Things are not going well for Mike McLusky. To be fair, things are never going well for Mike, but it seems the main objective of Mayor of Kingstown Season 4 is to have things go as badly for him as humanly possible.

I knew things weren’t going to work out for Cooper. Landman isn’t the kind of show that would allow an idealistic young man to consistently strike gold, make a fortune, and live happily ever after.

If the penultimate episode of Tulsa King Season 3 didn’t quite feel like a penultimate episode, that’s counterbalanced somewhat by the fact that the ending really does...

Since DMV started, I’ve complained pretty consistently about the focus on Colette and the one-note mode the character generally operates in.

It’s pretty uncontroversial to describe John Watson as a bit of a do-gooder.

Landman is the best show in the world at being compelling without anything really happening in it. It managed to get through its entire first...

“Dead Weight” is the penultimate episode of Tulsa King Season 3, but it doesn’t feel like it.

There has been quite a lot of death in Mayor of Kingstown Season 4 thus far.

People are sleeping on Sheriff Country. I’m not suggesting it’s secretly a prestige drama or anything, but as far as procedurals go, it’s really a very fine version of that oh-so-familiar format, and I think you can see it quite clearly in Episode 5, “Expecting Trouble”.

You see how much difference a bit of disagreement makes? For all its strengths as a procedural, this is the one area where Boston Blue...

If nothing else, at least DMV seems to be listening to me. I've been crying out for the sitcom to give Colette something -- anything -- different to do, and in Episode 5, "Stick Shift", it just about manages it.

I’ll be the first person to admit that Watson doesn’t need Sherlock Holmes. It works better without him, actually.

And just like that, Montague Distilleries is once again open for business, thanks to Dwight’s slick power play to secure the loyalty of Attorney General...

Mayor of Kingstown isn’t pulling any punches in Season 4. Several Russians have been beheaded by a train, and Carney’s cold execution in front of his...

I know I keep going on about it, but you’ll have to forgive me, since it’s really difficult not to compare Sheriff Country to Boston...

It’s a good job Boston Blue is a decent procedural, because if it weren’t for the cases of the week, it’d be the dullest, most...

In Episode 4 of DMV, things are half-improved. The secret is keeping Colette away from Noa for a while, since that dynamic was already becoming tired.

In a weird way, it’s almost impressive that we’re on Season 2 of Watson and yet nobody involved in its creation has quite figured out who any of its core characters are.
