Bob’s Burgers Season 9, Episode 6: “Bobby Driver” We all have people in our lives that drive us nuts. We try to avoid them, but there they are—at the office, the grocery store, or our favorite restaurant. They may not even know us that well, but they always seem to know just what to do…
Doctor Who Season 11, Episode 6: “Demons of the Punjab” One of the things that makes the idea of time travel so appealing is our innate desire to learn about our ancestors. I’ve been told that I have a lot in common with my paternal grandfather, but he passed away when I was pretty young,…

Though this is a rather overt…
How to Get Away with Murder Season 5, Episode 7: “I Got Played” Annalise Keating may be the most fascinating character on television right now. I’m not sure there’s another character (or another actor) who can evoke such strong feelings of admiration, anger, frustration, and pity—all in the space of a single episode. Voila Davis…
Bob’s Burgers Season 9, Episode 5: “Live and Let Fly” Kids think they know everything. (And, yes—I know those sound like the words of a grumpy old man. But, in my defense, I’m kind of old. And I’m usually grumpy. So, I guess if the shoe fits—it’s probably orthopedic.) So it’s nice to see them…
Doctor Who Season 11, Episode 5: “The Tsuranga Conundrum” We knew from the start that this season of Doctor Who was going to be one to remember. Casting a woman to play the Doctor for the first time in the show’s history was historic, and it couldn’t have come at a better time. But huge…

How to Get Away with Murder Season 5, Episode 6: “We Can Find Him” I should have seen this one coming. The writers weren’t even subtle about it, but I got caught up in the plot and forgot the second basic rule of television and movie watching. The first rule, of course, is that, until…
When Mike Schur initially pitched The Good Place to NBC, the game-changing twist at the end of its first season was a part of the package. From the beginning, rug-pulling was a piece of this show’s DNA, a part of the trick that kept viewers on their feet. With each new twist between seasons one…
I am Vlad Dracula Tepes, and I have had enough. Last summer, Netflix dropped a four-episode adaptation of Konami’s classic Castlevania video game series seemingly out of the blue.
