It’s a Sin, the sensational limited series from Russell T. Davies (the acclaimed showrunner behind the original Queer as Folk and the first four seasons of the modern Doctor Who, among others), chronicles a decade in the lives of several friends (most of whom are gay men – although there is one straight woman in […]
“Breaking the Fourth Wall” was a game-changer episode of WandaVision across a number of fronts. On the story side of the equation, we received confirmation as to just who nosy neighbor Agnes really is (confirming the suspicions of just about everyone – including me). On the theme-side of things, well, after spending 6.5 episodes in […]
For a show that already seemed refreshingly content on making Walker’s partner Micki Ramirez into a genuine co-star, the series’ fourth episode, “Don’t Fence Me In”, truly helped Micki shine and rightfully take her place as an equal. After being called by a local sheriff to a Texas oil well, Walker and Micki chase down […]
While dark and gruesome usually aren’t in the lexicon of older-skewing dramas on CBS, recent additions like Evil (CBS) and Jordan Peele’s The Twilight Zone (CBS All Access) have opened up some previously uncharted waters.

Britney Spears’ 2001 ballad “I’m not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman” opens with a verse that includes “But now I know that life doesn’t always go my way.” Sadly, that seems to be an understatement and foreshadowing what was to come for her. Many fans see Britney Spears now like the singer in that […]

With Vision unable to truly break free of the hold Wanda has on Westview and […]
It’s brooding and heavy. It’s about loss and redemption. It’s about putting together a family. It’s about changing perceptions of policing. It’s about immigration and acceptance. Wait—did I submit the wrong review? Am I really describing Walker? The CW’s Walker (Thursdays at 8 pm EST) is about as similar to the original CBS series, Walker […]
It struggles to stay consistent. It’s a work in progress. And yet you get a strong feeling it might be considerably better as the season goes on. That accurately described the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in their first game of the season last fall. And it also accurately describes the pilot episode of The Equalizer, the […]
The 2020 version of Black Narcissus was a lavish three-part miniseries for FX and BBC One and aimed to bring Rumer Godden’s story to a new generation. Sister Clodagh (Gemma Arterton) is an Irish nun in India who gets offered the Sister Superior role for a new mission in the Himalayans. Sister Clodagh takes four nuns with […]
