Doctor Who – Revolution of the Daleks Review
Series 12 of Doctor Who closed with a cliffhanger where the Doctor got arrested by the Judoon. What was surprising about “Revolution of the Daleks” was it continued a few storylines from the Chris Chibnall era. After the events of “Resolution” GCHQ comes into the procession of a Dalek battle suit. The battle suit gets […]
Doctor Who – Orphan 55 Review
The Twelfth Series moves into horror territory with its third episode. The Doctor and her companions get teleported to an advanced resort for a two-week spa break. But whenever The Doctor arrives in a new location trouble isn’t far behind and The Doctor soon discovers the resort is infested with monsters. “Orphan 55” has quickly […]
Killing Eve – Are You Leading or Am I Review
And, with an incredibly poetic (albeit frustrating) final scene, Killing Eve wraps its most uneven season to date. While I’ve been writing about it for the past eight weeks, often calling it out for its shockingly incoherent plotting and spiraling narrative, I had genuinely high hopes for the finale. I was expecting it to tie […]
Killing Eve – Beautiful Monster Review
Well gang, we’ve done it. We’ve made it through the penultimate episode of season three of Killing Eve, and I sure hope you understand all of what the show is trying to show us better than I do at this point. Watching this episode I had multiple moments where I was genuinely confused at how […]
Killing Eve – Are You From Pinner? Review
I don’t understand the purpose of “Are You From Pinner?”, both as an episode of Killing Eve and as an episode of the series that falls so late in the show’s third season. I think I understand what showrunner Suzanne Heathcote wanted from this episode (to explore a bit more about who Villanelle was and […]
Killing Eve – Still Got It Review
Poor Nico. Yet another casualty of the continue push and pull between Eve and Villanelle, albeit one that didn’t stem from either of their direct actions – which is what makes this particular twist a touch more interesting than those that have become before. Sure, we all knew Nico was unlikely to make it out […]
Killing Eve – Meetings Have Biscuits Review
The problem with all cat and mouse stories is that once the two seemingly incompatible foes have met, the story loses that key element of tension that pulled it along. Now, with Killing Eve, we’re leagues past that initial meeting, but the series is still trying to chase that same high as we, the audience, […]
Killing Eve – Management Sucks Review
And just like that, they pulled her back in. We all knew Eve was going to get back in the game sooner rather than later (there’s no show if Eve isn’t working as a spy in some capacity, after all), and Kenny’s death certainly has provided the perfect path back into the life that has […]
Thoughts on the 2019 Emmy Nominations
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 […]
