I don’t understand Tyrant. Not once had Jamal ever mentioned fishing, and in these last two episodes he wouldn’t shut up about it. Also, he tells Barry that they should “play with each other,”...

God help me, I really liked Tyrant this week. It’s easy to call “Gaslight” the best episode of the season, because as I pointed out a few weeks ago, “good” and “good for Tyrant”...

“Meet the New Boss” was a surprisingly enjoyable episode of Tyrant. Barry’s decision to remove Jamal from office has given this show a serious shot of life, which it sorely needed after Sheik Rashid’s...

Tyrant is still a very, very problematic show, but I have to give credit where credit is due: “Preventative Medicine,” the show’s seventh episode, was not perfect (not by a long shot), but it...

So my question for Tyrant is, who is the titular ruler? It’s not Khaled, because he died in episode one. It’s not Barry, because he’s not President. Well, is it Jamal? I don’t know,...

Allow me, if you will, to quote something I wrote in my review of the last episode of Game of Thrones: This is going to be a depressing week for Trevor, because Game of...

I think I’m getting more and more nitpicky when reviewing Tyrant; for instance, the first note I took while watching “Sins of the Father” was just “I hate jogging scenes.” Which I do, I...

(Author’s Note: sorry this didn’t go up yesterday, but I was in court all day over a damn fix-it ticket and really didn’t feel like sitting through Tyrant when I got home.)  How this...

Remember last week, when I said that Jamal could be Tyrant‘s biggest problem? Never mind, it’s Barry. Or the dialogue. Or the lack of subtitles. Point is, Tyrant has a few problems that it...

I’m torn about Tyrant. FX played things admirably close to the vest, doling out details little by little, which raised my anticipation. It comes from 24‘s Howard Gordon and Homeland‘s Gideon Raff. The pilot...
