The body count just keeps rising on The Cleaning Lady Season 2, but the latest death was justified.  With an “eat or be eaten” mentality permeating the jail system, Arman didn’t have much of a choice when he was forced to square up with Hayak in the showers. Arman has survived great odds simply by

I’m really enjoying this season of Big Sky–I might even go out on a limb (or a deadly cliff?) and say it’s my favorite one yet.  However, that doesn’t mean it’s without flaws. Season 3 is so good, it’s almost too good. And yes, that’s a flaw because there’s too much going on. Every single

Walker fans—throw your cowboy hats high into the air because this right here is the show you’ve been waiting for! Walker Independence has all the makings of an action-packed Western that the Walker reboot always aspired to be but never could accomplish in a modern-day setting.  The prequel, set in the 1800s, focuses on the

It was dark and gloomy without weekly new episodes of Ghosts, but the season 2 premiere made sure to remedy all of that and make up for lost time.  Though many months have passed since the Ghosts Season 1 season finale in our world, no time passed on the series, which picked up with the first

Alaska Daily is an important show, not just because it highlights and brings attention to the murders of indigenous women that are often swept under the rug or looked the other way, but because it’s a show that wants to break through the noise of our everyday. It proved as much with the storyline centered

Jesse Lee Soffer, who brilliantly brought detective Jay Halstead to life for 10 seasons on Chicago PD, was written out of the series on Chicago PD Season 10 Episode 3, which aired on Wednesday, Oct. 5. You can read the review here! The episode titled “Good Man” marked his last appearance in the crime drama.

The Chicago Med Season 8 premiere didn’t skip a beat, picking up right in the thick of the fire at Halstead’s apartment complex. While everyone managed to get out safely, with a little help from the Chicago Fire department, the aftermath of the incident played a huge role in the episode as everyone involved was somehow

La Brea is one of those shows that I didn’t think would get a second season renewal, but I’m so glad that it did.  With several timelines, there’s so much to explore, though, it seems we might not be sticking around in the present much this season as most of the characters, aside from Riley

This season of The Resident isn’t shying away from the dark realities our society. Last week, the episode lifted the curtain on the effects of gun violence, while The Resident Season 6 Episode 4 touched on the hard truths surrounding addiction and the people we live.  Ian, Cade’s father, was going through severe withdrawal while

The longstanding feud between the Walkers and the Davidsons has finally been put to rest.  Or, should I say, the feud went up in flames? On Walker Season 2 Episode 20, Cordell and Geri teamed up to break Gayle so that she would finally tell the truth.  And honestly, nothing she said was that shocking.

Alaska Daily has the makings of ABC’s newest hit drama. The series has a lot going for it—two-time Academy Award winner Hilary Swank, beautiful scenery, and diverse characters seeking out the stories that matter to local journalism.  But most importantly, it’s tackling the murders of indigenous women that happen all too often and are swept

The 74th Emmy Awards graced us with their presence on Monday, Sept. 12. And they did not disappoint. Broadcasting and streaming live from Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, TV’s finest delivered a night full of incredible and promising moments, including so many inspiring wins and acceptance speeches.  Here’s a list of winners from the evening! Congrats to

Chicago Med brought the heat for the season 7 finale!  The final few moments of the episode were life-changing for a handful of characters.  Having Halstead testify in the VASCOM trial was likely saved for next season, but it’s unclear if he’ll even survive in order to make it to court. Okay fine, who am

That was a hard one. It’s hard to imagine a world in which Jay Halstead isn’t part of Intelligence, but if it has to be this way, well, I’m glad he went out the way he did. It’s never easy to do the right thing, and Chicago PD Season 10 Episode 3 honed in on

It’s time to solve a cold case in Alaska! While promoting her new series Alaska Daily on Good Morning America, Hilary Swank, announced she is pregnant with twins! The actress will be tapping into the role of an investigative journalist — one of the best, according to Stanley (Scandal’s Jeff Perry), who comes to her house to offer

Can I just say how grateful I am that there was a season finale that dished out happy endings all around? The Resident Season 5 Episode 23 delivered its fair share of heartbreaking moments, but Chastain’s finest came out relatively unscathed at the end of it all.  And some of those distressing moments in the

Intelligence is back in action, but Anna’s death has rocked their leader, Hank Voight. Chicago PD Season 10 kicked off about two weeks after the team’s takedown of Los Temidos, but Voight was struggling to make sense of it all. His grief manifested in action as he went rogue to patrol the streets of Little

School is back in session.  As our favorite teachers return to Abbott Public School for development day ahead of the students’ first day of school, chaos ensues, particularly for Janine.  Since her breakup with Tariq, she’s been trying to keep it together and pretend like nothing is wrong, but the truth is, everything is wrong. 

Wow, that was an emotionally heartbreaking conclusion to a multi-episode arc on Chicago PD.  Anna gave it her all to bring down Escano and Los Temidos, but it wasn’t without casualties.  On the Chicago PD Season 9 finale, Anna got too muddled in the case and lost her way. And admittedly, Voight also lost control

The Big Sky season 2 finale was — and I hate to say this — uneventful.  There were some high moments, but overall, it was a bit of an anticlimactic outcome to a seriously twisted and dark season.  Why is that? Most of the major storylines were wrapped up, but it was too neat for the
