House is a significantly better show when it's focusing on Poppa -- especially his relationship with Ivy.
‘Watson’ Episode 4 Recap – The Good News Is I Actually Liked This One
There might come a time in the not-too-distant future when I’m able to look back and say Watson got good around Episode 4. It’s weird, though, because “Patient Question Mark” isn’t even a hugely notable improvement over the first few episodes.
‘1923’ Season 2, Episode 2 Recap – Helen Mirren’s Blight on Montana’s Wildlife Continues
I know it say it all the time, but Taylor Sheridan’s fascination with animal-based peril is getting hilarious. Not that there’s a great deal of humour to be found in an episode titled “The Rapist is Winter”, to be fair.
‘Poppa’s House’ Episode 12 Recap – Same Structure, Same Tedium, Same Jokes

‘Watson’ Episode 3 Recap – Watson Has a Headache and So Do We
Watson isn’t doing itself any favors by titling Episode 3 “Wait for the Punchline”, since it gives smug critics like me too many openings to be all like, “Still waiting!”.
‘1923’ Season 2, Episode 1 Recap – Guys, Taylor Sheridan Is Doing Animal Metaphors Again
It has been quite a while since the first season of 1923 ended on a relatively sour note.

‘Watson’ Episode 2 Recap – Is This a Detective Show Or A Medical Drama?
Episode 2 of Watson is about a guy who thinks he’s someone else, which is pretty apt since this is a show that can’t seem to decide what it is.
‘Poppa’s House’ Episode 11 Recap – A Brilliant Case Study Of Why This Show Sucks
If you asked me to design an episode of Poppa's House that perfectly exemplified all of the show's myriad issues, it'd look a lot like Episode 11, "Dirty Laundry".
‘Poppa’s House’ Episode 10 Recap – That Was Almost a Decent Episode
Episode 10 of Poppa’s House is so close to being a decent episode that the fact it remains pretty rubbish is genuinely frustrating.
‘Watson’ Episode 1 Recap – Turns Out Watson Isn’t Very Interesting Without Sherlock
CBS is hoping the Sherlock well hasn’t run dry after Elementary, but crucially that show had Holmes in it. The premiere of Watson opens with his apparent demise after a tumble down a waterfall in pursuit of James Moriarty (who else?).
‘Poppa’s House’ Episode 9 Recap – Junior Is One of the Worst Characters in Anything, Ever
Returning in Episode 9 after a hiatus of several weeks, Poppa’s House abides by the principle that a dog makes everything better.

The turnaround that The Agency has made in the last few episodes is pretty remarkable given how bad it was when it started.
‘Landman’ Lays The Foundations For Its Finale In A Well-Written But Low-Key Episode 9
Oh, look, another steady, contemplative episode of Landman. Is that what we need in Episode 9, one removed from the finale, when the previous outing ended with a cartel SUV being hit by a U.S. military drone?
Martian Can Barely Stay Ahead Of His Secrets In ‘The Agency’ Season 1, Episode 7
