Critic’s Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 4.5 Was anyone expecting that cliffhanger?  Before we discuss that, let’s discuss how Denise Glenn and her theories on apprenticeship pushed Oliver and Bex closer together on The Hunting Party Season 1 Episode 8. She thought she was the master and deserved to be remembered for all her theories on

Hiatuses suck, but we’ve made it to the other side of this one! That’s right; Chicago PD is back with an all-new episode, and it’s an intriguing Kim-centric that implies that the series may get a bit creative with their latest case. Let’s just say it involves a diner and Kim’s memory. (Elizabeth Sisson/NBC) When

Critic’s Rating: 3.25 / 5.0 3.25 The Righteous Gemstones has traded hilarity for more serious storytelling, and I’m unsure whether it’s working. The series has long engaged audiences because of its knack for changing things up, and The Righteous Gemstones Season 4 Episode 3 did it again. The addition of Megan Mullally as Lori Milsap

No one could’ve prepared for the sensational effect of The Pitt and how it’s taken off. The hit medical drama is one of the year’s greatest series. It is heralded for its realism, authenticity, and ability to genuinely spotlight first responders as real medical heroes while telling their stories. The Pitt bolsters an impressive cast

Jealousy is an ugly thing. And if you’re Tate Black, it’ll make you do the one thing that’ll ensure you lose your girlfriend to your romantic rival. Days of Our Lives spoilers for the week of 3-24-25 suggest Tate’s latest move will only push Holly into Doug III’s arms — and there may be no

The NCIS franchise is expanding exponentially. You’d think it would run out of stories after over 20 years on the air. But despite NCIS: Hawai’i, NCIS: Los Angeles, and NCIS: New Orleans ending their runs, we have the mothership, NCIS: Origins, NCIS: Sydney, and the upcoming NCIS: Tony & Ziva.

As Happy Face premiered on Paramount+, its story marked a new path in the true crime genre — one told through the eyes of a serial killer’s daughter. Based on the life of Melissa Moore, daughter of Keith Jesperson, the series quickly drew attention for its refusal to glorify violence and its emotional lens on

Critic’s Rating: 4.7 / 5.0 4.7 Law & Order: SVU Season 26 Episode 16 got me good. I didn’t understand why we needed a sequel to Ellie’s coma story, but it all came together beautifully. I especially appreciated the connection to Benson’s personal history—something Law & Order: SVU used to do regularly but has forgotten

We need to talk about Michael Ormewood. Is it me, or is he slowly becoming one of the MVPs of Will Trent Season 3? The season is already shaping up to be the strongest of the series thus far, and that’s saying a lot, as Will Trent has been absolute fire ever since it premiered

Critic’s Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 3.5 When it comes to true crime dramas, I typically walk away feeling like I’ve wasted my time because they add too many perspectives and what-ifs to a sensitive situation. The result is usually an over-stuffed affair that doesn’t do the story justice. Thankfully, Good American Family zeroes in on

True crime has long captivated audiences, but rarely has it been told through the eyes of those left to deal with the consequences. Happy Face, the new Paramount+ series, breaks the mold by shifting the focus from the killer to his family — most notably, his daughter, Melissa Moore. The series dramatizes Melissa’s struggle to

Critic’s Rating: 4.3 / 5.0 4.3 Are we all bracing ourselves for “Seth’s revenge,” or am I being paranoid? We finally made some headway on The Rookie Season 7 Episode 10 with Seth, but there’s no way that’s the end of his story, right? Meanwhile, the team had to manage a riot at the station

What a messy case! It wasn’t clear who was more wrong in Law & Order: SVU Season 26 Episode 15, but we did our best to resolve the issue. Our TV Fanatic writers Laura Nowak, Jasmine Blu, and Jack Ori debate whether Stacey’s defense was reasonable, whether Carisi had a point about the double standard,

Critic’s Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 4.5 Was that the most surprising case of the season? If they wanted to combine emotions with twists and turns, The Hunting Party Season 1 Episode 7 delivered with a twist on the Ted Bundy case. This was an entertaining one! We also have to discuss the Silo 12 mystery

I love a great crime drama. They’re riveting, make you ask questions, and prod at things like flawed infrastructures.  So many crime dramas approach angles of the show from the point of view of a grizzled, jaded law enforcement officer determined to expose or take down something.  Sometimes, we view things from the “bad guy”

Critic’s Rating: 4.15 / 5.0 4.15 After feeling a little short-changed about excluding characters we’ve grown to love from The Righteous Gemstones Season 4 Episode 1, the follow-up made up for it in a big way. The Righteous Gemstones Season 4 Episode 2 re-introduced everyone and kicked off the final arcs for the Gemstones in

This is a scene-by-scene recap of 1923 Season 2 Episode 4, “Journey the Rivers of Iron.” For a discussion of the episode, please visit the 1923 Season 2 Episode 4 review.

The FBI chase scene is so common that I can’t remember the last time an episode didn’t have one… if ever. These scenes are meant to get viewers hearts’ pumping as our favorite FBI agents push through crowds, jump fences, or dodge traffic to get close enough to tackle a fleeing suspect. A good chase

It’s been a rough year in Salem, and it’s about to get rougher. Get your tissues ready.
