I’ll admit that this episode of Severance threw me for a loop in a number of ways and left me with more questions than answers – particularly when it comes to the Cobel arc for this season. In fact, I’ve watched it four times thus far, trying to understand just what is going on with […]

Mythic Quest Season Four Review
The brilliance of Mythic Quest’s fourth season is that it knows precisely what it needs to be and does exactly that. It doesn’t try to get too fancy or splashy. Nope. It takes the characters we know and love, the various relationships on the series – romantic, platonic, professional, and other – and uses them […]
Severance – Goodbye, Mrs. Selvig
Well, this week we got to see just what our main four’s Outies were up to in the time between their Innies’ jail breaks until they reunited back on the Severed Floor at Lumon. Or, rather, we got to see a lot of what Mark and Helena were up to, more of Dylan’s Outie’s life […]
Prime Target Review
There are a number of mental leaps one needs to make whilst watching Prime Target, the new thriller from AppleTV+, but the chief one is that a young maths graduate student at Cambridge would not only be able to deduce the proper theorem that could, ostensibly, be used as a key to unlock all digital […]
Severance – Hello Ms. Cobel Review
And just like that – okay, after a three year wait – Severance is back! Thank Kier. And what a delightful way to throw us back into the world of Lumon, Innies, Outies (of whom we saw next to nothing this week), and Macrodata Refinement. And, I would be remiss not to mention, some absolutely […]
Severance Season Two Review
I won’t bury the lede for you: the long-awaited second season of Severance is great. I easily found myself swept back up into the world of Lumon, rewatching several of my screeners just to be sure that I caught everything I needed to catch to piece together the various arcs unspooling this time around (a […]
Silo Season Two Review
When we last left Silo, AppleTV+’s post-apocalyptic series about the denizens of an underground Silo – where the inhabitants are segregated by a rudimentary caste system and three individuals (the Mayor, the Judge, and the Sheriff) control the goings on in society – Juliette (Rebecca Ferguson), the former Sheriff, had opted to take her chances […]
Bad Sisters Season Two Review
I was pretty high on Bad Sisters back in 2022 when its first season premiered on AppleTV+. In fact, I designated it one of the Best Shows You Aren’t Watching – which, for me, is pretty high praise. When Apple announced that the series, which seemed to wrap things up in a nice little bow […]
Before Review
Billy Crystal, Rosie Perez, Judith Light. With a cast list that includes those names, one would expect the series to be worth a look – and, perhaps, that it might be a light comedy. Unfortunately, Before, the new AppleTV+ miniseries with each of them (created by Sarah Thorp) is neither. This overlong, often ridiculous Sixth […]
Shrinking Season Two Review
I was luke warm on Shrinking back in early 2023 when it premiered. And now, having watched the final four episodes of season one in preparation for watching the first six of the upcoming second season, I see more of what the series was trying to do in its uneven initial series offering. That’s a […]
