It’s rare that I get angry while watching a series, but I was definitely angry whilst watching The Crowded Room, the new mystery box drama from AppleTV+. Now, over the years, I’ve gotten pretty good at figuring out twists and turns in shows. Part of that comes from having to watch so much television for […]
After two episodes of Based on a True Story, I was ready to throw in the towel and admit defeat. A scattered beginning, unlikeable and thinly drawn characters, and a premise that I wasn’t thrilled about marred the show’s opening episodes. But, as it’s my professional rule to give every show I review at least […]

After all, it can become distracting when you know a character should have objected to a line of questioning – or shouldn’t have been allowed to object to a line […]
City on Fire, the new AppleTV+ series from Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage (both best known for The O.C. and Gossip Girl) and based on the novel of the same name from Garth Risk Hallberg, has a lot of DNA in common with those soapy primetime dramas. And, if you’re someone who enjoys a series […]
I’ll be the first to admit that I really don’t understand the appeal of Pete Davidson, the former SNL star who has found himself the fascination of the tabloids, gossip sites, and the world at large (through little of his own doing) over the past several years. I’ve found him to be fine in his […]
If you’ve seen any of the myriad of post-apocalyptic television shows, films, or read any of the books out there, you likely have a basic understanding of the various forces at work within Silo, the new dramatic thriller from AppleTV+, adapted from the series of novels under the same name from Hugh Howey.
