The Matlock writers just won’t give Kathy Bate’s Madeline a break. They’re going to end up giving that sweet old lady a heart attack before she has a chance to get justice for her daughter. First, there was the matter of someone recognizing Matty at the end of “Claws,” and now it seems like her

Critic’s Rating: 4.7 / 5.0 4.7 Everyone deserves to have their voice heard. That’s why Dr. Wolf fought for John Doe, aka Roman, to have the experimental procedure. Brilliant Minds Season 1 Episode 7 was a beautifully crafted episode that explored Roman’s backstory and why he needed to be heard. Almost every doctor and intern

Some will always disagree, but fantasy TV has undeniably gone south. That’s not saying much since fantasy has never been a strong genre, with a few notable exceptions. Everyone is trying to replicate the success and appeal of Game of Thrones, and no one is asking themselves: What made Game of Thrones so good to

Critic’s Rating: 2.75 / 5.0 2.75 The Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2 premiere opened with a moment that viewers have dreaded yet anticipated: the tragic death of John Dutton.  “Desire Is All You Need” navigates the shockwave that ripples through the Dutton family and those closest to them.  Yet, instead of embracing the intense fallout

If there’s one thing Yellowstone fans can’t get enough of, it’s the fiercely passionate relationship between Beth and Rip. I recently had the thrill of chatting with Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser, and let me tell you, the excitement in the air was almost palpable. They’re just as magnetic off-screen as they are on it,

As Yellowstone Season 5 gears up for the explosive continuation, fans are bracing for answers to questions that have been brewing since the show’s inception.  Amid power struggles, familial loyalty, and fierce devotion to the land, one of the most captivating dynamics remains the evolving relationship between the Dutton family and Thomas Rainwater, the chairman

How do you take an already ridiculously attractive cast like the stars of NCIS: Origins and make them even shinier? Throw them into formal wear and send them out for a night on the town. That’s what “Incognito” is serving viewers in its promo. However, the main thing to take away is the clear spotlight

Critic’s Rating: 4.4 / 5.0 4.4 Women often compare themselves to others. It’s part of our nature. We frequently want what others have –their beauty, job, or man. In Three Women Season 1 Episode 9, that came to ruin Sloane’s life, as the episode explored her point of view and Gia and Lily’s. Sloane is

We often watch TV to escape an increasingly distressing world, but some shows do the opposite. TV shows can spark real-world change by raising awareness of issues, and some go even further, encouraging viewers to take action for social change. Television can be an incredibly powerful yet underrated tool for activism. There’s a reason books

Critic’s Rating: 4.2 / 5.0 4.2 Well, it’s been a while since the writers have given us quite so much in one episode, but Grey’s Anatomy Season 21 Episode 6 proved that they’ve still got it. For a while, it’s felt as if the show wanted to play it safe, opting for easily resolved storylines

Classic action movies, fantasy, drama, crime — you name it — the entertainment industry is all about remakes and reboots these days. Yeah, they’re not exactly the best at it, but there are a few gemstones among the copious oodles of mediocrity. Even a blind squirrel will find an acorn occasionally, and it’s always nice

Critic’s Rating: 4 / 5.0 4 Detective Kim Burgess has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? It feels damn good to see a woman in some authority somewhere, and she most certainly earned it. Of course, nothing ever comes easy, and Chicago PD Season 12 Episode 6 posed a few challenges for Burgess on

The CBS series Ghosts is still going strong — and for good reason. Now in its fourth season, the UK-adapted comedy has remained entertaining since its 2021 debut. It’s not easy to keep viewers interested, especially when there are a multitude of shows on TV that feature ghosts in just about every form. (CBS (Screenshot))

NBC’s Brilliant Minds offers the best neurodivergent representation I’ve ever seen. As an autistic person, I’m hyper-aware of the stereotypes and negative tropes that plague most characters who have any type of neurodivergence. Even The Good Doctor, despite making huge strides in this area, created more problems than it solved., though Brilliant Minds owes it

Well, well, well, it looks like “Team You Three” is about to become “Team You Two” on Matlock Season 1 Episode 5. Then again, who could blame Olympia for taking to Matty so well? That’s right, Madeline and Olympia are on the fast track to being “besties.” At least, that’s how things are looking for

Critic’s Rating: 5 / 5.0 5 In the real world, tomorrow marks one of the most volatile presidential elections in history, leaving many feeling uneasy, no matter what side they’re on. You have to wonder if the writers had this in mind when crafting NCIS Season 22 Episode 4 because it was a heart-pounding doozy.

Fanatics have been geeking out about Jared Padalecki’s addition to the Fire Country family since the news broke (when). We’ve finally got pictures and a storyline to fill in the blanks for what we know about Jared’s upcoming three-episode appearance as Camden Casey, a SoCal firefighter. This is going to be good!

Critic’s Rating: 3.75 / 5.0 3.75 The Equalizer Season 5 Episode 3 veered away from their usual roles in this episode. Robyn hung back while Harry took the lead, going undercover. We don’t see this often, and it made for an exciting episode! (Courtesy of CBS) It appears it will be a while before the

Critic’s Rating: 4 / 5.0 4 Tyson got very lucky. For now, Tyson remains a free man in his conscience; he is not yet a killer. Joining forces with Dwight means the possibility is always within reach, but for now, he’s free of that guilt. How long will this dynamic last amidst so much chaos?

Critic’s Rating: 4.45 / 5.0 4.45 Was anyone else surprised that this episode coincided with Maggie’s arc after the previous one ended with Gia meeting Sloane? When it was released, Twilight was a phenomenon. I was never gung-ho about it, but Twilight was essential to Maggie Wilken and Aaron Knodel’s relationship. While the series touched
