THE GATHERING - SEASON ONE

The plotting is wayward and the denouement feels forced. What’s impressive is the socio-emotional interplay between the young cast, the sense of real, raw lives being lived.

RESIDENT EVIL: INFINITE DARKNESS - SEASON ONE

This seems like a project solely for committed fans, the kind of people who would most want to see a connection to those previous stories and the latest one. Infinite Darkness is doing its own thing. Unfortunately, that thing isn't terribly compelling

THE WALKING DEAD: WEBISODES - SEASON ONE

Nothing new is being offered. It doesn’t really go anywhere. Heroes struggle and villains triumph and then fall, but none of it seems to mean much.

GRAND ARMY - SEASON ONE

There are many series and made-for-streaming movies about teenage life on Netflix. But none as ambitious, sobering, and bold as Grand Army. It lets several of its cast members shine through complex characters and culturally specific plotlines

THE WALKING DEAD: WORLD BEYOND - SEASON ONE

World Beyond: a lot of talk, and not much to show for it.

FARZAR - SEASON ONE

Farzar is a hoot. It is the perfect, chaotic amalgamation of zany sci-fi elements, awkward humor, adult jokes, poop jokes, and commentaries on the various social issues that plague humanity at this very moment.

MISSING YOU - SEASON ONE

Missing You ultimately fails to deliver in any satisfactory manner, losing the gut-wrenching thrill that its predecessors had and the signature, unpredictable twists. So as long as you’re not expecting small screen mastery, or indeed the performance of year (it is the first of January after all) then do go forth and gobble up this latest Coben drama.

NIGHTFLYERS - SEASON ONE

Don't even test out Nightflyers. Let it die as early and as inevitably as its entire cast.

WELCOME TO EDEN - SEASON ONE

If you sit back and don’t think about it too hard, Welcome to Eden is classic binge material. The whole show has a dreamy, hypnotic, creepy feel to it, which makes it easy to devour one episode after another late into the night.

THE BARRIER (LA VALLA) - SEASON ONE

Well-paced; somewhat cliched plot. It's not going to become a classic, but it's enjoyable enough.
