The thing that is so frustrating about Powerless is that when I watch it I’m reminded of the potential it had with its original pilot. The original direction and tone of the show presented Powerless as this comedy with substance.…

The Blacklist: Redemption 1×01 Review: ‘Leland Bray’
The Blacklist spin-off titled “The Blacklist: Redemption” kicked off last night with it’s premiere episode, “Leland Bray”. It started out with Tom meeting a stranger in the park who turned out to be his father who wasn’t actually dead. Apparently he…
The Blacklist 4×15 Review: ‘The Apothecary’
I’m going to try and make this review as coherent as possible, because I’m still reeling from that winter finale. We knew “The Apothecary” was going to be extremely painful because Red has been poisoned and was slowly dying, but…
Chicago P.D. 4×15 Review: ‘Favor, Affection, Malice or Ill-Will’
When it comes to violence and murder, it’s very easy for good people to find themselves on the wrong side of the law. That’s where we found one father in Chicago P.D.’s latest hour as he solicited a murder of…
Timeless 1×16 Review: This is Not Goodbye
And not just because I refuse (though I refuse, I refuse, I refuse), but because it’s not fair. And okay, sometimes life is not fair. Sometimes television is not fair. But, in this day and age, especially with what’s going…
The Blacklist 4×14 Review: ‘The Architect’
So I’m just going to come out and say it, last night’s The Blacklist, titled “The Architect”, was awesome. The episode returned to the style of season one and two, and hardly focused on any relationship drama whatsoever. Every character…
Powerless 1×03 Review: “Sinking Day”
Here we go again. What an ominous way to start a review, isn’t it? But that’s pretty much how I felt as I sat down to watch the third episode of the show’s season – kind of like: okay, let’s…
‘Chicago P.D.’ 4×14 Review: “Seven Indictments”
The thing that we all know about Chicago P.D. is that just we think we know what’s happening the script is turned on us. We start to see the pieces fall into place as a web of lies is unveiled…
The Blacklist 4×13 Review: ‘Isabella Stone’
“Isabella Stone” promised to be an action packed episode. and it did not disappoint. I was worried that Isabella Stone would just be a throw away villain easily defeated by Red, but she actually lived up to the hype. If…
‘Chicago P.D.’ 4×13 Review: “I Remember Her Now”
One thing that I’ve learned watching Chicago P.D. is that its fresh storytelling leaves no room for easy answers. Every episode has its own unique case and feel that always feels more intense than your typical procedural. It’s the Chicago…
Timeless 1×14 Review: We’re Family Now, Just Accept It
It’s silly, but as I started writing this review, it struck me that there’s just two more episodes left of Timeless, two more episodes of Rufus’ wit, of Wyatt’s protectiveness, of Lucy’s resourcefulness, of the family that they’ve managed to…
Lyatt: 13 Moments That Made Us Ship It
It’s Valentine’s Day. Or, it will be soon. And we all want a little romance – in our lives, and in our TV screens. Which is why this week’s we’re counting down on those moments that make our hearts go pitter-patter,…
The Blacklist 4×12 Review: ‘Natalie Luca’
Last night’s episode ‘Natalie Luca’ was chalk full of foreshadowing. Red gave a whole speech about how he feels that death is coming for him soon, something hovering around him that he can’t pinpoint. Tom completed the task that Red…
Powerless 1×01 Review: Wayne or Lose
I don’t want to compare, I really don’t, but this is my second time watching the pilot of Powerless, and I can’t help but …well, compare. The episode went through extensive re-shoots, and when I say extensive I mean there’s…
‘Timeless’ 1×12 Review: For You, A Thousand Times Over
This phrase from “The Kite Runner,” by Khaled Hosseini kept playing in my mind over and over again as I watched the episode. It’s not a romantic phrase, or at least, it’s not used in that context in the book…
10 Reasons We Love Timeless
We feel in love with Timeless from the beginning – before that, even, as we were lucky enough to get an early glimpse at what was to become one of our new obsessions. But even then, we couldn’t have predicted…
The Blacklist 4×11 Review: ‘The Harem’
Last night’s episode, “The Harem” was underwhelming to say the least. The group of female thieves were completely irrelevant, and it wasn’t even really a compelling case episode. There were a couple good exchanges of dialogue between characters, but almost…
‘Chicago P.D.’ 4×12 Review: “Sanctuary”
If there’s one thing you can expect from Chicago P.D. it’s that its storylines are much more than they appear to be. When you think you’ve got it all figured out, you soon learn that you weren’t even close. The…
Timeless 1×11 Review: ‘The World’s Columbian Exposition’
What we wouldn’t have given a month ago to have access to the Time Ship in order to travel forward a month and get our beloved Timeless back. There’s been a serious piece of my heart missing with Timeless on…
