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 […]

Gentleman Jack Season One Review
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 […]
Black Mirror Season Five Review
I think it’s safe to say that Netflix’s Black Mirror, once the toast of the television universe, has hit the point of diminished returns with its most recent four episodes (the series’s completed fifth season, which dropped this past week, and the interactive episode “Bandersnatch,” which aired at the end of 2018). What was once […]
Chernobyl Review
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 […]
Killing Eve Season Two (Spoiler-Filled) Review
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 […]
Game of Thrones: What Could Happen Next
The Game of Thrones is over. The White Walkers have been defeated, the North has gained its independence and a Stark has been elected to rule the remaining kingdoms. The TV series has come to an end and the conclusion being divisive, to say the least, and the events of the final season do have […]
Game of Thrones – The Iron Throne Review
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 […]
What to Watch on HBO Now that Game of Thrones is Ending
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? […]
Bodyguard Season One Review
Bodyguard was one of the biggest hits from the BBC in recent years, being a big blockbuster show from the broadcaster. The UK is suffering from a heightened terrorist threat and the Home Secretary Julia Montague (Keeley Hawes) plans to introduce a controversial bill that would widen the powers of the security services. In the midst […]
Game of Thrones – The Bells Review
Let’s get this out of the way right now: That was not a good episode of television. It certainly wasn’t a good penultimate episode of a series. And it definitely wasn’t a good penultimate episode of television for a series that has spent so many years toiling in the minutia of character development and palace […]
