Before ‘Gotham’ started last fall, the show seemed almost destined for failure. That it turned out to be much better than expected was a very welcome surprise. This week, the first season blazed to a close with a very ...
As much as I enjoyed Showtime’s horror series ‘Penny Dreadful’ last summer, I’ll admit that I hadn’t paid much attention to its return date until I happened to spot my DVR recording a new episode on S...
Did the Daenerys Targaryen storyline on ‘Game of Thrones’ finally get interesting again? It’s been a while.
In what may be a small concession to confused viewers, it would appear that even the writers of ‘The Flash’ acknowledge that the science gobbledygook in the show makes no sense. In this week’s episode, the charac...

For the second week in a row, ‘The Flash’ crosses over with ‘Arrow’. I think last week’s event, which brought second-tier characters from that show to Central City, was more successful than this week&...
