‘The Night Manager’ Season 2, Episode 3 Recap – Back From the Dead
I've had some pretty rough hangovers, but I can't imagine how Pine is feeling in Episode 3 of The Night Manager Season 2.

‘Landman’ Season 2, Episode 9 Recap – It Might Be Time for A Career Change
For such a laidback show, Landman relishes chaos. There's something about the rhythm of an argument, the back and forth of problems being deliberated over and weighed up but never quite solved, that suits it.

Some TV shows get a bunch of attention and awards because of hype, or because they’re arriving at exactly the right time at the forefront of some new prevailing trend or another.

‘Spartacus: House of Ashur’ Episode 7 Recap – Revenge Is Sweet (And Messy)
Well, that felt good, didn't it? Personally, I thought Achillia would get the privilege of sorting out the Brothers Ferox, but given the events of the previous episode, Korris getting his hands on them felt right. And that's kind of the point.

‘High Potential’ Season 2, Episode 8 Recap – Back to Business
High Potential is pretty good at these two-parters, isn’t it? In case you needed a refresher, Season 2’s midseason finale left Morgan with a bit of egg on her face, since it turned out she was frolicking with the prime suspect in the case of a stolen Rembrandt and the murder of a museum curator.
