Why do bad things happen to good characters? This is a question I kept asking myself during tonight’s phenomenal Vikings episode. (Spoilers ahead). There were a lot of good things happening in the episode.  Lagertha and Bjorn’s scenes together continued to be strong. It’s good to know he’ll have her back against her awful husband, […]

 

Hannibal remains one of the most unique, brilliant, and under-appreciated network shows currently airing. Three episodes in, and the second season is proving to be just as addictive as the first.   The show has done a good job continuing the format that made it successful the first season, while upping the stakes.

Crazy Lizzie killed Mika so Carol shot her in the head. There. No burying the lead, no pontificating about the small details that highlight the degradation of society, no sarcastic nicknames.

Oh Patti LuPone, you ruin everything. This week on Girls, Hannah spirals out of control when she realizes she just might be the Mr. LuPone in her relationship.

Beth and Daryl have kept trekking through the woods in search of shelter to replace the perfectly good house they burned down. This is the first time in ages that People’s Champion Daryl Dixon […]

 

Vikings just keeps getting better and better. The second season started out strong, and so far, hasn’t slipped up. There was a lot going on this week (including several new cast members) and pretty much all of it was good. Let’s start with Athelstan. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Athelstan’s story […]

 

This episode of Girls made me really uncomfortable, like season one levels of discomfort. I’m not saying it was bad, necessarily, but it was so hard to watch and there really wasn’t a single moment in there to lighten the mood and provide me with some relief. Yes, my new favorite guy, folk guy (I […]
