While I have avoided including any spoilers (or, rather, what I consider to be spoilers), if you would like to watch the season knowing absolutely nothing about what will happen and without any idea of where things might go, I would recommend avoiding […]
Lovecraft Country‘s third installment, “Holy Ghost,” was a curious change in narrative structure. For its first two episodes, it seemed as though the series would be a tightly serialized drama.
