Watchmen Season 1 Episode 8 Review – ‘A God Walks into Abar’
Martin Carr reviews the eighth episode of Watchmen… Imagine taking one location and two characters then stretching that meeting over an hour of screen time.

TV Review – Servant Season 1

Watchmen Season 1 Episode 7 Review – ‘An Almost Religious Awe’
Martin Carr reviews the seventh episode of Watchmen… From Blaxploitation homage to Balboa boxing soundtrack via the Godfather of Soul, Watchmen has it all.

Past and present are revealed simultaneously whilst the conundrum of Doctor Manhattan overshadows […]
His Dark Materials Series 1 Episode 5 Review – ‘The Lost Boy’
Martin Carr reviews the fifth episode of His Dark Materials… There is something fundamentally sacrilegious under discussion between the lines in The Lost Boy which has little to do with burgeoning relationships. By separating mind and body from other more theological elements Pullman raises one of life’s great questions. If we exist inside a body […]
