Ricky Church reviews the tenth episode of 24: Legacy… Well, the comparisons to 24: Legacy and its predecessor grew even more with its latest episode.

Star Wars Rebels Season 3 Episode 17 Review – ‘Secret Cargo’
Chris Cooper reviews Star Wars Rebels – ‘Secret Cargo’… From a story sense Secret Cargo is a very simple episode of Star Wars Rebels.
