From very much likes the idea of single statements and/or sentiments that sum up the entire episode – or, for that matter, the show overall....

With the Blood Moon killer finally apprehended, it’s business as usual in Sheriff Country. And that business is weed, obviously. Episode 16, “Twenty Four Candles”,...

The big problem with Boston Blue, which I’ve been moaning about every week and which several regular commenters have also rightly mentioned, is that it...

I’m firmly of the opinion that there has never been a puppet that wasn’t horrific, and I confess to being a tiny bit sceptical of...

The essential tension of Your Friends & Neighbors has always revolved around Coop potentially being caught moonlighting as a local thief. But Season 2 has...

Despite Monarch: Legacy of Monsters really coasting on the idea of giant Titan fights, Season 2 has pretty effectively made the case that the best use of...

You can tell that Daredevil: Born Again is reaching a fever pitch in Season 2, since “Requiem” feels in many ways like an effort to...

Prom is a perennial fixture of teenage life and, by extension, teenage media. And while I’m not sure The Testaments necessarily qualifies as younger-skewing entertainment, it is about high-schoolers,...

Margo’s Got Money Troubles, fittingly for a show about an aspiring writer, has a great facility for catchy insults and screen names. I’ve never heard...

Based on the title alone, it isn’t difficult to guess what Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord is about. But one of the more surprising revelations of the Disney+ series has been that Maul, as great as Sam Witwer’s take on the character might be, is probably the least interesting thing about it.

The key question that will likely define the short-term future of Euphoria is whether Sam Levinson is attempting to satirise the facile horniness of the American Dream, or if he truly believes that the most anyone can aspire to these days is sucking on a pacifier while dressed as an adult baby.
