Supergirl Season 3 Episode 14 Review – ‘Schott Through the Heart’

by

Martin Carr reviews the fourteenth episode of Supergirl season 3… After the enforced hiatus which saw Supergirl disappear off our screens due to a scheduling clash, it is nice to have things back where they belong. Cheesy karaoke, shrink wrapped superheroes and marauding prehistoric animals run rampant in this return to form. Laurie Metcalf who […]

Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 18 Review – ‘A Mother, a Child, and a Blue Man’s Backside’

by

Martin Carr reviews the eighteenth episode of Young Sheldon… Young Sheldon is increasingly about the little things. Comic asides, chuck away one liners between characters and risqué moments which enrich rather than diminish any Sheldon centric situation.

FilmStruck: The start of something great?

by

For large swathes of public, film consumption is now solely confined to the use of either Amazon or Netflix, with […]

Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 17 Review – ‘Jiu-Jitsu, Bubble Wrap, and Yoo-Hoo’

by

Martin Carr reviews the seventeenth episode of Young Sheldon… There is a naïve quirkiness which has infiltrated the back end of season one recently. Aside from the structural segues which dictate a majority of Young Sheldon, character development also makes an interesting contribution towards its overall tone. Armitage not only seems gifted at indirect impersonation […]
