After this week’s episode, I doubt whether there was a dry eye (or breast) in the house. The show’s continued strength in portraying the incredibly strong bonds that exist between a mother and her child were played out in spectacular fashion. From an opening shot of the beautiful newborn bathed in sunlight to the union […]
In the June 26 Humans episode, Synths confirmed their humanity. Most notably, Niska was able to override commands and protect herself, Max recognized that Agnes chose her words carefully to mask that she was indeed a threat to the Commission members, and Karen confirmed her Mother Bear status by putting Sam’s safety ahead of her […]
We have wayward Orange Eyes! I knew it!! No way could the new Synths be 100% safe! Bet you knew it, too. For some reason I can’t articulate, it seemed perfect that it was Niska who had the first interaction with what I am imagining is a large group behind that one rogue Synth while out […]
Fellow Sci-Fi fans, Stan’s the man! Orange-Eye Stanley is my new Humans Synth super hero. If you haven’t, you must watch Humans Season 3 Episode 2 and meet this wonderful new character charmingly “brought to life” by Dino Fetscher. Stanley and Neil – Laura’s New Men? Yes, Stanley’s foisted upon dolly-ally Laura (Katherine Parkinson) who only accepts […]
Yeah, if you watched the Humans Season 3 premiere, you know I so went for the obvious headline. If you didn’t… You. Must. Watch. Superb Storytelling Director Jill Robertson, writers Jonathan Brackley and Sam Vincent, and the perfectly cast actors gave us an exciting season premiere that ranks in my Top 5 TV premieres of all time. There […]
Shogun World has been teased and hyped for over a year now – and “Akane No Mai” finally throws us into that world. Was it worth the wait and all that hype? Absolutely! After a fairly complicated story-line last week, “Akane No Mai” takes things back to the basics a bit, and throws in a lot of awesome […]
Holy crap. Excuse the language, but Westworld “Reunion” made for one hell of episode this week! “Reunion” is an episode that tries to fill in some of the blanks from the Westworld that we know and love in Season 1, to the Westworld of now, and exactly where it all started. Of course, being Westworld – you can […]
Everything considered, The Walking Dead “Still Gotta Mean Something” episode was a good one. While it certainly didn’t reach the same level IMHO as last week’s, it built to ‘good’ as the episode progressed. Sticks and guns and helicopters, oh, my! One reason I saw it as only ‘good’ is that it had me off […]
The Magicians offers up a unique and moving hour of television with “Be The Penny” – a delightful Penny centric episode in which Arjun Gupta shines. Not only do we get to see the narrative play out from Penny’s viewpoint, we learn more about some un-seen residents of Brakebills and the Quest gets even grander […]
That is the one problem with having something as awesome as magic in your life, when it disappears it hits and it hits hard. So far this season The Magicians has done an excellent job showing just how terrible life without magic can be. Sure it can do great and powerful, big things — but when you’re […]
