Through three episodes of “The Vampire Diaries” season 8, we’ll say that the story is off to a great start when it comes to providing us with something with weight, stakes, and above all series danger. There’s also certainly a large degree of nostalgia, but the question you have to ask coming out of Friday […]
Where are we are now on “Masters of Sex”? Well, let’s just say that Bill and Virginia are closer to getting back in the saddle together as a couple! It’s no surprise given that the two parties do eventually marry in real life, but just because they are together again does not necessarily mean that […]
When ABC first made the decision to give “Designated Survivor” a green light, it was incredibly easy to call this a decision that could lead to some significant ratings. It was a chance to put a show on about the President right in the thick of election season, and you had a proven star in […]
Through most of “Quantico” season 2 — or at least the part of it that constitutes the story in the present — what we’ve seen by and large from the show is a series of training montages. Sure, they’re more exciting than just that, but our frustration is largely that the stakes and the drama […]
The waiting for the third season of “Better Call Saul” will continue for a little while longer longer (think at least a few months), but we’re starting to get more of a feeling as ot what the writers are planning, and also the specific stories that they want to tell. For example, for Mike the […]
At the end of this past episode of “Divorce,” Robert chose to up the ante on the subject of the impending split by deciding that mediation was not the way in which he wanted to go about doing things. Instead, he was convinced that there could potentially be more money in him going off and […]
Given that we’ve spent every week chronicling the ratings journey of “American Horror Story: Roanoke,” we can’t stop that now when the show is starting to look like it may not finish as strong over “Hotel” as we’d previously hoped. This past episode of the sixth season of the FX show drew just a 1.2 […]
We’ve seen some surprises on “Scream Queens” already this season (or in the first season — really anytime. This show does perpetually find a way to surprise us). Yet, somehow seeing Hester get out of her predicament early on this season has to be one of the most surprising. She’s one of those characters who […]
There are few shows out there that have generated the almost-instant pop-culture impression that “Westworld” has in an incredibly short amount of time. There are almost enough theories online for this to be “Lost” all over again, it’s generating positive reviews and controversy, and perhaps most importantly for HBO, it’s giving them a buzzworthy show […]
Once again tonight on “The X Factor” tonight, there was some significant controversy regarding a Honey G performance; however, this one may not be as bad as you would first thing. During her performance of “Jump” from Kris Kross, there was a moment where it sounded as though the rapper said a certain n-word that […]
