SPOILER ALERT! THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS FROM LAST NIGHT'S EPISODE OF PENNY DREADFUL. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. out of 10 I've given a lot of praise to this show thus far (you can check out our other reviews here), but last night's episode "Possession" has brought the show to an entirely new level. I've…
out of 10 My biggest criticism of last week's episode of Penny Dreadful was the lack of explanation despite it being the mid point of the season. Somehow the people over on Showtime read it, wrote, filmed, and aired an episode in retaliation. I just needed a few answers. Instead they gave an…
It was announced yesterday that the Breaking Bad spin-off Better Call Saul was renewed for a second season! Before the first season was even done filming. This is pretty much unheard of. It's not uncommon for a show to be renewed before the series premieres, but for it to not even be done filming or even fully casting the…
It's just about halfway through the year, so it seems appropriate to star bringing out the best of lists. First, we're going to start off with the Top 5 Drama Episodes of 2014. All the episodes on this list aired in the 2014 calendar year, not the 2013-14 television series. My one rule for this…
out of 10 I dare you to find me a show that balances its larger than life premise with genuine human emotion and perspective better than Penny Dreadful.

SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched this episode of Orange is the New Black, I highly suggest you stop reading now! MVP: Taylor Schilling Orange is the New Black finished off with one of the most frustrating cliffhangers in online television history. We left Piper Chapman beating the sh!t out of Pennsatucky after…
out of 10 Three episodes in and it seems that Penny Dreadful can do no wrong. It is rare that in the first three episodes a show knows itself so intimately that it can change direction and know the audience will follow. We are returned more closely to the main storyline that was…
MVP: Lee Pace Halt and Catch Fire is to Mad Men as Low Winter Sun was to Breaking Bad. Since the announcement of the show it was evident that AMC was trying to fill the void that Mad Men is about to leave in the network's schedule. The comparisons between the two run miles through the Pilot,…
It was announced yesterday during CBS' upfronts that the How I Met Your Mother spin off How I Met Your Dad was not going to be picked up by the network. CBS Entertainment Chairman Nina Tassler commented: There were elements on the pilot that didn't work out. We tried to work out about redoing the pilot. That's not happening right…
