The previous episode of Happy Face was very good because it pulled the rug at the very end and allowed corruption another victory. Episode 6 is even better because it makes that victory short-lived.

And here we all were thinking that the serial killer was the villain of Happy Face. No such luck.

If you squint a little bit, it’s kind of beautiful. Daredevil: Born Again is only vaguely what one would consider a comic book show, the...

Netflix’s Scandi noir The Glass Dome is pretty good, taking the quintessential genre framework and delivering a very solid version of it that doesn’t try...

Netflix’s Scandi noir The Glass Dome pulls double duty as both a taut whodunnit and a psychological drama, exploring the longstanding effects of intergenerational trauma...

Look, you know how these things work. In an episode or so, The Glass Dome sketches one of the more familiar outlines of a quintessential...

MobLand clearly isn’t interested in hanging about, is it? If you thought the brewing gang war between the Harrigans and the Stevensons was something that might take, I dunno, half a season or so to get going, Episode 3 disabuses you of that notion by opening with Kevin’s house blowing up.

I can say this for Season 7 of Black Mirror, if nothing else – it’s better than the last one. But that’s a low bar...

You have to wonder if the reason Black Mirror isn’t very good anymore is that the horrifying digital future it once imagined is now our...

A lot happens in Episode 8 of Daredevil: Born Again; people die, there's a prison break, a swanky ball, and the truth, finally, about what happened to Foggy Nelson is revealed.

How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast) already had a pretty decent ending in Season 3, which puts the Season 4 finale in a difficult position,...

Let me start by saying that How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast) didn’t need to return for Season 4. The ending of Season 3 was pretty conclusive...

Now that’s how you do a finale. The Hunting Party caps off a run of great form with a brilliant ending that weaves its case of the...

Episode 2 of MobLand is titled “Jigsaw Puzzle”, which is fitting for two reasons.

I think we’re all in agreement that Happy Face works best as a personal story instead of a mystery, especially one with some sledgehammer-subtle social commentary for good measure.

After a banger double-bill, it’s easy to consider Episode 7 of Daredevil: Born Again a bit of a step down.

It’s genuinely impressive how The Hunting Party keeps adapting its formula each week. Episode 9 continues a run of great form by finding another novel take on the procedural format while also making ground in the macro plot and Shane’s personal backstory.

The first two episodes of Happy Face were okay, but suffered from a bit of an identity crisis, and Episode 3, “Was It Worth It?”, doesn’t make the existing problems any better.

And here I was wondering if Reacher could tie off every loose end in Season 3 in just a single episode. I needn’t have worried. Episode 8,...
