October 17 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

Invasion Season 3 has been all over the place, which shouldn't come as much of a surprise since the first two seasons weren't exactly coherent either.

‘Gen V’ Season 2, Episode 7 Recap – Can’t Say I Didn’t Tell You So

October 15 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

Not to say I told you so, but, well, I told you so. It isn’t like Gen V Season 2 had been especially subtle about what was really going on with Cipher and Thomas Godolkin, but it’s nice that Episode 7 clarifies it – and with immediately chilling effect.

‘High Potential’ Season 2, Episode 5 Recap – Ugh, It’s Always Influencers

October 15 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

A culture is defined by the stories it tells, so I’m not sure what it has to say about our current climate that you can’t turn the TV on these days without having to endure something about influencers.

‘The Morning Show’ Season 4, Episode 5 Recap – Nicole Beharie, Take A Bow

October 15 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

I was just about ready to declare Episode 5 of The Morning Show Season 4 a bit of a dud.

‘Slow Horses’ Season 5, Episode 4 Recap – It Was Just An Accident

October 15 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

Slow Horses is a very smart show about people who're indescribably stupid or much cleverer than they look.

‘Watson’ Season 2, Episode 1 Recap – How Glad Are We That This Show Is Back?

October 14 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

The worst thing that ever happened to Watson was Brilliant Minds. Both shows are similar enough that the comparisons are unavoidable; medical procedurals with a focus on very strange, often brain-related cases of the week.

‘Everybody Loves Me When I’m Dead’ Has The Bleakest Ending Imaginable

October 14 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

Look, nobody, least of all me, thought that Everybody Loves Me When I’m Dead was going to have a happy ending. But I didn’t expect...

‘Everybody Loves Me When I’m Dead’ Review – A Dark, Violent Thai Thriller

October 14 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

There’s no such thing as a victimless crime, which seems to be the underlying point of Netflix’s demented, bleak, hyper-violent Thai thriller Everybody Loves Me...

‘Brilliant Minds’ Season 2, Episode 4 Recap – I Said We Couldn’t Trust Him

October 14 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

Brilliant Minds has always been good, and sometimes it has been very good, but in Season 2, it really might be at its peak.

‘Task’ Episode 6 Recap – Watching TV Shouldn’t Be This Painful, Should It?

October 13 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

People die. This is true in real life and even truer in television shows, since drama needs conflict, and conflict is invariably kicked off and concluded with violence.

‘Billy the Kid’ Season 3, Episode 3 Recap – It’s Finally Getting Good

October 12 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

Season 3 of Billy the Kid seems best characterised as “the one where he gets ambushed everywhere he goes”, which must be demoralising when you’re trying to organise a resistance movement.

‘Typhoon Family’ Episodes 1 & 2 Recap – ’90s Nostalgia And Fertile Dramatic Territory

October 12 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

Well, we’re in the ‘90s, of that there can be no doubt. The whole aesthetic of Typhoon Family reflects the period in which it’s set, but it’s not all in service of chintzy nostalgia.

‘Tulsa King’ Season 3, Episode 4 Recap – It’s A Family Affair

October 12 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

Jeremiah Dunmire’s goons stealing the Montague 50 seemed like a much bigger deal than it ends up being in Tulsa King Season 3, Episode 4.

‘The Rainmaker’ Episode 9 Recap – Rudy’s Day In Court Doesn’t Go To Plan

October 11 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

That excitable, itchy feeling of a penultimate episode definitely creeps into The Rainmaker here, and it’s perhaps just as well, since it hasn’t always been...

‘The Woman in Cabin 10’ Ending Explained – Going Overboard With Pointless Twists

October 10 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

The ending of The Woman in Cabin 10 has the curious distinction of being both too silly and ridiculous to be believed but also nowhere...

‘The Woman in Cabin 10’ Review – Clichéd Maritime Mystery Takes On Water

October 10 2025, by Jonathon Wilson

Given what The Woman in Cabin 10 is about and where it’s set, it’s hard not to feel like it misses some open goals. A...
