Martin Carr reviews the first episode of The Orville… This looks and feels like a flagship network show. Seth MacFarlane stands front and centre taking on full creative responsibility for The Orville. An affectionate and none to subtle pastiche of The Next Generation, J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek and of course Star Trek: The Original Series. High […]
Mr. Mercedes Season 1 Episode 4 Review – ‘Gods Who Fall’
Martin Carr reviews the fourth episode of Mr. Mercedes… There are no blood and guts, nothing particularly thrilling or even risky this week in Mr. Mercedes. Instead the episode is riddled with backstory, character expansion and a little white supremacist laptop baiting. Dennis Lehane of Shutter Island fame wrote the teleplay for ‘Gods Who Fall’ […]
Preacher Season 2 Episode 12 Review – ‘On Your Knees’
Martin Carr reviews the twelfth episode of Preacher season 2… Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned if the good book is to be believed. However that anger rarely manifests itself in the form of a twelve gauge shotgun blast aimed between her eyes. So it is we are dropped into a prologue where […]
The Strain Season 4 Episode 7 Review – ‘Ouroboros’
Martin Carr reviews the seventh episode of The Strain season 4… Three episodes from the end of a four year run and someone has put their foot down. Drawing together multiple threads in a seamless manner guaranteed to have audiences cheering and offering up opportunities for serious arse kicking antics to boot. High octane, low […]
Preacher Season 2 Episode 11 Review – ‘Backdoors’
Martin Carr reviews the eleventh episode of Preacher season 2… Disharmony is rife amongst our collective gang of miscreants as we creep closer to a season finale. Cassidy, Jesse, Tulip and company stand apart but remain together in an episode which sees things return to normal. Flashbacks into a past of dubious decisions, emotional conditioning […]
Preacher Season 2 Episode 10 – ‘Dirty Little Secret’
Martin Carr reviews the tenth episode of Preacher season 2… Things start out with promise. A little bit of blasphemous bunk up, heads of diametrically opposing religious orders arguing the toss in a white washed room and some actual bodily harm. Throw in Guitar Hero, arcade game photo booth assault and an undercurrent of regret […]
Mr. Mercedes Season 1 Episode 3 Review – ‘Cloudy, with a Chance of Mayhem’
Martin Carr reviews the third episode of Mr. Mercedes… Flashbacks of childhood trauma, alternative methods of getting over migraines and a plethora of unbalanced individuals makes up Mr. Mercedes again this week. As each episode goes by it becomes more apparent that no one here is completely squeaky clean. Brady leans on Hodges, widower Ida […]
The Strain Season 4 Episode 6 Review – ‘Tainted Love’
Martin Carr reviews the sixth episode of The Strain season 4… Lovelorn, love lost, love squandered and relationships shattered define episode six of this final season mid-point. Cat and mouse car chases across country with trigger happy snipers on guard, stand between salvation and disaster in the shape of an airfield exit. Throw in some […]
The Mist Season 1 Finale Review – ‘The Tenth Meal’
Martin Carr reviews the season one finale of The Mist… Like sacrificial lambs to the slaughter people are queuing up to condemn, chastise and belittle from behind a wall of bodies. Self-preservation is paramount for all concerned with little need for small things like the truth. Those who are cast out are undeserving in the […]
Preacher Season 2 Episode 9 Review – ‘Puzzle Piece’
Martin Carr reviews the ninth episode of Preacher season 2… Just when you thought Preacher had taken things as far as possible they go ahead and redefine the line. Pip Torren’s Herr Starr is fundamental in making this happen with a combination of aridly dry wit, sexually gratuitous demands and an aloof air of resignation […]
