TV Recaps

If it wasn’t obvious out of the gate that Episode 1 of The Boroughs is all about introductions, it’ll become clear pretty quickly. The episode...

You might be fooled into thinking that there isn’t a great deal going on in Episode 9 of The Testaments, but don’t be so hasty. While...

If I’m being completely honest, Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed has been so Paula-focused thus far that I never stopped to consider Trevor’s perspective. Luckily, Episode 2, “YABA”,...

The first switcheroo of Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed comes early, and it’s a good indication of the kind of show we’re getting into. These days, Apple TV has...

It’s a shame more people aren’t talking about Widow’s Bay, since it’s shaping up to be one of Apple TV’s finest original offerings. At the very...

It’s all going a bit wrong, isn’t it? Personally, professionally, politically, whatever you like, Criminal Record Season 2 is turning into a real house of cards. This...

In lieu of a proper overarching plot, especially with the nearest thing to a Big Bad having already been dispatched, and most of the lingering personal conflicts having already been ironed out, it’s important for Marshals to come up with some other ideas to build tension for its upcoming finale.

Here I was, claiming that Euphoria doesn’t have a great deal going on in Season 3 beyond the obvious viral sensationalism of Sydney Sweeney’s kaiju boobs. With very credible arguments floating around that this show has exceeded the purpose of its existence, Episode 6 is reassuring in its way, since it’s the first chapter that feels less designed to court controversy and more intended to offer a sliver of hope to these woebegone fools.

So, Duncan and JoAnne's partnership didn't even manage to last a single episode. I suppose that's The Audacity in a nutshell, really. Everyone is too self-interested for a proper relationship to ever germinate in the Palo Alto soil; it's just a case of playing nice long enough for the right opportunity to present itself. I'm not even sure who legally owns which company at this stage, which is probably part of the point.

Any minor complaints about the pacing of From Season 4 must surely be put to bed by Episode 5, “What a Long Strange Trip It’s Been”, which is packed to the gills with nastiness, mystery, and mushrooms.

Things are moving pretty quickly in My Royal Nemesis, and I don’t think that’s a bad thing. Se-gye and Dan-sim have gone from vague acquaintances...

One thing I’ve always wondered about The Audacity is how Duncan managed to achieve any success at all. And for what it’s worth, I think...

I know I compare Boston Blue and Sheriff Country a lot, perhaps even a little unfairly, but their respective trajectories have been interesting to follow....

You’d think that criminals would have learned by now that shooting cops is probably a bad idea. In a show like Boston Blue, which is...

I’ve been a little mixed on My Royal Nemesis thus far, but Episode 3 is easily my favourite instalment yet. The first two episodes had...

We’re not very far into Season 3 of The Terror, and we don’t know Pepper especially well. He’s trapped in less-than-ideal circumstances, and he’s under...

The first episode of Dutton Ranch was in such a hurry to get Beth and Rip to Texas that it didn’t bother to explain how they got...

We’ve had no shortage of entries in the so-called Duttonverse lately. After the success of 1883 and 1923, we had to wait a while for anything new,...
