Episode Reviews
Threnody(s) gave us a moment to breathe in what has so far been a fast-paced season. It also brought the deaths of two long-lasting characters.
In Episode 4 of Cosmos: Possible Worlds, we explore the life and legacy of the great scientist, Nikolai Vavilov.
By tackling an issue that the real world is facing right now, Westworld season three becomes even more exciting and relevant.
In the third episode of Cosmos: Possible Worlds, we explore the Lost City of Life that covered our planet billions of years ago.
If we remember to cling to the wonderful parts of these episodes, then we can get through this tumultuous season of RuPaul’s Drag Race.
In Part 2 of The Plot Against America, David Simon and Ed Burns expertly weave together various character plotlines, all of which come to a head on the night of the Presidential Election.
Episode 5 of Devs is a glimpse through time for our characters, utilizing impressive visual effects in the process.
Cosmos: Possible Worlds continues to present science exactly as it should be presented: as a critically important, yet fascinating journey of discovery and enlightenment, a candle in the darkness of our relatively short journey as a species.
While we’ve followed the bad batch for four episodes now, the reintroduction of Mace Windu and Obi-Wan Kenobi helps to signal to us that we’ve arrived at a new plotline.
Episode 2, “The Winter Line”, retains the energy the premiere of Westworld Season 3 established, giving us what we want: Maeve.
If the purpose of “Et in Arcadia Ego, Part 1” was to reassure viewers that all we’ve seen up to this point mattered, well… mission failed.
As Homeland’s “F**ker Shot Me” and the preceding episodes depict, the only thing “exceptional” about America is its hypocrisy.
Hopefully, next week’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race season 12 will be better and we can see if this setup will mold itself into a satisfying arc.
The Plot Against America “Part 1” is a textbook example of perfection in building a narrative foundation.
“A Ladder to the Stars” is, at its heart, a simple story, the same hero’s journey all of us have experienced a thousand times over.
