‘Da Vinci’s Demons’ Season 1, Episode 7 Review – Trial By Water
June 1, 2013 By Leave a Comment
Leonardo da Vinci has not been seen in Florence for two entire episodes now and Da Vinci’s Demons is suddenly an adventure series because of it. Sure, it’s still a deeply flawed adventure series, but at least things are happening beyond da Vinci’s involvement with the Medicis and it feels like the story is progressing (albeit at a very deliberate pace) toward the storyline the … [Read more...]
‘Mad Men’ Season 6, Episode 9 Review – Table For One
May 28, 2013 By Leave a Comment
Examining the sides of a character’s identity is nothing new to Mad Men, and certainly, when an episode is titled ‘The Better Half,’ all sort of situations seem to beg for attention.

‘Hannibal’ Season 1, Episode 7 Review – Palate Cleanser
May 10, 2013 By Leave a Comment
As an episode title, ‘Sorbet’ may be the best that Hannibal has offered so far, in terms of the series’ clever marriage of its own gruesome premise and the refined, decadent tastes of the culinary world. Additionally, considering its use as a palate cleanser between courses, sorbet also sets the tempo for the episode, working almost as a one-off digression into Hannibal’s … [Read more...]

‘Psych’ Season 7, Episode 11: Work Snafu
May 9, 2013 By Leave a Comment
One of the most enjoyable aspects of Psych is that it is a show that by and large doesn’t take itself seriously.

Enter, “Office Space” an example of just how absurdly entertaining the show can … [Read more...]
