If you look back really at the entire history of television, there is generally one universal thought about kid actors in drama series: They are typically not very good. Maybe this sentiment is brought on in part by poor casting, or by trying to give audiences an “aw” factor when it takes away from the […]
“The Big Bang Theory” has a fairly large cast in compared to some other sitcoms, and as a result of that we do from time to time see storylines play out in blocks. For example, most of the second half of season 8 was about Leonard and Penny, while the first half of season 9 […]
We made it no secret that “The Leftovers” season 2 was our favorite work of television in 2015. The writing was superb, and the same certainly goes for many of the performances. The fact that so many actors had their own episodes gave us opportunities to dive into the narrative for every one of them, […]
We are starting to near the home stretch of “Galavant” season 2, and what the ABC series has done so far for the most part is provide some sort of snapshot of many of its different characters. Few of them have been in the same place over the course of the season, and that has […]
“Grey’s Anatomy” is a show with an enormous cast. Unfortunately, there are as a result of this plenty of people who we want to know more about, but for one reason or another, we don’t get a chance to. Ben Warren is one of these such characters. Despite Jason George having a much larger role […]
Before the start of “Beauty and the Beast” season 3, we heard reports that Nicole Gale Anderson was promoted to series regular for her role of Heather. This was great news! It was a chance for Cat to have someone new to work with in scenes, and also for her and Vincent to have a […]
It feels like it has been ages since we’ve had an opportunity to write about “Mistresses” here at CarterMatt, but there is certainly a good reason why: The show simply has not been on the air! Season 3 aired last summer, and for a while it looked like ABC just wasn’t sure what to do […]
Can you call someone an underdog who is a frequent People’s Choice Award nominee? We’re going to, mostly because you’re talking about America The World’s Favorite Angel in Castiel. Misha Collins doesn’t even show up in every episode of “Supernatural,” and yet you would think he does thanks to his internet presence (which includes everything […]
At its core, “Blue Bloods” season 6 is a show about the Reagan family. It’s hard to deny that, and we also understand it. The multi-generational nature of the series is one of the reasons why it is so popular in the first place. It helps it stand out from the flurry of other crime […]
There are a wide array of interesting characters within “Poldark,” but few are more divisive than Francis. Maybe he has some redeeming qualities somewhere in there, but he’s also a gambling addict who struggles to keep his life together, is dependent on others, and whose only victory seems to have been marrying Elizabeth, who Ross […]
