‘Wayward Pines’ 2.01 & 2.02 Recaps: “IR
I’m not really sure how ‘Wayward Pines’ got renewed for a second season. The show was promoted as a one-time “Limited Event” series last summer. Although it ended on something of a cliffhanger, it fra...

The past few weeks have been very busy and I’m still catching up on the many TV season finales that aired recently. Forgive the lateness of some of these recaps, but I still plan to follow through with shows I’ve follo...
