If there were any doubts about whether or not Constantine is good, this is the episode to finally alleviate those concerns. This week takes a tight script and interesting plot and marries it together with just the right level of tension and scares to create a gripping tale. It’s just a pity that they didn’t show it a month earlier…

Have You Seen...? - The Hour

11/28/2014

by Helen Langdon

The annals of TV history abound with shows that were cancelled before their time, when the stories the series had to tell had yet to run out, leaving loyal viewers without a sense of closure. However, it’s rare that those shows are themselves about TV series trying not to get cancelled. Which is why it’s so heartbreaking that The Hour was cancelled.

Wizards Vs Aliens "Twilight Falls" Review (Spoilers!)

11/27/2014

by Helen Langdon

The first season of Wizards vs Aliens had six stories (12 episodes). The second went a bit bigger, with seven stories (14 episodes). This third season kept it short and tight, with just five stories and ten episodes. But the length wasn’t all that changed. While the previous two seasons were jointly overseen by co-creators Russell T Davies and Phil Ford, Ford was flying solo on season three. This meant a move away from monster-of-the-week style adventures, and towards a more coherent season-long narrative, as the Lady Lyzera plotted to ransack the Neverside and Tom battled to come to terms with his magic again.

Earlier this month saw the 200th episode of Supernatural, an impressive milestone that few shows manage to reach, especially high concept genre shows. Ten seasons and 200 episodes means we’ve seen an awful lot happen to the show’s stars, brothers Sam and Dean Winchester (emphasis on the ‘awful’) but somehow the show is continuing to bring in new fans and new mythology to keep the show alive.

Gotham "LoveCraft" Review

11/26/2014

by Cookie N Screen

Apathy. It’s a curse that comes from either fear, laziness or repetitiveness. Guess which one Gotham suffers from? At a recent “family” outing, my sister’s fiancé and I were generally chit chatting about the television show which dwindled into an ongoing joke. After all, did you know that Gotham is a corrupt city where Jim Gordon is the only cop who walks the line for justice? Did you get from this television show that Bruce Wayne is deeply wounded by his parent’s deaths and wishes to find their kill (though that is largely a point of Bat- Canon). And did you know that there is a turf war in Gotham? That Barbara Gordon has doubts and worries about her husband? Yeah, it’s hammered into us consistently that it’s tiring.

Star Wars Rebels "Gathering Forces" Review (Spoilers!)

11/26/2014

by Graham Osborne

This week’s episode follows on almost directly from last week’s cliffhanger, the crew of the Ghost are being chased by The Inquisitor and a squad of TIE-Fighters who are determined to reclaim the Imperial secrets stored inside the head of a fugitive Rodian.

Ripper Street "Ashes and Diamonds" Review (Spoilers!)

“Heavy is the head that wears the crown” says Captain Jackson in this episode, focused squarely on Inspector Drake as he takes control of Whitechapel in the most awful circumstances following last week’s shocking conclusion. This Reid-less episode has a middling, forgettable “crime of the week”, but the importance of the episode is not on that, but rather the intersecting storylines of Drake, Rose, the Captain and Miss Susan, and the effect of Reid’s disappearance on them.

The Walking Dead "Crossed" Review (Spoilers!)

It’s a rescue mission (Well, the beginning of one) in this week’s thrilling instalment of The Walking Dead as we approach the mid season finale.

Twitter Teaser: Sherlock Special

11/25/2014

by Cookie N Screen

For the first time in forever, we don’t just get three episodes of Sherlock. For the first time in forever, we don’t have to wait for a decade in between seasons whilst Freeman and Cumberbatch play as famous celebrities for long stints. For the first time in forever, we’re going to get four episodes of Sherlock. Four.

And BBC, being the devilish little buggers that they are, have released a brand new image of our super sleuth team in the upcoming special. Hold your hats, it’s going to be good.

Homeland "There's Something Else Going On" Review (Spoilers!)

by Graham Osborne

As we approach the end of Season Four, Homeland continues its Two and a Half Men-esque trend of naming episodes after random quotes from the episode, but this week also continue its trend of being an outstanding TV show, as tensions run high and it leaves us with a terrifying cliff-hanger. Exciting stuff!
