Through five seasons so far, “Game of Thrones” has become a global sensation. It’s the biggest success story in the history of HBO, it draws enormous ratings, and its merchandising is off the charts. It manages to bring them countless money and attention, and this is with it only airing for ten weeks a year. […]
How do you spin off a show like “Castle”? It’s an interesting question, given that so many of the characters are integral to the story. You cannot do something just about Rick or Kate, for example, since you would be forcing one of them away from the other. That’s a sight that nobody out there […]
For many years, we wondered whether or not “Supernatural” was ever going to be given a spin-off, only to then have the backdoor pilot for “Bloodlines” arrive. On paper, this was a smart idea to craft something that could be the big-city alternative to the Jensen Ackles – Jared Padalecki series that had a little […]
At the moment, “Luther” is a series in a sort of stasis. The BBC has not announced if there will be more story to tell for Idris Elba and company; as a matter of fact, there are some indications that we may be at the end of the show on TV. Now that we’ve said […]

An older Jennifer Worth (Vanessa Redgrave) serves as the show’s narrator, and much of the action in Nonnatus House was told through her lens. Since her departure it has become more of an […]
Who knew that “The Vampire Diaries” would have such an interesting roster of recurring guest stars for season 7?

Throughout this season on “The Blacklist,” we’ve seen Tom Keen try to figure out a way to fit into the story, and at times, it has proven itself to be rather difficult. He doesn’t have that many connections to the task force beyond Liz, and his relationship with Reddington is certainly rather complicated and then […]
At times, we feel almost like “Scandal” is a pair of different shows. You’ve got at one angle everything that Olivia Pope is doing fixing clients in Washington DC, and then on the other hand everything that is going on with the likes of Jake, Rowan, and a variety of other secret government operations. In […]
“Scorpion” has done a really great job over the course of the series’ run when it comes to cultivating characters. You’ve got a great core group of interesting, quirky people who have such depth and heart to go along with their intelligence, and you really want to see them succeed. With that, we transition now […]
We have definitely made our adoration of all things “Suits” clear at CarterMatt over the years, and one of the many things that we love about is that there is this great arsenal of recurring characters that the writers can go to in order to fill out a story. One of the things that we’ve […]
