One of the things that we’ll give “Ballers” at present the most credit for is trying to be as authentic as possible when it comes to its storytelling. If you want to see real NFL talent integrated into a show all about the subject matter, you don’t really have to look any further than here. […]
Here’s a random / interesting thought: Did anyone make a connection in the “Ballers” writers room where Spencer and Tracy’s names put side by side are the name of a famous Old Hollywood icon? We didn’t even realize the whole Spencer Tracy connection until we wrote out the title above. Anyway, we’re not going to pursue that […]
The third season of “The Last Ship” has provided a tremendous source of drama so far, but we tend to prefer our drama when it doesn’t come with characters being killed off. Unfortunately, that happened at the end of Sunday night’s new episode “Dog Day,” which did prove itself to be an extremely dangerous affair […]
At this point on “Preacher,” Jesse Custer at least has a pretty good idea precisely what was inhabiting him; yet, that does not quite mean that he was able to escape its burden on him. As a matter of fact, you could argue that by the end of the hour, matters only got worse for […]
The third season of “Power” premiered on Starz Sunday night, and with that, we saw Ghost start things off claiming that this side of himself was dead. Instead, he was all about James … or at least Jamie. He was ready to embrace who he wanted to be now. Unfortunately, here is the problem: It’s not so […]
“Power” is a story that is in many ways complicated, but at the same time you could argue that it’s rather simple. If you want to be out, why not just get out? There’s always going to be another loose end, or another demon ready to lure you back into your painful past. Through Sunday […]
The first episode of “The Night Of” was fantastic, and of course with that comes one thing and one thing only: Expectations. Could episode 2 live up to the hype of the pilot? We really see much of that coming down to a matter of perspective. For example, if you found yourselves frustrated in any […]
We are only two episodes away now from the end of “Preacher” on AMC, but one thing certainly feels clear: Jesse Custer is in danger, perhaps more so than he has ever been. His powers, and his subsequent actions, are coming home to roost, and this is something that he is going to have to […]
At the start of “The Last Ship” Sunday night, of course you wanted to have some hope that maybe things could calm down and Chandler would save the day in the battle against Takehaya … but it’s really never that easy, is it? In this world, there are almost always complications, and it doesn’t quite […]
Through two episodes, “The Night Of” has certainly brought some compelling storytelling to the table; we’ve had the murder of Andrea, the early stages of the investigation, and also the early efforts of attorney John Stone to try and help Nasir. So far, it has shown to be a relatively difficult experience for him since […]
