Previewing American Classic

Previewing Earth Abides
[Warning: General spoilers ahead.] Pilot episodes are a tricky thing, especially in the world of single-episode viewing amid a sea of full-season, same-day drops, although it seems that more shows are going back to that old-school, tease-it-out model.

Two Takes: Graceland “Hand of Glory”
Whenever a bad guy opens up and reveals something human about himself that makes you hate him a little less, odds are he’s about to meet his maker. And Graceland‘s “Hand Of Glory” was no exception. Toros kicked the bucket, but even with one less member of the Sarkissian clan...

Two Takes: Graceland “Bon Voyage”
Talk about an intense, gut-wrenching episode. Graceland may have the lighthearted fun thing down to a T, but when it comes to emotions, they know how to deliver ten-fold. And “Bon Voyage” was one of those episodes. We saw a painful intervention, a heartbreaking breakdown and a loss that I’m sure...

Hulu’s Paradise S1 Weaves Past and Present to Unravel a Murder
