Season 4 of The Witcher has its back against the wall in the most considerable way possible. Nobody liked the previous season very much, and that was...

There’s a very compelling argument to be made that, at least under Disney, Star Wars: Visions is the most interesting and perhaps even important project...

Star Wars: Visions returns for Season 3 with another batch of experimental non-canon short films plucked from prominent animation studios all over the world. As ever,...

Talamasca: The Secret Order kind of relies on Guy Anatole being smart, which is a bit of a problem, since Episode 2 reveals him to be a total idiot.

The smartest decision that Talamasca: The Secret Order makes is presenting itself as a straight-up spy thriller.

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...

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.

In many ways, the ending of Peacemaker Season 2 is exactly the opposite of what audiences have come to expect from the finale of a...

If you want to build sympathy for anything in film and TV, you make it resemble an animal.

Invasion never does itself any favours, does it? After finally injecting some pace into Season 3 with the reveal that Infinitas were really an alien-worshipping death cult, it pumped the brakes immediately for an explanatory flashback episode nobody wanted.

It might have taken ages for Peacemaker Season 2 to finally get good, but now that the ball’s rolling, it has quickly generated enough speed to carry right through into the finale.

Don’t let me keep you in suspense. Yes, Bon Appetit, Your Majesty has the happy ending everyone wanted. Episode 12 isn’t about historical realism or...

It’s Episode 11, aka the penultimate instalment of Bon Appetit, Your Majesty, and finally, the K-Drama is starting to act like a show with some pretty significant threads to wrap up that can’t afford to waste three episodes on a cooking contest.

I’ve been waiting ages for Peacemaker Season 2 to really get going. I thought the process might be incremental, but in Episode 6, it happens all at once.

Invasion Season 3's clear turning point was the reveal that Infinitas weren't just some anti-government hacker collective, but an alien-worshipping death cult.

Who knew unjust imprisonment could be so… romantic?

For a while now, I’ve been complaining about Bon Appetit, Your Majesty wasting time on this damn cooking competition.

Peacemaker has spent most of Season 2 in the grip of a holding pattern, one that is very funny and silly in the moment but has largely only achieved reiterating its clutch of underlying character ideas (you’ll notice that there’s no real overarching plot or villain this season).

When you think about it, Invasion has always been an extremely simple story told in the most needlessly complex way possible.

And here I was, complaining about how long it took Bon Appetit, Your Majesty to finally get around to the cooking competition.
