Jon is caught between two kings. (click here to also see which book characters are still skipped in the show by season five!)

The BBCs Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell isn’t a silly, childish, Harry Potter rip-off. So why do people keep saying it is? A literary tradition of adult fantasy. Such an august library should speak for itself. With all that precedence, youd think the national attitude to fantasy would be pretty well-adjusted. English fantasy TV has yet to escape an association with childishness. That sense of embarrassment is discernible in several reviews of the BBCsJonathan Strange & Mr Norrell....
An earthquake rocks California in San Andreas. Luckily, Dwayne Johnson is on hand to put that disaster in its place. Its so implicitly understood by audiences that the excitement is often derived only in celebrity casting. Hes as incredulous as we are that an earthquake has stepped into his trashy blockbuster ring. Poor, poor Mother Nature hopelessly imagined this was a fair fight? And to be sure,San Andreasis amusingly broad: like the length of its namesake fault line....
Back then, BBC Films was making niche films that were struggling to get made anywhere else. And here, with Man Up, a rom com seems to have become one of those niche films. Ad content continues below Absolutely, yeah. You make a very good point. Films that might appeal more commercially to a cinema-going audience. Films like this, which are more of a risk, are being made by essentially niche independent producers....
Because narrative necessity is more important than consistency and clever lies are cool. Give or take a Christmas special or two, thats basically it. Its not a huge surprise. Retrieving Gallifrey from a pocket dimension will not be difficult in and of itself. In fact, its as simple as flicking a few switches in the TARDIS. In story terms, it can be as easy or difficult as it needs to be....
A killer third act manages to salvage an otherwise lackluster, unfunny murder-of-the-week episode. (And I love almost-watching Jimmy Stewart films.) Majorfinallyfinds out about zombies in this weeks episode. Liv isnt the one to tell him. How will Major react when he finds out that Liv herself is a zombie? Ad content continues below We have to give Livsomecredit. She did tell Major about zombies… in her hallucinations. local weatherman Johnny Frost and Major....
Its the Super Teriffic Fung Wah Holf Hour! Look, now Im a cartoon character! Hey its famous billionaire, Fung Wah! The show has gone in some wonderfully surreal, meta directions before. Would it be a poorly dubbed episode? Would the entire thing be subtitled? The Fung Wah references become more cumbersome, almost like the episode is drowning in them. And remember, thats theless weirdof the two plots. Who knows, Fung Wah probably deleted out some of the more empathetic scenes from the institution....
We should have expected it from a wedding episode. Here’s our review… What the hell was that? I guess after a surprisingly solid episode, you expect a bit of a drop, but holy crap. Communitysure is bad at weddings. I consider Shirleys remarriage in season three the worst episode of the first Harmon era. And now weve got this thing, which pretty much sucks on par. Wedding Videography is about the wedding of side-character and giant, loud nerd Garrett....
OurNetflix Pick of the Weekis the British romantic comedy series,Scrotal Recall. Now, dont let the title put you off. I know what youre thinking: Why on earth did Netflix recommend this to me? But, almost immediately after the episode begins, it is clear that Dylan is not that guy. Somewhat awkward, kind, and idealist Dylan just wants to fall in love. He wants to find the one. Usually a show heavy in flashbacks isnt my cup of tea....
AMC’s Turn: Washington’s Spies delivers one of its best episodes with “Providence.” Here’s our review… ThisTurn: Washingtons Spiesreview contains some spoilers. This weeks episode ofTurn: Washingtons Spiesfeatures a vehicle that seems to sail straight out of steampunk. Called the Turtle, its armed with explosives timed to go off after its pilot scoots far enough away. Its moved with hand-cranked propellers, and can even submerge. What does the pilot do for light while hes underwater?...
The walls have ears … and eyes and devil brandings. Here is our review of Penny Dreadful season 2, episode 4. Vanessa is finally sharing her accent with the monster squad. They are all protective, but there is a leap they are not taking. Part of this is Vanessas own fault. Theres enough different about Vanessa Ives to fill a book, much less a penny dreadful. Verbis Diablo, the devils book, is a puzzle....
Salem brings sex to a new dimension. Here is our review of Salem season 2 episode 6. But the sex was through the roof. You barely noticed Lucy Lawless wasnt in it. I dont know what John Alden (Shane West) is bitching about. Tituba (Ashley Madekwe) really is promising him the best of both worlds. He can take out the witches and the puritans with one fell schtup. And picture her in 4D....
