Salem, yet again, does a great job of prolonging the purpose of this season’s evil, The Devil, and what his plans are. The people in Salem are also doing their part to work against The Devil’s will, but perhaps their plans may work at cross purposes. In this week’s episode, “The Reckoning”, The Devil, or John Sibley (Oliver Bell), is …

Conviction hit hard this week and there’s no good way to talk about the case, or the outcome. To be sure, the CIU tackles a case of an African-American woman who shot a Caucasian cop, especially after more racial tensions have arise in NYC. Dead cops, angry protests, discussions of what lives matter. It’s on the nose for the national …

Timeless went back to Watergate and possibly gave the audience some questions about the mysterious Rittenhouse. Lucy (Abigail Spenser), Wyatt (Matt Lanter) and Rufus (Malcolm Barnett) are forced to go back to 1972 when Nixon ordered the Watergate break-in, but rather than just looking into Watergate, the team learns that Nixon is worrying about Rittenhouse (it’s part of what is …

Poldark exploded this week with two big choices for two leads that will alter the relationships between everyone. Elizabeth Elizabeth (Heida Reed) has spent so much time being lonely after Francis’ death, and after Ross had stopped paying at much attention to her needs in running the house, she turned to George Warleggan (Jack Farthing). Finally George, still wanting to …

Notorious is past the death of Sarah Keaton, but this week’s “case” puts a strain between Julia (Piper Perabo) and Jake (Daniel Sanjata), as LHN chooses to follow a story over honoring an agreement between Julie, Jake and Jake’s client. What To Do? When a former news anchor’s daughter is accused of murder, Julia and Louise (Kate Jennings Grant) have …

Salem is well on its way to setting up how to kill the Devil, and so far, the process looks to be long and labored. In the season’s second episode – The Heart Is a Devil – follows all the major players as they start on their own games to meet their own best end, and it doesn’t look as …

Conviction teased us yet again with a slightly different case this week. Actually, the case is much the same: poor man convicted of murder of wealthy woman who had taken him in and given opportunities. Only the twist at the end sets this one apart: in fact, the client, Will Jarrett (Grayson DeJesus), also worked with the victim’s son to …

Poldark chose this week to complicate three of the biggest issues so far on this season: Ross’ (Aidan Turner) desire for money via smuggling, Dr. Enys’s (Luke Norris) love for Caroline Penvenen (Gabriella Wilde) and what is to become of Elizabeth (Heida Reed) and George Warleggan (Jack Farthing). As audiences should expect, nothing seems to be easy in these three …

Pitch chooses the episode just after the end of the World Series to tackle the stress of sports (it’s amusing in the sense that the entire Cubs franchise just got a chance to de-stress after 108 years), and for Ginny (Kylie Bunbury), the episode focuses on her feelings about a Nike endorsement and a party for her after a horrible …

Salem returned tonight with a bang (and some blood) along with a bevvy of characters that appeared dead in last season’s finale as dead who really aren’t (and when won’t it be good for Monty Python?). At the end of the hour, the new stage is set and the new battle over Salem has been drawn. The New King John …
