Strange New Worlds’ Recap, Season 2, Episode 10
[ad_1] Photo: Michael Gibson/Paramount+/Michael Gibson/Paramount+ Here the other shoe drops. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has been setting up a full-on direct conflict with the Gorn since first alluding to the brutal lizard people in the first season, then suggested that conflict was imminent in “The Broken Circle,” the second-season premiere. Since then: nothing, or at least […]
‘And Just Like That …’ Recap, Season 2, Episode 9
[ad_1] And Just Like That There Goes the Neighborhood Season 2 Episode 9 Editor’s Rating 3 stars *** Photo: MAX Bad news, friends: If you’ve arrived at this recap to see if there has been any further development on the fact that last week Carrie — out loud, mind you — wondered if choosing Big […]
Real Housewives of Orange County Recap: Season 17 Episode 10
[ad_1] The moment that Shannon Storms Beador figures out what is good for her is the moment that she stops being one of our greatest practitioners of the reality television arts and sciences. There are queens that know how to make great TV — people like Kenya Moore, Kyle Richards, and Lisa Vanderpump — and […]
‘The Afterparty’ Recap, Season Two, Episode 6: Danner
[ad_1] The Afterparty Danner’s Fire Season 2 Episode 6 Editor’s Rating 3 stars *** Photo: Apple TV+ This week’s episode, as Danner promised Aniq in last week’s episode, explains why she really quit the force. It’s entertaining but doesn’t do much for our murder mystery at hand, and since we’ve crossed the middle-of-the-season threshold, that fact is a bummer […]
‘Reservation Dogs’ Recap, Season 3, Episode 3: Deer Lady
[ad_1] Before we start the recap in earnest, a quick note that we’ll be touching on the episode’s depictions of Residential/Boarding School abduction and abuse. By now, we know that Reservation Dogs has never shied away from tackling tough topics within NDN Country, and this week’s episode is no exception. We are again brutally reminded that Daniel’s […]

Carolyn and Raylan sitting in a police-issued vehicle drinking Blanton’s … k-i-s-s-i-n-g … Okay, I’m very bad at rhyming. And fine — we don’t know exactly where the aisle-crossing hookup between Raylan, the deputy U.S. Marshal tasked with finding Judge Guy’s murderer, and Carolyn, the defense lawyer […]
Below Deck Down Under Recap, Season 2 Episode 6: ‘All Wrong’
[ad_1] Is Laura the worst stewardess to ever appear on the Below Deck franchise? I know Lara (Mediterranean), Madga (Down Under), Lexi (Med), and Ashley (Sailing Yacht) were awful, but I feel like Laura has reached another level at this point. From her constant undermining of Aesha to her disgusting behavior toward an uninterested Adam, […]
Below Deck Down Under Recap, Season 2 Episode 7
[ad_1] Photo: Bravo/Mark Rogers/Bravo Oof, this episode is heavy and upsetting, to say the least. An overwhelming amount of crew-related situations occur, and it’s extremely bone-chilling to witness two instances of attempted sexual assault happen in a matter of minutes. I’m sort of at a loss for words, but nevertheless, I persist. Let’s get into […]
‘Only Murders in the Building’ Recap, Season 3, Episode 1
[ad_1] Photo: Patrick Harbron/Hulu/ HULU Meryl Streep has earned endless acclaim and awards for her ability to completely disappear into any character imaginable, from Margaret Thatcher to Ricki Rendazzo.
