While we’re technically still stuck in Ba Sing Se, which was already beginning to feel a bit limiting, Episode 5 of Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2...

Ba Sing Se is good and bad for Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2. Having all of the cast in the same place, in a location that...

Since Avatar: The Last Airbender is adapting such a long-running anime, condensing so many arcs into single digestible episodes, it has a tendency to feel anthological in...

Some people don’t have a great deal of luck, and I’m starting to think that Prince Zuko is one of them. Sure, you can make...

Since the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender is fairly complex and dense at the best of times, it’s probably only right that Season 2 starts with...

I don’t kill people very often — not anymore, anyway — but I think I’d do a better job of it than Paula. Then again,...

Until now, Season 1 of Dutton Ranch has lacked a compelling villain. Initially, it seemed like Beulah Jackson might be it, but her recent team-up with Beth...

It’s very hard to articulate precisely what it is about Cape Fear that’s so unsettling. There isn’t a great deal that actually happens in Episode 4, and...

Season 2 of Sugar is already a much different proposition from the first outing. Apple TV’s startlingly well-shot neo-noir initially masqueraded as a pretty straight-up crime thriller,...

Oh, man, I liked him too! I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, since I Will Find You has made Hayden a bit too reasonable and helpful, but even so,...

Just when it seemed like I Will Find You was becoming a bit too uninteresting and obvious, Episode 6 throws in a few curveballs. Sure, the idea...

I think we’re beginning to get a pretty clear picture of what’s going on in I Will Find You now. Ever since Season 1 slowed down...
