Shaun Munro reviews the sixth episode of Fargo season 3… The latter half of Fargo‘s third season hit the ground running this week, building on the previous barn-burner of an episode with perhaps its most shocking and suspenseful instalment yet. From the outset, Ray means business when it comes to avenging Yuri and Meemo’s brutal assault of Nikki, […]
Fargo Season 3 Episode 5 Review – ‘The House of Special Purpose’
Shaun Munro reviews the fifth episode of Fargo season 3… “The House of Special Purpose” marks the mid-way point of Fargo‘s third season, and in many ways feels like a transitory episode, nodding towards the potential dark ends down the road for many of these characters. That’s not to say episode five wasn’t totally hilarious too, […]
Fargo Season 3 Episode 4 Review – ‘The Narrow Escape Problem’
Shaun Munro reviews the fourth episode of Fargo season 3… Fargo returns to business-as-usual after last week’s entertaining sojourn to Los Angeles, and things finally start coming together as Gloria is drawn towards the Stussys, while Emmit begins to feel the pinch from Varga and his lofty ambitions. “The Narrow Escape Problem” opens with a cameo-of-sorts from […]
Prison Break Season 5 Episode 6 Review – ‘Phaeacia‘
Shaun Munro reviews the sixth episode of Prison Break season 5… The walls well and truly close in this week as ISIL hunts down Michael and co., and having run out of contingencies, the master tactician is forced to do the one thing he hates; improvise. Unsurprisingly, their first escape attempt ends up a bust thanks to […]
Video Game Review – LocoRoco Remastered
Shaun Munro reviews LocoRoco Remastered… SCE Japan Studio’s weird and wonderful 2006 PSP platformer LocoRoco has finally received the gorgeous 4K remaster treatment it’s long been deserving of, and though its light, casual gameplay won’t be for all tastes, the dementedly cute title has lost none of its charm over the last decade. The gameplay loop is simple; you […]
Fargo Season 3 Episode 3 Review – ‘The Law of Non-Contradiction’
Shaun Munro reviews the third episode of Fargo season 3… If the first two episodes of Fargo‘s third season leaned a little too eagerly on established formula, “The Law of Non-Contradiction” keenly throws it all out the window. This is easily the most distinctly singular episode from any of its three seasons so far, entirely ditching […]

Prison Break Season 5 Episode 5 Review – ‘Contingency‘
Shaun Munro reviews the fifth episode of Prison Break season 5… With “Contingency”, Prison Break‘s fifth season reaches its half-way point, and mercifully hits the ground running after last week’s shock reveal that Sara’s husband Jacob just might be the shadowy puppet-master Poseidon. Refreshingly, writer Vaun Wilmott doesn’t force the audience through perfunctory scenes where Sara disbelieves T-Bag’s revelation […]
Fargo Season 3 Episode 10 Review – ‘Somebody to Love’
Shaun Munro reviews the season finale of Fargo season 3… The riveting and occasionally frustrating capper to Fargo‘s divisive third season broached its overarching theme of perception vs. reality (or perhaps more currently, “fake news”) in perfectly ambiguous, Coens-esque fashion, even if in many aspects “Somebody to Love” was a relatively predictable, foregone conclusion to the Stussy […]
Fargo Season 3 Episode 9 Review – ‘Aporia’
Shaun Munro reviews the ninth episode of Fargo season 3… Fargo’s third season nears its close with a riveting penultimate episode which, while less energetic than some might expect for the lead-in to a season finale, nevertheless carefully arranged the various chess pieces for one Hell of a send-off. Kicking things off, Meemo murders a man named Marvin […]
