Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 20 Review – ‘A Dog, A Squirrel, and a Fish Named Fish’

by

Martin Carr reviews the twentieth episode of Young Sheldon… Besides the physics lesson and inclusion of Sheldon Cooper phobias, episode twenty is all about adults, young adolescents and religious intervention. There are Big Bang references, more subtle side swipes and character jibes, but ultimately Sheldon plays second fiddle. If anything he enables more interaction between […]

Supergirl Season 3 Episode 16 Review – ‘Of Two Minds’

by

Martin Carr reviews the sixteenth episode of Supergirl season 3… There is a stark dichotomy which plays into Supergirl’s ball park this week as humanity starts disintegrating.

Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 21 Review – ‘Summer Sausage, a Pocket Poncho, and Tony Danza’

That Chuck Lorre and company recognise this and use nineteen minutes to rectify […]

by

With split personalities Jerome and Jeremiah as flip sides of the same coin, Gotham contains a singular performance better suited to cinema […]

Supergirl Season 3 Episode 17 Review – ‘Trinity’

by

Martin Carr reviews the seventeenth episode of Supergirl season 3… Beyond the dictionary definitions of Trinity which touch on both religious symbolism and more specifically Christian scripture there is an inference of unity. A state of being where three individual parts make a whole and therefore create balance. Pestilence, Purity and Reign represent that twisted […]

Young Sheldon Season 1 Finale Review – ‘Vanilla Ice-Cream, Gentleman Callers, and a Dinette’

by

Martin Carr reviews the season finale of Young Sheldon… Taking quirky up a notch by focusing on the dessert choices of physicist Richard Fineman before seguing into courtship rituals amongst Texan widows, Young Sheldon maintains its batting average. Employing off beat character moments there is unintentional humour by way of intellectual awkwardness and an emotional […]
