So far, I’m pretty disappointed in this season of The 100 and considering the show is about to take a month long break after next week’s episode they have a lot of ground (pun intended) to make up. What this season is missing is a sense of urgency and coherence. Season 1 and 2 were […]

The 100 Ep 306 – Bitter Harvest Review/Recap
The name for this week’s episode of The 100, Bitter Harvest, couldn’t be more apt. I was pissed at the end of last week’s episode. Once again The Arkers get away with being arrogant asses and instead of letting Lexa and the Grounders get their Justice, naive, deluded Clarke convinces Lexa to “turn the other […]
The 100 EP305 – Hakeldama Recap and Review
The 100 season 3 has been a weird mix of awesomeness and stupidity in its first 4 episodes. After the Arkadians slaughtered 300 of Lexa’s peacekeepers and Lexa finally getting her revenge on the Ice Queen last week we start this week with the aftermath.
The Magicians Goes Nuts!
Literally, this week’s episode of The Magicians (Syfy, Mondays, 9/8C) finds Quentin back in a very familiar – yet strangely different – environment: the hospital we saw in the premiere. Only, of course, it’s not quite the same… is it?
The Magicians: There are Consequences to Advanced Spellcasting!
Now that all that nasty exposition and character introduction has been done, The Magicians (Syfy, Mondays, 9/8C) moves forward with some major developments – most of which are, to say the least, troublesome. Dean Fogg (Rick Worthy) is back – with glass eyes, and experimenting with styles of dark glasses (one pair calls to mind […]
Grimm: It’s the Eve of Destruction!
Grimm (NBC, Fridays, 9/8C) returns tonight with a revelation: Nick wasn’t seeing things in the fall finale – Juliette is alive! Sort of… As Nick tries to sort out his feelings – about Juliette’s return, about Adalind – the Black Claw goes on the offensive in an even bigger way and no one is safe.
You, Me and the Apocalypse: The Curious Events Leading To Slough!
You, Me and The Apocalypse (NBC, Thursdays, 8/7C) is a ten-episode dramedy that follows an incredibly disparate group of people through the last thirty-four days before a giant comet strikes the planet, turning humanity into the latest version of the dinosaurs (i.e.: extinct). The series – a US/British co-production – melds both countries senses of […]
The Expanse: All Paths Lead to Eros Station!
The Expanse (Syfy, Tuesdays, 10/9C) has been carefully weaving together a series of plotlines involving political leaders on Earth, the survivors of an ice mining ship called the Canterbury and a cop who’d been given the task of finding the heir to an Earther billionaire who’d gone missing. Along the way, the events lurking behind […]
The Magicians – Like Watching Paint Dry. Michelle’s Review!
SyFy Channel has really stepped up their game lately with The Expanse and Children’s End. Now they are taking a run at building a new Harry Potter like fantasy world with their new series The Magician about a college student who discovers that he has magical powers.
Lucifer: The Son of Morning – The Lord of Hell – Is Officially Retired!
FOX’s Lucifer (Mondays, 9/8C) is a silky smooth hour of supernatural sleuthing and amoral indifference featuring the Lord of Hell – Lucifer Morningstar (Tom Ellis) himself – who has tired of the boring responsibilities of Hell and quit to live up among the most unpredictable of God’s creations: humanity. So, naturally, he runs an upscale […]
The Magicians: Almost Magical!
Syfy’s The Magicians (Mondays, 9/8C) is adapted from the bestselling trilogy by Lev Grossman. It follows Quentin Coldwater and his best friend Julia as they discover that magic exists and while one is accepted into a hidden magic school and the other is not. Essentially, series creators Sera Gamble and John McNamara are approaching the […]
