Martin Carr reviews the season 4 finale of Supergirl… This closer is one hefty double edged finale sword which is savagely effective at name checking the ill-fated Christopher Reeve outing, whilst embracing irony on a global annihilation level. In a seven minute window there is Kaznian decimation, back handed betrayal and an Iron Man homage […]

Supergirl Season 4 Episode 21 Review – ‘Red Dawn’
Martin Carr reviews the penultimate episode of Supergirl season 4… Although the title might suggest otherwise this has nothing to do with John Milius, teenage Americans in a cold war state of mind or iron curtains of any kind. However there are illusions to world domination, small Eastern bloc countries controlled by invisible masterminds and […]
Supergirl Season 4 Episode 20 Review – ‘Will The Real Miss Tessmacher Please Stand Up?’
Martin Carr reviews the twentieth episode of Supergirl season 4… Conspiracies, double dealing and government moles are now the order of things in National City.

Supergirl Season 4 Episode 19 Review – ‘American Dreamer’
Martin Carr reviews the nineteenth episode of Supergirl season 4… A Supergirl free zone is both refreshing and brave given the current state of play right now in National City.

American Gods Season 2 Finale Review – ‘Moon Shadow’
Martin Carr reviews American Gods’ season 2 finale… Belief is strange as it ceases to be believed if people cease to believe in it. Adversely knowledge stems from experimentation and morphs into fact, while faith depends on interpretation leaving room for charlatans, tricksters and con artists. Media outlets either terrestrial, digital or radio harbour the […]
The Orville Season 2 Finale Review – ‘The Road Not Taken’
Martin Carr reviews The Orville’s season 2 finale… Something happens this week which fundamentally challenges audience expectations, alters dramatic intention and makes season two a benchmark.

Gotham Season 5 Finale Review – ‘The Beginning…’
Martin Carr reviews Gotham’s season 5 finale… With the recent release of a Pennyworth prequel trailer it seems apt that we bid farewell to Gotham. Like the bastard child of Christopher Nolan’s almost flawless reinvention, Gotham was greeted with derision from day one and yet has proven tenuously entertaining. Despite consistently low ratings it has […]
