Jane the Virgin Chapter 36 recap: Babies and a Ring!

Looks like Rafael is the only one getting busy in this episode of Jane the Virgin.  Even though he’s pretty sure he can’t have any kids, he’s not taking any chances. At least he’s thinking about making sure that he doesn’t have any more surprise babies. He’s also actually trying to work things out with Michael now that he’s back with Jane. Nothing is perfect but at least he’s trying. The Villanueva women think Rogelio is ignoring them while he’s on vacation, when he’s really being held hostage by his psycho prison pen pal turned stalker. Now that is a […]

Downton Abbey series finale: Crawleys party like it’s 1926

ALSO SEE: Michelle Dockery content with Lady Mary’s closure on Downton Abbey It’s the Christmas gift that Downton Abbey fans in the U.S. have waited more than two months to open. The series finale aired in the U.K. as a Christmas special in December, and fans stateside have had to avoid the temptation of peeking at news and reviews from across the pond. The Downton Abbey series finale airs on PBS Sunday, March 6, at 9pm ET (check local listings). While we’re not exactly in the Christmas spirit this month, fans should still expect to experience all of the feels […]

Better Call Saul’s Rhea Seehorn: Kim knows who Jimmy is

Better Call Saul fans are thrilled to see the splendid Rhea Seehorn logging more screen time as put-upon litigator Kim Wexler in Season 2 of the Breaking Bad spinoff, airing Mondays on AMC. As Kim — Jimmy McGill’s biggest fan, sometime lover and longtime conscience — the actress has much to do as Bob Odenkirk’s morally flexible jurist marches ever closer to becoming outright shyster Saul Goodman. “With Kim, it’s just as much about what she doesn’t say as what she does say,” Seehorn says of her no-nonsense character, “and that intelligence continues in her relationships. Kim does not love and support […]

Underground on WGN: Follow the Underground Railroad beyond the history books

WGN America’s ambitious Underground hopes to move what most Americans know about the Underground Railroad well beyond some hazy recollections from history class. The rending 10-episode drama — a three-year labor of love co-executive produced by John Legend and filmed in part on the Plantation Quarters at the Louisiana State University Rural Life Museum — intertwines tales of husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, and souls who feel unbearably alone into an intense examination of race, economics, cowardice and courage anchored in the moral and fiscal morass that fostered slavery in 1857 America. “One […]

How to Get Away with Murder Season 2 Episode 13 Recap: Something Bad Happened

The title of this week’s How to Get Away with Murder is “Something Bad Happened.” That could be the title for any HTGAWM episode, but it really foreshadows what is to come at the end of this one. Before getting there, we begin with Annalise telling Laurel to eliminate the idea that Wes killed his mom. Laurel wants to know more, but Annalise isn’t spilling. Wes visits the therapist who initially sent him to the psych ward. He is still trying to remember what happened with his mom’s murder. Another video pops up, believed to be from Phillip. This one is […]

Better Call Saul Season 2 episode 3 — Schmaltz across Texas

For my money, there is no one better at opening an episode than Vince Gilligan and company. No one. And tonight’s Better Call Saul episode “Amarillo” boasts a doozy. With Ernest Tubb crooning “Waltz Across Texas” as his accompaniment, Jimmy strikes a classic cowboy pose. You know the one. The stuff cowboy-silhouette yard art is made of. Decked in a Stetson, armadillo bolo tie and cowboy boots — apparently Wrangler does not make business suits — our guy leans against a wall that’s painted like a giant Texas flag. He’s, indeed, in Amarillo. A passenger van pulls up and the driver gets out, apologizing […]
