By the high standards already set by Silo Season 2, “Descent” is comparatively slow-paced. But don’t mistake Episode 5 for filler, since it’s anything but....

Before is, in a word, stupid. This won’t come as news to anyone at this point, but it’s especially ironic since it thinks it’s so...

I know what you’re thinking – everyone dies, right? Well, no, as it happens. The ending of La Palma subverts expectations in that sense, with...

In most shows, Rebecca Ferguson doing an extended high-pressure underwater sequence like it’s Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation all over again would be the standout...

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...
