‘Arrow’ 7×01 Review: "Inmate 4587" aka HOLY S**T

‘Supergirl’ 4×01 Review: “The American Alien”
Supergirl’s season 4 premiere was good. But it wasn’t great. It wasn’t The Flash, which jumped out with a thrilling premiere that seemed to get back to the heart of the show: family. Supergirl’s season premiere wasn’t disappointing. It just…
‘Black Lightning’ 2×01 Review: “The Book of Consequences: Chapter One: Rise of the Green Light Babies”

‘Murphy Brown’ 11×03: ‘#MurphyToo’

‘New Amsterdam’ 1×02 Review: Rituals
I can’t even start this review without gushing over Ryan Eggold! He is so good as Dr. Max Goodwin, and gives me real Doug Ross (George Clooney on ER) vibes. I’ll admit to being bitter about Eggold’s demise on The…
Margot Bingham Joins The Cast Of ‘New Amsterdam’
You know that we’re loving New Amsterdam. It’s always so hard to choose what to watch, because with so many options – it feels a little all over the place. But New Amsterdam is a good watch. Now, if you…
Why #Densi Might be the Best OTP on TV

‘The Hate U Give’ Interview: Regina King
I am always humbled that we are invited to movie sets, but no set has ever affected me the way that the visit to the set of The Hate U Give did. Traveling to Atlanta last year, I took in every…
‘I Feel Bad’ 1×01/1×02 Review: I Held In My Farts For Nothing
I Feel Bad‘s pilot episode “Pilot” feels real good. The freshman show’s second episode, “I Get Sick of Being Needed” gets better. I Feel Bad‘s protagonist Emet, played sleekly and energetically by Sarayu Blue, is a South Asian video game…
‘Wynonna Earp’ 3×10 Review: The Other Woman
