Apple TV+ tends to debut the first two episodes of their new shows at once, which is good news for Prime Target, since Episode 2, “Syracuse”, is where it gets going.

If Good Will Hunting had a child with Enemy of the State, it might look a bit like Apple TV+’s Prime Target. But maybe that’s overselling things.

Apple TV+’s Prime Target is a show about maths, and a bit of history, and a lot of international espionage and conspiracism, but on a...

Nobody likes a dinner party, and when you really boil it down, that’s all Episode 3 of Mayfair Witches Season 2 really is.

The word of the day is “death”. This is largely true of any episode of any medical drama, but it’s particularly true of Episode 3 of The Pitt, which opens and closes with death.

The most obvious disconnect between the audience and the characters in Severance’s Season 2 premiere is that for them it has only been few a seconds since we left, and for us it has been almost three years.

Episode 9 of The Agency, fittingly titled “The Rubicon”, only has one real job – to set up the season finale.

I’m not going to tell you that Season 2 of Silo has been perfect, but I’m happy to say unequivocally, without any hyperbole whatsoever, that...

Season 2 of Castlevania: Nocturne provides a surprisingly tender ending that in many ways avoids a lot of the more potentially pesky narrative decisions. Everyone...

We’re at a point now where anything that debuts on Netflix with Castlevania in the title is a guaranteed good time, which if you’d told...

If you’ve seen Season 1, I’m sure you know the base story of Jenny Hans’ Netflix Series, XO Kitty. If you haven’t, however, here’s a...

High Potential Episode 9 also weaves the Roman subplot right through it instead of confining it to the margins, which means Morgan takes a break from investigating Marvin’s death to accompany Selena to a meeting with Gio, the elusive criminal concierge that Roman was somehow connected to.

A question that occurred to me midway through When the Stars Gossip Episode 4 – what, exactly are we supposed to be latching onto here? It’s a worthwhile question.

“Ten of Swords” lacks most of the gothic atmosphere that the premiere was able to create, and instead settles into an odd rhythm of concurrent storylines, some real and some more esoteric, none of which are especially interesting.

Nobody was expecting a happy ending to Landman, and Episode 10, “The Crumbs of Hope”, is the furthest thing from one. But I was pretty...

When the Stars Gossip has been, thus far, a very strange and silly show, with a far-out premise about fertilizing eggs in space and a lot of low-stakes slapstick to pad out the episode runtime.

Ad Vitam isn’t a very good movie, and its ending helps to illuminate precisely why that is. After a stellar start and then an incredibly...

Ad Vitam plays out like someone challenged director Rodolphe Lauga to make a very simple film as needlessly, off-puttingly convoluted as possible. It starts out...

The premiere of The Pitt covers 07:00-08:00 and 08:00-09:00 of a single continuous shift at the fictional Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center.
