I’ve been writing about television for the past six years, and for much of that time, Emmy Nomination day was my second least-favorite day of the year (the Emmy Awards themselves were my least-favorite day, for a variety of reasons). Every Tuesday, I would read through the list of nominees and get angry over how […]
I will admit that I was part of the camp of critics who thought Stranger Things probably should have ended after its initial season (I feel I should also admit that I didn’t really like that first season all that much). Then came Stranger Things 2, which I enjoyed even more than season one (although […]
I will admit I came pretty late to the Schitt’s Creek party, but I cannot tell you how glad I am that I arrived before the show ends its six season run next year. As a recent convert to the genius of Daniel Levy and this thoroughly delightful and wonderful world of misfits he has […]
After posting my thoughts on Star Trek: Discovery at the start of its second season, I said I would keep watching, hoping that things might turn out better than the mess that occurred with the show’s first season (although I didn’t hold out much hope that I would be a Discovery convert come the end […]
Note: This review contains spoilers for the entire first season of Gentleman Jack. If you haven’t watched the entire season, please read the review once you have. Gentleman Jack is a rarity in the TV world: a regency queer romance that is shored up by several great performances, where the show’s central lesbian couple actually […]

What was once […]
Chernobyl, the excellent miniseries from HBO that recently completed its five-episode run, is many things. A story about a tragedy from the recent past, a look into the bureaucracy that plagued the Soviet Union in its waning years, a deep dive into the terrifying effects of nuclear power (and what it can do to help […]
Note: This article will contain spoilers for seasons one and two of Killing Eve. If you haven’t watched either season, might I recommend dropping what you are currently doing and starting? Season one is available on Hulu and season two is on demand from BBC America/AMC. I absolutely loved the first season of BBC America’s […]
Well, I didn’t quite get it all right with my prediction last week, but I got pretty darn close. Jon didn’t get the Throne – instead he got a trip back to The Wall (the only place he ever truly fit in, if we’re being honest), and a really lovely reunion with Ghost (I still […]
So, Game of Thrones is about to end and you still have your HBO subscription for the rest of the month and want to make the most of it? Or, you’ve opted to wait it out until Big Little Lies returns later this summer, and you’re looking for something to tide you over until then? […]
