It’s been a minute since this mediocre procedural, serial killing show was on the air, but now Prodigal Son is back and I watched the second season premiere with some trepidation. During the first season run I know I made my feelings clear about how I felt let down by all the potential this show had to offer. No, at this point I’m not expecting it to be the next Hannibal, but just give me something!

Cobra Kai Season 3
Fair warning here, there will be spoilers for the latest season of Cobra Kai that was just released on January 1st. I couldn’t watch this fast enough, and just like with the first season, I binged this over the course of two days. That’s a big deal! My viewing habits don’t usually involve binging the same show for more than two episodes, so that means Cobra Kai is the real deal!
Read moreA Teacher Miniseries Review
FX on Hulu’s A Teacher, is a drama adapted from a movie of the same name, but starring a few more recognizable names and the ability to flesh the story out a bit more. I think this would have to be every filmmakers dream. Getting to tell a story that you’re passionate about in two different channels has to feel good. There were also enough years separating the two that creator, Hannah Fidell, could take the time to figure out parts she wanted to explore more deeply, or add more fine details to certain scenes.
Read moreThe Queen’s Gambit Miniseries Review
Since The Queen’s Gambit came out a couple months ago, I have yet to see a bad or even somewhat disappointed review for it. Now I understand why! This was one of the strongest series I’ve ever watched and it was something I know next to nothing about: chess! This, coupled with Ted Lasso, proves that if a show is written and acted really well, then it doesn’t matter how seemingly boring your subject matter is. If you would have told me at the start of the year that the best fictionalized television I would watch was about soccer and chess I would have laughed in your face. They have proven me wrong.
Read moreThe Undoing Miniseries Review
I’ve only recently been able to enjoy what HBO Max has to offer, but so far it has not been disappointing! Yes, I missed the initial run of this superstar miniseries, The Undoing, when it first premiered on HBO, but I’m really not that far off the rest of the world so kudos to me. The six episodes had me guessing, and that made for a very entertaining ride.
Read moreCobra Kai Season 2 Review
I stretched the second season of Cobra Kai out a little bit compared to the first, but it was no less exciting or awesome! The second season essentially picks up right were the first season left off, with Kresse showing up at Johnny’s Cobra Kai dojo and Sam joining Miyagi-Do. Where this season ends is really crazy, so I’m glad I don’t have much of a wait for the third season to premiere on Netflix!
Read moreBig Sky – Winter Finale Review
Only five episodes in and we’ve already reached rookie show, Big Sky‘s winter finale. That’s right, we’ve got to wait a whole agonizing month (my sister’s words, not mine) to figure out what the heck is going to come after that insane cliffhanger! More on that in just a bit.
Read moreBig Sky – Episodes 3 & 4 Recap
Alright, I clearly suck at watching this show in a timely manner, but I promise I’ll do better! Even though there is only one more episode of Big Sky set to air before its “winter break,” I still promise to have it reviewed on Wednesday! I swear it!
Read moreBlack Narcissus Miniseries Review
A couple of weeks ago, FX premiered an excellent British drama called Black Narcissus, and I was hooked from the start. I was actually quite sad that it was only three parts. In an interesting move on FX’s part, all three episodes aired back to back. I didn’t watch these live, so it had no impact on me, but I still thought it was an interesting move.
Read moreFargo Season 4, Episode 10
It’s the penultimate episode of this fourth installment of Fargo, and I’m really excited to see how it all plays out. After a cool and creative deviation last week, this week reverts back to the storylines we’re used to and plays out a string of events so delicious I might as well have been salivating while watching the episode.
