Waiting for the ending of a Harlan Coben series is like staying after the credits in a Marvel movie, and Caught is no different. It...

It’s beginning to feel like I’m in the plot of a novel about an ill-tempered critic who is being haunted by Harlan Coben adaptations. We’ve...

The last ten minutes of “Excessive Force”, in particular, felt like everything long-time fans of the Netflix shows want from these characters.

The Hunting Party is getting rather good, isn't it? I love watching the trajectory of a show in real-time; the so-so episodes when it's figuring out what works (and what doesn't), and then the better ones when it finds its feet and focus.

I have a personal theory that no boat trip in the history of mankind has ever been an especially good idea, and this is truer in the world of The White Lotus than anywhere else.

The word of the day is languishing. That’s the one that keeps springing to mind during Surface Season 2, anyway. In Episode 5, “Daybreak”, we continue to take the most circuitous route possible to conclusions that we just know aren’t going to be worth the aggro when we get there.

I’m not sure now’s the time to be introducing new characters into Yellowjackets Season 3. The show has mostly worked by maintaining a tight cast, albeit two distinct versions of them.

Season 2 of Severance has had its ups and downs; there’s no doubt about that. We’ve had bottle episodes that offered little and compensatory follow-ups...

If you were to summarize the Korean crime film Revelations, you’d come to the consensus that the story is about testing one’s moral framework, with...

The most charitable thing I’m willing to say about Tyler Perry’s Duplicity is that it probably won’t end up being the worst movie of the...

Reacher Season 3 has potentially been an episode or two too long. The season overall has been decent, and there’s so much to wrap up in the finale – including Reacher’s revenge mission, Teresa’s rescue, and the fate of Richard – that it’s virtually guaranteed to be action-packed.

It turns out I’m in the minority here, but I genuinely thought Episode 4 of Daredevil: Born Again was one of the best episodes of Daredevil ever.

If nothing else, The Hunting Party is heading in the right direction. Episode 7 seems to have settled on what works best about the show, much like the previous episode did.

Buddhism is snaking through The White Lotus Season 3 like a vein, pumping life-giving thematic resonance through arteries and organs and back again.

Yellowjackets Season 3 felt like it was starting to get going in the previous episode, even though it was lacking those big, key developments.

You’ve got to appreciate Surface taking some chances in Season 2, even if the results might end up being a little mixed.

For the first time in Season 2, Severance delivered what many would consider to be a bad episode.

In many ways, Episode 6 of Reacher Season 3 is a payoff to the excellent fourth episode. That was where you really felt the menace of Xavier Quinn, the season’s Big Bad who has largely been developed through absence and implication.

It’s sometimes easy to forget that Matt Murdock is a lawyer since most of the justice he dispenses comes via his fists.

The White Lotus is always about a murder. Season 3 is potentially about several; we know this because the premiere featured a bunch of gunshots and at least one floating corpse.
