There comes a point in every season of serialized television where the writers have to make a choice on just how to solve the conundrum that has been driving the plot forward until the climactic moment of the season. There’s no right or wrong answer to whatever choice they make. After all, it was the […]
Well, I guess we all knew it was too good to be true. Just when it looked like the Mandalorians would be able to band together, putting aside their differences and uniting to return to Mandalore once more, Moff Gideon had to arrive and spoil the party. And with his return, a number of lingering […]
The fifth and final season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is a strange amalgam of the best things about the series (chiefly, its two leading ladies) and the most annoying (the characters, the uneven pacing) – along with the both interesting and frustrating new addition of copious time jumps throughout episodes. In short, if you’ve […]
Well, that wasn’t quite the episode I was expecting at this stage of the game for Star Trek: Picard, but it did its job (which was to dispense of our first villain and move the story a step closer to resolving the main conflict of the season – what’s going to happen at Frontier Day). […]
Well, that was an utterly anticlimactic episode of television. In truth, it felt much more like an episode of Law and Order than an episode of The Mandalorian (complete with the guilty party being the most famous actor who appears at a seemingly inconsequential moment in the action). Sure, we got some big named – […]
I had incredibly high hopes for Tiny Beautiful Things. Kathryn Hahn, who is having a hell of a moment, leading a dramedy about a woman falling apart while trying to provide advice to others?

In my review of season one of Schmigadoon!, I worried that the series might not appeal to those who weren’t, like me, big time musical theatre fans. After all, if you can’t tell your Lerner and Loewe from your Rogers and Hammerstein, would you really care about a television series parodying their biggest hits and […]
Have you ever wondered just how the Pink Ladies of the musical Grease got their start? Well, wonder no more, as Paramount+ is continuing to dig deep into their existing IP well of content (after successfully rebooting its once dormant Star Trek franchise over the last several years – well, somewhat successfully) to craft new […]
Oh god. Poor Tuvok. For some reason, until that reveal – and the rather graphic description of just what torture Tuvok was being forced to endure – the true danger of the Changeling infiltration hadn’t really hit me. Sure, they might (read: almost certainly will) try to blow up the Fleet at Frontier Day (along […]
Now we’re getting somewhere! After a slow start to season three (with some pretty great highs, but a lot of running in place in terms of a central season arc), The Mandalorian has placed its chips on the table to let us know just what we’re looking at for the remainder of the season arc. […]
