Philip Stands His Ground in Eyewitness “Buffalo ’07”
The final moments of “Buffalo ’07,” the pilot episode of USA’s Eyewitness, are where the series turned for me. Like I said in my preview, the romance at the center was a complete unknown going in, but then as it unfolded in the course of the first hour, I held...
Wynonna Earp Moment of Goodness: A Major Reveal in “She Wouldn’t Be Gone”
[Warning: Do not read until you’ve seen tonight’s episode] I’m a pretty smug TV viewer who usually sees X or Y plot twist from way on up the road, so I love when a show surprises me, especially when it’s with something that I not only didn’t see coming, but...
Bates Motel Says Goodbye to Norma Louise in “Norman”
“I’ll Be Home For Christmas” is a wistful holiday tune, and the key phrase as it concludes is, “if only in my dreams.” I think that’s where we’ll find most of the action going forward on Bates Motel, because they went there.
Relationships Are Complicated in Penny Dreadful “Predators Far and Near”
Vanessa Ives has sh-t luck with men. We know this. So it seems all well and good when Dr. Seward encourages her to step out of her comfort zone, which sends her off to the local museum, and she meets the lovely, awkward, and shy zoologist Dr. Sweet. You had to...
All Roads Lead to Jennifer in 12 Monkeys “Primary”
A common through line this season will be that Jennifer has a bead on every timeline, and we started to get a sense of just how overwhelming that is for her in “Primary.” We also found out that Olivia was a master manipulator, not just playing on Jennifer’s mommy and...
Norma Admits Her Truth to Romero in Bates Motel “The Vault”
Hey there. So, I’m going to barrel clumsily into this and hopefully come out the other side with a coherent point. I haven’t been wholly down with this season of Bates Motel so far, partly because by putting Norman into treatment, they’ve split his arc away from Norma’s, creating two...
Romancing the Bro in 12 Monkeys “Year of the Monkey”
One of the things that’s hard about PR/marketing is gauging the timing of the reveal. I do that in my day job, so I totally get it, but when it comes to fandom, I sort of wish there was a way to table reveals while still building interest. Case in...
Mulder and Scully Reunite for a Goodbye in The X-Files “Home Again”
[Warning: spoilers for the episode.] Moms have always been a significant presence on the The X-Files. Back in the OG days on, we got to know both Mulder’s mom, Teena, and Scully’s mom, Margaret. Teena died in 2000, and tonight, we said goodbye to Margaret (Sheila Larken), who was an important marker of both...
Moment of Goodness: Tony and Jeanne On the Plane Home, NCIS “Saviors”
Jeanne Benoit walked out of Tony DiNozzo’s life back in Season 5 after he set her free in the cruelest but necessary way. After she asked him if any of what they had was real, he simply said, “No.” She responded with an equally devastating, “I wish I’d never met...
41 Moments that Helped Make Supernatural “Baby” an Instant Classic
WARNING: We break down just about everything about this “Baby” episode so don’t read if you haven’t watched Supernatural “Baby” could have been a chore to watch. But it wasn’t. It could have fallen flat. But it didn’t. For me, this ode to the Impala worked on every level. Much...
Let’s Talk About Will Trent
[Spoilers for “The Blank Expanse of Nothing”] It’s been a minute since I’ve had a good, old-fashioned rant about a TV series, so I’m overdue. If you’ve followed me on IG the last few years (hi!), you know that I yell often and loud about my love for Will Trent....

George R. Olson and Tim Rozon Share Their Gratitude for SurrealEstate’s Run
Since SurrealEstate wrapped its third season six months ago, I’ve checked about once a week to see whether there was any news on cancelled or renewed. As long as there was no decision, there was still hope for a fourth season. This week, series creator George R. Olson let the...
Hulu’s Paradise S1 Weaves Past and Present to Unravel a Murder
One of the nice things about the symbiosis of the entertainment conglomerates is that sometimes streaming shows make their way over to linear outlets. Case in point: ABC has given Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building a primetime slot (after of course tweaking the language for FCC regs) during its...

Closing out our From Season 3 coverage (which you can find here), in the second part of my conversation with Scott McCord, we talk about Victor’s new friendship with Sara, reconnecting with Tabitha, and what might be next for Victor when Season 4 returns in 2026. As we’ve talked about...
Dennis Heaton Talks Murder in a Small Town
Murder in a Small Town wraps its first season Tuesday night on FOX in the US and Wednesday night on Global TV in Canada. For US viewers, it’s been a neat addition to the usual FOX fare to have a slower-paced, small-town murder mystery with a parade of CdnTV peeps...
Harold Perrineau Talks From Season 3
[Warning: Includes spoilers for the Season 3 finale.] How are you doing, FROMily? That finale was A LOT. Thankfully we know we’re going to get more of this story, and you have a year and change to work on your Venn diagram deciphering the OMG WTFery of it all. Last...
Scott McCord Talks From Season 3
From the jump (pun intended), I’ve been a staunch advocate of Victor (and Scott McCord, who plays him), and this season, he’s been put through it. On the heels of sending Tabitha off into the unknown and having her return with his father, he unearths the long-suppressed memory that as...
Corteon Moore Talks From Season 3
From has always been really good about delighting us with mix-and-match character pairings, and this season, we’ve seen Jade and Tabitha, Sara and Victor, Henry and Victor, and Kenny and Acosta team up. As Ellis, Corteon Moore has spent a chunk of time this season paired up with Pegah Ghafoori...

Two Takes: The Catch “The Knock-Off”
Who can you trust? If this episode of The Catch was any indication, the answer is just about nobody. Betrayal was running rampant as Felicity (Shivani Ghai) arose from the dead to seduce-con Margot, Gretchen (Maria Thayer, Gotham, The Mindy Project) played gold-hearted Alice 2.0 before swindling Ethan, Tessa jumped...

Oh, Supergirl. That ending was cold. But I can’t hate on you because the latest episode has quickly become one of my favorites.
What Lucifer Said: Favorite quotes from Supernatural “O Brother, Where Art Thou?”
Supernatural episodes are almost always funny but thanks to the dialogue and a certain man speaking said dialogue, I laughed a lot during “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” You know, when I wasn’t busy fearing for Sam’s life or wondering what in the world was going on with Dean and...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from Supernatural “Angel Heart”
Okay, that was my favorite of all the Claire episodes. In the beginning I think this arc was a bit shaky, to be honest. But I think it ended strong and that’s thanks to the chemistry between the actors as well as the strength of the writing, courtesy of Robbie...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from The Vampire Diaries “I’ll Remember”
Season 5 Episode 1: “I’ll Remember” Writer: Caroline Dries This is odd. It’s an episode of The Vampire Diaries and there’s only one favorite quote from Damon. Of course, he was only in one scene. There are a few Hallucination!Damon quotes included though. What were some of your favorite quotes...
