“Crazy is bad for business.” Within the first twenty seconds of the show, we see multiple crimes happen in one spot before Cobblepot’s eyes after he declares, “Home.” This serves as small dramatization of what the entire city is actually facing with the mob running the city and cops letting crime run loose. With the […]

“You must be such a scamp.” The pilot episode played the role of setting up the world of Gotham and immersing the audience into several characters, possible story directions, and the city itself. It is worth repeating that I absolutely love the settings of each shot in the show. The creators did an excellent job in

Penguin Begins First in a long list of DC Comics television shows making their debut/return this fall, Gotham has arrived on FOX. I have to be honest, I have been a little skeptical of this show since it was announced because the idea of a Batman show without the Batman seemed less than thrilling. But after watching the pilot

Our favorite crooked lawyer’s show, Better Call Saul, tweeted this photo: Before there could be Saul Goodman, there was Jimmy McGill. #BetterCallSaul Series Premiere is coming this February. pic.twitter.com/2Rr7w41SVs — BetterCallSaul (@BetterCallSaul) August 24, 2014 Blue matchbooks with our lawyer’s Anglo name.

This week’s episode of The Leftovers was the most delirious one yet. This episode gives focus to Kevin Garvey and Nora Durst, and to a lesser extent, Jill Garvey and her friend Aimee, who’s living at her house for whatever reason – perhaps Aimee’s family got taken away or she’s detached from any of her

Folks, this is it. This is the episode where I realize watching all the previous episodes of The Leftovers was not an exercise in vain. This is the episode where we finally get to see some faint conception of continuity. “Solace For Tired Feet” is quite the ironic name for this episode as we literally get

After surviving for months on some photos and a billboard, we finally get to see some footage from the upcoming Breaking Bad spin-off series, Better Call Saul. It’s a little less than ten seconds, and with no music, you get to meditate on Saul’s sagely words. This is the only show, to my knowledge, that

Unlike the past episodes of The Leftovers, this episode focuses on a concept of closure but not in a way you’d expect. Like episode 3, “Two Boats and a Helicopter,” which focused on the oh-so lovable Matt Jamison (and calling back to its ancestor, LOST), “Guest” explores the inner machinations of Nora Durst’s character and

Oh, Gladys… Couch Co-op readers, I had this episode kind of spoiled for me a couple weeks before it even aired after a hapless Google image search to get some great pictures for one of my esteemed television reviews. Mind you, when I saw this I was extremely confused because it almost seemed too great
