TV Recaps

Trigger has a fascinating and provocative dystopian premise, which imagines Korea awash with free, easily accessible firearms. The only man fighting against the tide is Lee...

I suppose there's no invitation more compelling for a serial killer than one to a dinner party full of other serial killers.

Seriously, how is this happening? Smoke is a truly confounding show. It started out okay, trundled along inoffensively enough, and then took a sudden, severe turn for the worse.

Blimey, James Seadown is awful, isn't he? This won't be news to long-time viewers of The Buccaneers, but now we're over halfway through Season 2, he has indisputably emerged as the real villain of the piece.

Murder! Affairs! Megachurches! The Hunting Wives has an awful lot going on, and a lot of it is deliberately ridiculous and sensational. Across eight episodes, it weaves...

I get that prison breaks are a pretty complex undertaking, but The Institute needs to speed things up.

The premiere wasn't a fluke. Episode 3 of Dexter: Resurrection, aptly titled "Backseat Driver", feels like a return to the franchise of old with a tight focus on Dexter himself as he works to claim another victim.

I’m not going to lie to you, I had written Smoke off. The previous episode was so deeply awful and misguided that it seemed incomprehensible the show...

“Terces” feels quite light for a penultimate episode, clearly saving up most of its big revelations and developments for the finale.

As it turns out, Vasquez’s near-death experience in the previous episode is the most major breakthrough of the case thus far.

This, I think, is more like it. With the identity of the mysterious Jane Doe having been discovered, several new lines of inquiry open up in Episode 3.

By the end of Untamed Episode 2, Vasquez has figured out who the mysterious Jane Doe is, which is good news.

The first thing you’ll notice about Untamed is that it doesn’t look great.

I'm not one for tortured golf metaphors, but Stick really finds its swing in Episode 9.

Welcome to the Gilded Age, where a lusty attraction can morph into a passionate declaration of love in just a couple of hours.

I have good news and bad news. The bad news is that in Episode 2, “Shot for Dots”, The Institute still has a lot of the same problems it showcased in the premiere.

I get the sense we’ll have to cut The Institute a bit of slack. There’s a compelling core story here, and Episode 1 hints at it repeatedly.

Depending on who you ask, contemporary entertainment’s sheer unwillingness to let go of a recognisable IP may or may not be killing the film, TV, and video game industries all at the same time.
