TV Goodness Guide to Luke Macfarlane Christmas Movies
There’s an achingly lovely, earnest moment (or four) in Bros, the theatrical romcom recently released to VOD, where Luke Macfarlane’s character, Aaron, admits that he hates his life and has a secret dream to do something else. It’s a delightfully sweet, vulnerable moment for an until-then, hard-shell titular bro, but...
Connie Giordano Talks Mare of Easttown
Mare of Easttown wraps this Sunday, with one mystery solved and another still lingering. One piece of that second puzzle–the murder of Erin McMenamin–lies with Brianna Rasso, who laid a beating on Erin the night she died. The current girlfriend of Erin’s baby daddy, Dylan, she’s also now come forward...

Legion Preview
[Warning: General spoilers ahead.] FX’s Legion rolls out Wednesday night, adapted by Noah Hawley (Fargo and the underrated The Unusuals, which I loved) from the Marvel Comics by Chris Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz, and it’s definitely a unique animal.
Fargo Season 2 Preview [+ Q&A with Composer Jeff Russo]
Warning: Spoilers Ahead What do we know about Season 2? Not much, other than Noah Hawley is taking two great characters from Season 1 — Lou and Molly Solverson — and delving into their backstory. The year is 1979 and we’ll learn more about Lou as a young cop and...

Finale Watch: Hawaii Five-0 “Ooia’i’o (Trust)”
I know I dragged on getting this posted, y’all. Apologies. And yet, I have to start with a gripe. We sat through 2/3 of the season listening to Danny pine for/whine about his ex-wife and then all of a sudden he’s reunited with her, and the finale confirmed that not only were...
Hawaii Five-0 “Ke Kinohi (The Beginning)”
It was family night this week on Hawaii Five-0as the Yakuza seriously misjudge the lengths McGarrett will go to to avenge his mother and protect his sister. Game on, y’all. We begin at Casa McGarrett with a sleeping McGarrett startled awake by someone downstairs. He draws on a masked burglar...
Hawaii Five-0: “Nalowale (Forgotten/Missing)”
Another dark outing this week and they’re starting to plant seeds for who the McGarretts are beyond the surface. The episode opens with kids on a submarine tour spotting the body of a young blonde woman in the water. The Coast Guard is called and the next thing we see...
Hawaii Five-0 “Malama Ka Aina (Respect the Land)”
Minor nit out of the way up front—if you have Jean Smart in your cast, USE HER. She was in the cast list for this episode, but then not in the credits or the actual episode when it aired. If you’re going to trim for time, trim somewhere else, okay?...
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....
Tim Rozon Looks Back on SurrealEstate
[Warning: All the spoilers ahead.] To close out our SurrealEstate coverage (for now), I chatted with Tim Rozon about Season 3 and getting the band back together. For the third season, production moved from Newfoundland to Ottawa, and Rozon was ready to dive back in. “We were in a...
George R. Olson Unpacks SurrealEstate Season 3
[Warning: ALL the spoilers ahead.] In case you missed the news last week, SurrealEstate has concluded with its third season, which aired last summer. On Friday, I spoke with series creator George R. Olson and series star Tim Rozon about saying goodbye to the show. You can read that piece...
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...
Scott McCord Talks About Victor’s Expanding World in From Season 3
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...

WARNING: Spoilers for Survivor’s Remorse “Closure” The latest episode of Starz’s Survivor’s Remorse featured conversations that showed characters really digging deep into their thoughts, emotions and motivations.
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...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from Supergirl “Worlds Finest”
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...
