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.

At one point in Netflix’s brilliant two-part docuseries Jerry Springer: Fights, Camera, Action, The Jerry Springer Show is described as a modern-day version of the...

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.

Allow me to spare you the suspense – When the Phone Rings has a happy ending. For a long time, it was easy to suspect...

The ending of any good heist/treasure-hunting show isn’t as much of a will-they-won’t-they as it seems. Nobody ever gets the loot, really. It’s either cursed...

It’s really no surprise that Bandidos was popular, despite it not being very good. It had the format of a heist thriller and the aesthetics...

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.

It’s only fitting, I suppose, that the ending of The Rig Season 2 highlights the most explicit battle yet between Mother Nature and greedy energy...

I can’t decide if The Rig sorely needed Season 2 or would have been better off without it. Sure, it ended on a cliffhanger, but...

Creature Commandos has been at its best and worst based on the strength of its flashback sequences, and Episode 6, “Priyatel Skelet”, is no different in that regard.

I’ve already asked for more Eric Frankenstein in Creature Commandos, and Episode 5, “The Iron Pot”, grants that request. And thank goodness!

Lockerbie: A Search for Truth has such a made-for-TV sensibility that it can be difficult to believe much of what it depicts really happened. But...

Episode 6, “Zero Friends Again”, comes on the back of by far the most exciting and surprising installment.

Skeleton Crew has had its ups and downs, but Episode 5, “You Have a Lot to Learn About Pirates”, is pretty much perfect.
