One of the problems with When the Stars Gossip – and it’s admittedly a "me" problem – is that I only care what’s going on in one narrow section of it.

When the Stars Gossip needs a turning point, I think. If Episode 5 proves anything, it’s that the status quo isn’t quite enough, despite the novelty of the setting.

You have to wonder how much money Cameron Diaz was offered for Back in Action. It was evidently enough to coax her out of retirement,...

XO, Kitty Season 2 was a whirlwind of emotions and drama! Funnily enough, Kitty explicitly tells us at the start of the season that she...

Season 2 of Castlevania: Nocturne provides a surprisingly tender ending that in many ways avoids a lot of the more potentially pesky narrative decisions. Everyone...

We’re at a point now where anything that debuts on Netflix with Castlevania in the title is a guaranteed good time, which if you’d told...

If you’ve seen Season 1, I’m sure you know the base story of Jenny Hans’ Netflix Series, XO Kitty. If you haven’t, however, here’s a...

From a stage festooned with live plants for no real reason that I can discern, Ari Shaffir delivers his second Netflix special (fifth overall), America’s...

Ad Vitam isn’t a very good movie, and its ending helps to illuminate precisely why that is. After a stellar start and then an incredibly...

Ad Vitam plays out like someone challenged director Rodolphe Lauga to make a very simple film as needlessly, off-puttingly convoluted as possible. It starts out...

Subteran avoids the easy, happy ending, which holistically is one of the bolder things about it. Netflix’s first Romanian original series is mostly content to...

Subteran is, to my knowledge, the first Romanian Netflix original series, and you know what? It’s a pretty good debut effort. It’s not perfect, obviously;...

Netflix’s brutal Western American Primeval spins a complex web around the Mountain Meadows Massacre, a real event that occurred in the Utah Territory in 1857....

Pretty much everyone dies in American Primeval, which is to be expected. Nobody thought a happy ending was coming to any of these characters, even...

American Primeval is awful, but largely in a way that’s terrifically entertaining. It’s about a lot of horrible people doing a great many heinous things,...

It takes a fair amount of time and a lot of concentration to get to the climax of Hound’s Hill, so most viewers will enter...
