Way to go, ‘Under the Dome’. You finally do something halfway interesting this season, and then immediately ret-con it away the very next episode. While I’ve long since given up caring about anything that happens...
Amazingly, ‘The Strain’ did something really daring and interesting this week. Without any introduction or context at all, the episode opened with five minutes worth of scenes from an old black-and-white Mexican wrestl...
Here’s hoping this sorry excuse for an episode is just the calm before the BATTLE STORM! Ugh. This is the ‘Spider-Man 3’ of episodes. EVERYBODY gets a chance to cry. There’s no crying in the apocalypse! Wit...
The interesting thing about the latest episode of ‘Hannibal’ is how faithfully the show (which has always played very fast and loose with its source material in the past) is attempting to adapt the Thomas Harris novel ...

Fox’s alleged “Limited Event” series ‘Wayward Pines’ drew to a close last week, and I stuck with it to the end, sometimes against my better judgment. With all the twists now revealed, was it worth the...
Leave it to ‘Hannibal’, the strangest and most experimental show on any of the major broadcast networks, to open an episode with a five-minute, completely dialogue-free sequence in which a character we’ve never s...
Despite the fact that the last couple of episodes have been much more coherent than what we got earlier in the season, I feel safe in saying now that Season 2 of ‘True Detective’ is a huge disappointment. Not just in c...
In the latest episode of ‘Under the Dome’, the Pod People of Chester’s Mill whistle while they work, we learn that aluminum pull-tabs can be used as deadly weapons, and Julia gets a much-deserved punch to the hea...
