Evil Season 2 Episode 11 Leland (Michael Emerson) does all the voices, from the venerated holy relics of The Exorcist to Laraine Newman’s Shirley Temple in Saturday Night Live’s takeoff on it. He tosses priests across rooms with one hand tied to a bedpost. He sweats, swears and pukes vile, living, inky blackness from the bowels of hell. He looks lost and defeated, beaten, and busted. But when it’s all over, Leland gives a knowing wink to a suspicious David Acosta (Mike Colter), and bitches about the new kids on the block and those awful fashions....

Evil Season 2 Episode 5 We stumble right into the action on Evil season 2, episode 5, “Z Is for Zombie.” Grainy film footage captures tattered young people fleeing slow-moving zombies, the kind which annoy the younger generation of the genre’s fans. Kristen’s (Katja Herbers) daughter Lila (Skylar Gray) is under the covers sharing a virtual movie night with her friend Alex who is watching next door, and has no idea the life she is about to reanimate, but the imaginary fiend leaves blood on her shoe....

Fargo Season 3 Episode 7 Ray’s shocking accidental death last week created a wave that rocked all of our central characters this week, but somehow “The Law of Inevitability” feels fairly light in content. My notes, usually a sprawling list of plot beats and standout lines, are only a few bullet points long. The fallout from Ray’s demise spelled fear, confusion, and trouble for almost everyone, but that leaves our characters plotting their next moves rather than keeping the action going....

Fear the Walking Dead Season 6 Episode 16 So, you’ve spent the last several years surviving a violent hellscape of unliving death—lucky you! Only now, you suddenly find yourself staring down certain death in the form of a nuclear warhead. Knowing your destruction is imminent, how would you choose to live out your last moments? That’s the basic premise of Fear the Walking Dead’s Season 6 finale, “The Beginning.” And I must admit, I went into this episode with high hopes—only to have those hopes dashed within minutes....

Bridgerton is a unique mix of Shonda Rhimes’ dedication to Black representation on American television and the British period drama tradition. White critics may dismiss this trend as unnecessary “pandering” to Black and POC viewers, but the number of productions designed around reforming all white-casting has increased over the past 10 years—and has only added to the success of the genre. The number one reason driving demand for diverse period dramas is from Black and POC fans of the genre....

You might have guessed it from the title, but Gangs of London is, well, a show about gangs. This brooding, gothic, not-quite-as-we-know-it version of the UK’s capital city is teaming with them, all jostling violently for their position under the watchful gaze of the shadowy, sinister “Investors”. And with the recent arrival of season two, even more criminal factions have been thrown into the extremely volatile mix. Created by The Raid’s Gareth Evans and Matt Flannery, with the second season overseen by lead director Corin Hardy, Gangs of London is a complex beast....

According to Jason Reitman, he never wanted to make a Ghostbusters movie. But while most folks likely don’t stress over such things, most folks are also not the son of Ivan Reitman, director of Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II. And so the conversation of whether he’d ever make a Ghostbusters movie came up at one time or another throughout Jason’s professional life. He heard the question after he found early success in films like Thank You for Smoking (2005), Juno (2007), and Up in the Air (2009), and he heard it again in recent years....

Yet, after playing through the final version of Ghostwire: Tokyo, I still find myself sticking pretty close to that initial impression. Ghostwire: Tokyo is the kind of game that just feels destined to become a cult classic. There is a degree to which Ghostwire‘s presumed cult status is the result of its flaws. The game’s pacing is unusual and uneven, its story really falters in the home stretch, and the game’s combat is…bad....

“Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…even by children. Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views,” read her now-deleted Tik Tok post....

“I’m Catherine, by the way. I’m forty-seven, I’m divorced, I live with my sister – who’s a recovering heroin addict – I have two grown-up children. One dead and one who doesn’t speak to me. And a grandson! So.” That’s how Sgt Catherine Cawood introduced herself to a junkie threatening to light himself on fire, and to us, the audience, in Happy Valley’s opening scene. That speech set out the character’s stall – Catherine was unflappable, no-nonsense, good in a crisis, and had a complicated home life with tragedy in her past....

