episode 11

This week's episode of ABC's Modern Family was unexpected and simply fantastic. It really took me by surprise in many ways—especially with how more toned down, beautiful, and heartbreaking it was – all at once. It has been incredibly hard for me to write about this episode, to be honest. I kept staring at my […]

No, it is not Monday, it's Thursday! And you know what that means – new episode of NBC's The Good Place! Though by the time you read this, it will probably be Friday… or the weekend… you know what? Just go with it… Now, we're down to the final few episodes – next week is […]

With ABC's long-running hit comedy series Modern Family set to shuffle off the network's programming coil after eleven seasons, Bleeding Cool's Alejandra Bodden is offering viewers an episode-per-episode critical look at the final season (with her recent review of "The Prescott" here and her thoughts on the issue of ethnic stereotyping here). Because let's face […]

As it turns out, the latest episode of My Hero Academia was one of the best episodes in the show's run so far. Lemillion defines what it really means to be a hero – and it has nothing to do with quirks. The slow-down of the pace on the past couple of episodes was truly […]

Hello again, friends. We're getting dangerously close to the end – and I mean the end end – of USA Network's star-studded dark darling Mr. Robot, but before Sunday's finale, there's still this past week's episode to cover. This was the last regular episode of Mr. Robot, because the finale is a two – that's […]

For those of you following Bleeding Cool's reviews of USA Network's Mr. Robot season 4 (which you should absolutely be doing – starting with her review of last week's "410 Gone" here), you know that our resident expert Adriel has been piecing together the "big picture" to Elliot's (Rami Malek) final season puzzle and offering […]

If you're a fan of the Walking Dead universe, things are pretty sweet right now – especially from the perspective of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead. Aside from having an epic appearance at this year's Comic-Con International: San Diego (SDCC), we learned not only had the series been picked up for a sixth season, but […]

If you're a fan of the Walking Dead universe, things are pretty sweet right now – especially from the perspective of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead. Aside from having an epic appearance at this year's Comic-Con International: San Diego (SDCC), we learned not only had the series been picked up for a sixth season, but […]

We're two episodes away from the end of the fourth season of TNT's Animal Kingdom… and we still don't get a heist in this week's episode "Julia." Bet they're probably going to stretch it out until the finale, but I really hope we get some action involving the boys soon. Oh, you noticed that caveat […]

Approaching the end of The CW's iZombie, this week's episode "Killer Queen" was subdued yet eventful, probably the best way I can describe it.  Although a lot happened, the "WOW" factor was missing.  It played out as if you got some spaghetti sauce on your white shirt but had a pen stain remover handy "no […]

In this week's episode of The CW's iZombie, Liv (Rose McIver) goes drag queen and looks fabulous, while Major (Robert Buckley) and Ravi (Rahul Kohli) get "weird"? Clearly Ravi and Liv make it out unscathed from Martin's (Bill Wise) basement. I can't even fathom how Liv will address the imprisoned zombies in her dad's basement. […]

One thing you can definitely never accuse Eric Wald and Dean White's Siren of – especially this season: going small. The second-half of the Freeform series' second season has been concentrating on Ryn (Eline Powell), Ben (Alex Roe), and Maddie's (Fola Evans-Akingbola) attempts to silence the impact of Ryn's "siren song" before anyone else gets "infected" – or […]

Welcome to Bleeding Cool's review of ABC's Schooled. As mentioned in this week's review of The Goldbergs, it appears that ABC's sister shows are foreshadowing a build toward Schooled's season finale. In that review, we talked a little about what The Goldbergs is potentially setting up. In this review of Schooled, we're going to take a look […]

AMC's The Walking Dead has done an effective job of taking the concept of the Whisperers as a broad, far-reaching threat and finding a way to personalize it without lessening the threat level. With "Adaptation," we had a fluid threat that appearedto be everywhere: almost a supernatural threat. In "Omega," the danger of the Whisperers […]

Through Lydia's (Cassady McClincy) myriad of mangled memories–reinforced over the years through mental and physical abuse–viewers of AMC's The Walking Dead "Omega" witnessed firsthand Alpha's (Samantha Morton) disturbing origins, as well as the birth of the Whisperers. By the end of the episode, it was the viewers and our Hilltop heroes who finally got to […]

The CW's newest episode of Black Lightning was both shocking and somewhat atypical, with "The Book of Secrets: Prodigal Son" finding Tobias racking up an even bigger body count than usual – with a few recurring character deaths, too. He gets closer to getting his hands on the metahumans in the pods under the Freeland […]

Welcome back to Bleeding Cool's recap of the seventh season of the The CW's Arrow, continuing with this week's episode "Past Sins." Arrow s07e11 'Past Sins': The past comes back to haunt both Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Laurel (Katie Cassidy). Curtis (Echo Kellum) is upset when he discovers that Diggle (David Ramsey) and Lyla (guest star Audrey Marie Anderson) […]

This week's episode of the CW's Supergirl was a truly meaningful one, especially for those who have wanted to learn more about Nia Nadal's Dreamer–and even more for those who care for Nia both as character she is and for the transgender actress who plays her, Nicole Maines. Her social media interactions with viewers are a […]

The CW's Supernatural is definitely setting us up for an overload of feels in the 300th episode, with each week delivering classic Winchester dilemmas and heartwarming family moments. In "Damaged Goods," we see Dean (Jensen Ackles) face another seemingly impossible situation that requires sacrifice – once again.   This whole episode had me on edge. […]

After last week's episode of the CW's Charmed found her spending some "quality time" in Tartarus and then becoming addicted to powers-disrupting numbness used to deal with the pain of being betrayed by Parker (Nick Hargrove), it appears Maggie's (Sarah Jeffery) going to take to a little song to get her mind off her troubles. What […]
