‘The Irrational’ 1×09 Review: “Cheating Life”

Last week’s episode was so emotional and personal, it was almost a relief when The Irrational 1×09 “Cheating Life” had the kind of ridiculous shenanigans that could only happen on television. By the way, that isn’t an insult to the…

‘Quantum Leap’ 2×10 Review: “The Family Treasure”

Quantum Leap 2×10 “The Family Treasure” is a little about the bond between family, a little about the risks we’re willing to take for the ones we love (and the consequences we therefore bear), a lot about pretending to be…

Sophia Reid-Gantzert Discusses Building Her ‘Death And Other Details’ Character

Interview: Virginia Kull Discusses Parenthood and Romance In ‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians’

Percy Jackson and the Olympians is one of the best adaptations of a beloved novel that we’ve seen in years. It’s one of those rare shows, where every episode is somehow better than the last. The series focuses on Percy’s…

Interview: Violett Beane Discusses Her Character’s Humanity in ‘Death And Other Details’

I have to admit that Hulu’s Death and Other Details quickly became my newest guilty pleasure series this year. It’s a closed door murder mystery with characters that are as compelling as they are suspicious. Everyone has secrets, and pretty…

Interview: Angela Zhou Discusses ‘Death and Other Details’

I’m a huge fan of the new Hulu series Death and Other Details already. So I was obviously thrilled to be given the chance to sit down with Angela Zhou (“Teddy”) to discuss what drew her to the role and what…

‘Death and Other Details’ Series Review: “Pay Attention. Details Matter.”

Television viewers know there are two types of TV shows: Those you put on as “background noise” and watch while doing other things, and those you watch. Hulu’s new series, Death and Other Details falls into the latter category. “Pay…
