Star Wars Rebels “The Mystery of Chopper Base”
Star Wars Rebels has been building towards their season finale steadily. Which means that they’ve delayed the trip to Malachor one last time. But they still gave a good show…..

Marvel’s Daredevil: “New York’s Finest”
I’m pretty impressed with the way Marvel’s Daredevil is handling the Punisher. This is no secret, because I’ve spent two reviews now fawning over both the character and Jon Bernthal’s performance. But….
The Flash “Trajectory”
The Flash came back just in time for the Supergirl crossover they’ve been setting up. Everything came roughly around the same time, too. Almost like they’d planned it that way….
The People v. O.J. Simpson: “A Jury in Jail”
We all new that The People v. O.J. Simpson wouldn’t be able to maintain the breakneck momentum of its last three stellar episodes. No show could (maybe Fargo or Hannibal). “A Jury in Jail”….
Marvel’s Daredevil: “Dogs To a Gunfight”
When your season premiere ends with your main character getting shot in the head, it becomes a hard act to follow. “Dogs To a Gunfight” fails, at times, to retain….
Supergirl “Manhunter”
As you could probably guess from the title, this episode of Supergirl dealt mostly with J’onn J’onzz. Specifically, how he became Hank Henshaw. Which is fine, because we get to….
11.22.63: “Happy Birthday, Lee Harvey Oswald”
One of my favorite aspects of 11.22.63 is the idea of the past as a sentient being, and a protective, malevolent one at that. Someone or something that resents Jake’s intrusive presence,….
Better Call Saul: “Bali Ha’i”
Better Call Saul can be a very difficult show to grade on a numerical scale. Sometimes things happen, and that’s good. Sometimes things don’t happen, and that’s, somehow, also good. It’s a bit….
House of Cards: “Chapter 47”
House of Cards is allowed to be many things: weird, nasty, cynical, satirical, pulpy. One thing it is never allowed to be is boring. “Chapter 47” wasn’t a total trainwreck, but….
Marvel’s Daredevil: “Bang”
War is coming to Hell’s Kitchen. That’s the message of “Bang,” the tense, thrilling slow burn beginning to season two of Marvel’s Daredevil. It takes balls to start a season with a….
The Walking Dead: “Twice As Far”
Could this be the worst episode of The Walking Dead ever? If it isn’t, it’s certainly in the top (or bottom) three. This is “season two on a farm” bad. “Twice As….
Transformers: Robots in Disguise “Cover Me”
Transformers: Robots in Disguise has been pretty focused on the home team the past few weeks. So it was only a matter of time until we’d get to see the….