WarnerMedia undoubtedly had big plans for Wonder Woman 1984 when it scheduled it for a holiday release last year. After moving it to the summer, however, the conglomerate had to delay its theatrical release time and time again. Now HBO Max is the lucky winner of the saga, as it gets to premiere the long-awaited sequel on its servers on Dec. 25. While Wonder Woman 1984 is definitely the headline this month, there are some other intriguing streaming options for HBO Max in December....

The tweet doesn’t include much information, and Kojima Productions’ job page proves to be equally unhelpful. It makes vague mentions to requirements such as a 3D designer who can work on “weapons, gadgets, vehicles, mechas” and someone who is experienced with “Event control system[s] in RPG,” but if you were hoping that Kojima would reveal something more substantial ahead of the project’s official reveal, then you just don’t know the history of a designer’s whose enigmatic games often manage to confuse the people who’ve actually completed them....

Television currently exists in a place where there’s a constant stream of new shows and it becomes incredibly easy for some series to sink and get lost at sea. This can be even more prevalent when it comes to anime since it’s sometimes quite difficult to determine which series really strive to be innovative and challenging. At first glance, High-Rise Invasion looks like an indulgent excuse for sadistic killers to act out Hostel-like slasher fantasies....

The sweet spot of any fantasy adaptation is the point it becomes as compulsive to watch as the books are to read, and season two just arrived there. The episode ended with the major players all set to convene on the same location, raising anticipation for next week’s Cittàgazzan Royal Rumble. If, after the credits rolled, it had only been a matter of turning the page, we’d all surely already be deep into the next chapter....

Aegon Targaryen, Second of His Name, did not want to be king. In fact, it’s unclear what he does want, beyond mayhaps the love of a father that is forever out of reach. Yet into the cauldron of political intrigue and throne games he goes. If the lad wasn’t so repellent as a human being, one might even wonder if his mother Queen Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke) would recognize the irony of another generation having a loathsome crown placed on their head....

After last week’s devastating moon tea stinger, it would be reasonable to assume that House of the Dragon episode 5 “We Light the Way” might continue the story of Rhaenyra Targaryen (Milly Alcock), Alicent Hightower (Emily Carey), and they’re increasingly frayed relationship. Instead, however, HBO’s Game of Thrones prequel zigs when viewers expect it to zag once again. The first scene of this hour features Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) interacting with a character who we haven’t met yet: Lady Rhea Royce of The Vale, played by Rachel Redford....

Both Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon are no strangers to earth-shattering twists. Even with that in mind, however, the closing moments of episode 7 “Driftmark” are particularly shocking. After a languid, damn near leisurely episode, the closing scenes of House of the Dragon‘s seventh installment step on the gas for a series of truly chaotic reveals. Uncle-niece duo Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) and Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) make their union official in the eyes of the gods....

Season 24 of Doctor Who went into production just as its 23rd season, the 14-episode ‘The Trial of a Time-Lord’ was finishing up on TV. By late 1986, producer John Nathan-Turner was expecting to be moved onto another show and had lost both his script-editor and the show’s most prolific writer (the former quitting after long-simmering tensions erupted behind the scenes, and the latter passing away during the making of the series)....

“Like the Avengers…but Asian.” When Tommy (Lawrence Kao) quips this line in a Fistful of Vengeance, it’s almost meta. Fistful of Vengeance is the feature film sequel to Netflix’s 2019 10-episode martial arts driven series Wu Assassins. It is produced in the same spirit as Fox’s Firefly and Serenity or Netflix’s own Sense8 by the Wachowskis (which also had a lot of martial arts.) Beyond Tommy, two other Wu Assassins leads reappear in Fistful of Vengeance....
