Ending an espionage thriller conclusively is almost impossible, so you have to respect the effort Black Doves goes to in order to tie Season 1...

Black Doves, Netflix’s British action-thriller series from Giri/Haji’s Joe Barton, is technically a Christmas show. The holiday has nothing to do with the plot, which...

Thailand’s Black Mirror equivalent Tomorrow and I blesses Netflix with four – albeit almost feature-length – episodes of speculative science-fiction. They’re all separate stories in...

Whenever I do my obligatory promotion of these recaps, I usually mention in a casual way that Shrinking is one of the best shows on TV. I...

“Boom” is about Eva in the same way that “Person of Interest” was about Becka. This is to say that Eva’s problems are foregrounded a...

It’s official – Get Millie Black is really good. It was obvious after the premiere but Episode 2, which valuably switches perspective to better hone...

Episode 10 of Brilliant Minds is about pain, in ways both obvious and not. “The First Responder” as a title is misleading. Sure, one of...

“Counting Coup” is partly a dumb episode of Yellowstone and partly a great one. Based on how the back half of Season 5 has proceeded...

It had to happen eventually, and it finally does here in Season 1, Episode 3 – Dune: Prophecy shows some weakness in its storytelling. The...

You can tell that The Madness would like to be described as “timely”, “biting”, or any number of other adjectives one would typically throw at...

It took a couple too many bloated episodes to get here, but the ending of Gangnam B-Side is… okay, I guess, very much like the...

Episode 7 of Before, “The Power of Belief”, revolves around another unconventional therapy technique that Eli attempts on Noah, and it’s weird that we’re supposed...

After a nearly-silent premiere focused entirely on Juliette and then a more contained episode where she didn’t feature at all, we’re starting to split our...

Aggressively predictable though the ending might be, I think Murder in a Small Town stuck the landing. I’ve been complaining all season long that this...

It hasn’t exactly been a smooth start for the second season of Bad Sisters, The two-part Season 2 premiere took a while getting out of the...

Get Millie Black had me in the first two minutes of Episode 1. It’s not just the narration, which is compelling. It’s the show’s entire...

I’m not going to say Brilliant Minds is running out of ideas, because Episode 9, “The Colorblind Painter”, still has a few. But the idea of a...
