Tonight’s second season premiere of Stitchers (Freeform, Tuesdays, 10/9C)2.0, picks up exactly where the first season finale left off – with Kristen just out of the stitch in the (temporarily) dead Cameron’s mind – and begging him to revive. From there, it gets weird (even for Stitchers).

Co-showrunners Jim Kouf and David Greenwalt turn up the heat in Grimm’s (NBC, Fridays, 10/9C) 100th episode, Into The Schwarzwald. The past and the present converge to show a few intriguing possibilities.
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 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 […]
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 […]
Black Sails – There Are Storms Coming!
While season one of Black Sails (Starz, Saturdays, 9/8C) introduced the characters, the very ahead-of-its-time pirate government and economic system and Captain Flint’s goal of true independence for Nassau, season two found Flint and his crew looking to make the biggest score in history and, in so doing, produce the financial support to make his […]
Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments Is Disposable Fun. Michelle’s Review
A few years ago Sony Pictures tried to give Cassandra Clare’s popular The Mortal Instruments book series the blockbuster treatment. They put a lot of money into it and planned on turning the film into another big franchise. It got panned by the critics and audience, I think I was probably the only one who […]
