Cross Season 2 has been pretty tight-lipped when it comes to providing answers about what’s really going on. This is to be expected, of course,...

Cross Season 2 seems to know where it’s going, and is in a hurry to get there. This is no bad thing, in my view,...

The first season of Cross was pretty dark, granted, but it wasn’t “burning alive and cutting the fingers off of rich child predators” dark, so...

This is pretty reductive to say, and I’ll obviously expand on it, but the truth about Cross Season 2 is essentially this – if you...

Things are really starting to heat up in Memory of a Killer now. If Episode 3 was all about teasing out Angelo’s worsening Alzheimer’s issues, making vague hints about who the Ferryman might be and who might be double-crossing whom, Episode 4, “Unhappy Ending”, is about fleshing those lingering suspicions out into full-blown theories.

I do like Memory of a Killer, and I think it has a fundamentally great premise, but you can feel it wearing a little bit in Episode 3, “Samurai”. This is partly the fault of Angelo himself, who is rather in denial about his worsening memory issues and keeps neglecting them, making his already complicated situation even worse.

In its limited screentime thus far, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms has done a pretty remarkable job of communicating a much more hopeful tone than you’d necessarily expect from a show set in the same brutal universe as Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon.

I think it’s fair to say that Spartacus: House of Ashur has earned a finale like Episode 10, “Hail Caesar”. Things haven’t been going especially well for...

And there it is, ladies and gentlemen. The big reveal of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms finally arrives in Episode 3, "The Squire", and it's about time, too, since virtually everyone watching the show will have figured it out already.

When I first heard tell of a straight-to-streaming action movie starring Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista, I feared the worst. And it’s on Prime Video,...

I think it's fair to say that you don't come to Spartacus: House of Ashur looking for depth of character. It's a show about copious amounts of blood and guts, full-frontal nudity -- I see you, Pompey -- and ridiculous quasi-Shakespearean dialogue.

The Hunting Party has been a little male-dominant in Season 2, so Episode 4 already wins some novelty points by revolving around a female spree killer. Thankfully, "Amanda Weiss" has a bit more going for it than that.

Memory of a Killer has one of those premises that just resonates, which is probably why it has been adapted and remade so many times.

You might have a memory of Memory of a Killer, a Belgian novel that became a Belgian movie and was remade with Liam Neeson in 2022 under the simpler title Memory. If you don’t, Episode 1 will give you a familiar feeling either way.

If we're being honest, there isn't a great deal going on in Episode 2 of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. It's one of those classic, early-season "getting to know you" outings, making necessary introductions and setting things up for later.

It’s always daddy issues, isn’t it? Since The Hunting Party deals with the psychology of killers, it’s kind of unavoidable that parental problems will frequently come to the fore, but the titular Zack Lang, who’s the focus of Season 2, Episode 3, almost feels like he has been assembled from a nutcase bingo card.

It’s difficult to tell whether A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is for Game of Thrones fans who are still smarting about how badly it...

Let's be totally clear here -- despite being set in the same brutal universe, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms really is nothing like Game of Thrones. And that's a good thing!

Netflix has several bad ideas, but giving Joe Carnahan (Boss Level) $100,000,000 is a pretty good one. That was reportedly the budget of his new...

I’ve always said that The Hunting Party does a good job of coming up with eerie concepts for its killers, and I’m glad to see this hasn’t diminished in Season 2.
