My biggest question about Boston Blue is when things are going to start going wrong.

I wasn’t a huge fan of Kathryn Bigelow’s A House of Dynamite, a too-glossy triptych boasting too many stars and a recursive storytelling gimmick that...

Kathryn Bigelow’s A House of Dynamite is built on a great idea, rippling with urgency and tension. Out of nowhere, an ICBM is launched at...

The Last Frontier isn't a procedural, but it feels like one in Episode 4, which isn't intended as a criticism.

I think it’s over? You can never quite tell with Invasion, but “The End of the Line” definitely feels like an ending. And thank goodness for that, since...

Every week, I make a joke about how many murders can happen in a small town before they stop being noteworthy, so I feel fairly vindicated by “Strangers Among Us.”

I’m not sure I’d consider the climax of Gen V Season 2 to be a “good” ending in the traditional sense of the term. Sure,...

Just in case you needed a reminder that we were firmly in Spooky Season, High Potential Season 2 delivers its obligatory Halloween episode.

We're just past the halfway point of The Morning Show Season 4, and we've already had two major departures from UBN.

"Circus" is a very good episode of Slow Horses, in all the ways we've come to expect. It's laugh-out-loud funny in places, effectively tense in others, and moves along at a real clip.

It occurred to me during "Once Upon A Time In America" that Brilliant Minds has spent so much time building mystery in Season 2 that it has kind of skimped on the emotion a little.

Task ended with Robbie’s death, in many ways. I don’t mean literally, obviously, because Episode 7 devotes another epilogue-style hour to tying up loose ends...

Tae-poong has a lot of admirable qualities in Typhoon Family, but the guy’s pretty unlucky.

It was only a matter of time. Even Billy the Kid can’t run forever, and if nothing else, Season 3 has been a consistent reminder of that.

Typhoon Family is the quintessential example of a show with very familiar constituent parts – a real-life period of turbulent history, a wayward son forced to grow up at pace, a burgeoning romance, and so on – that feels fresh and distinct through its basic underlying quality.

Is it just me, or is Dwight’s double-agent routine in Tulsa King Season 3 feeling a little distracting?

So, Daryl and Carol’s tour of Spain is going to continue, since the ending of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3 throws a pretty...

Halfway between the continuation of Blue Bloods and the introduction of a completely new show, the premiere of Boston Blue has that classic “same but different” quality you probably expect from a spin-off to a beloved procedural.

The hook of Sheriff Country is that it’s about a sheriff for whom the law is the least of her problems.

There are few things more satisfying than a legal drama that lets the good guys win. In the case of The Rainmaker, I don’t use...
