A question that occurred to me midway through When the Stars Gossip Episode 4 – what, exactly are we supposed to be latching onto here? It’s a worthwhile question.

“Ten of Swords” lacks most of the gothic atmosphere that the premiere was able to create, and instead settles into an odd rhythm of concurrent storylines, some real and some more esoteric, none of which are especially interesting.

When the Stars Gossip has been, thus far, a very strange and silly show, with a far-out premise about fertilizing eggs in space and a lot of low-stakes slapstick to pad out the episode runtime.

The premiere of The Pitt covers 07:00-08:00 and 08:00-09:00 of a single continuous shift at the fictional Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center.

The turnaround that The Agency has made in the last few episodes is pretty remarkable given how bad it was when it started.

“The Safeguard” is probably the best episode of Silo Season 2 thus far. This is perhaps not the highest of praise given the sophomore run hasn’t been perfect and has started to sag in its most recent episodes.

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....

Dick Wolf’s Prime Video procedural On Call condenses a classic format into an ideal streaming binge, delivering eight trim episodes of policework knitted together by...

It’s easy to forget – especially in Episode 7, which contains two pretty cold-blooded executions and the threat of several others – that Star Wars: Skeleton Crew is a kids’ show.

“Obsessed” is a fitting title for the midseason premiere of High Potential. Morgan is obsessed, for instance, with solving crimes, spouting off random facts about everything.

Brilliant Minds kept its audience on tenterhooks for weeks after collapsing a building on one of its key cast members and heading off for a midseason hiatus.

Stick with me here as this is a slightly weird thing to say on just Episode 2, but When the Stars Gossip is almost like the anti-K-Drama.

Despite being popular enough to secure Season 2, little adjustment seems to have been made between seasons to iron out some of the issues.

Oh, look, another steady, contemplative episode of Landman. Is that what we need in Episode 9, one removed from the finale, when the previous outing ended with a cartel SUV being hit by a U.S. military drone?

It’s fair to say that sci-fi isn’t exactly a go-to genre for K-Drama, and sci-fi-comedy even less so, which makes When the Stars Gossip an especially curious choice for a Netflix series.

When the Phone Rings is clearly the kind of show that delights in keeping its audience guessing (and close to a health event).

It’s about time that Martian’s secrets and lies caught up to him, and Episode 7 of The Agency feels like the point of no return for him.

Episode 8, “The Book of Quinn”, does manage to progress the overarching story with surprisingly even-handed consideration for everyone, especially the many residents of Silo 18.
