For more than two decades, “Hell’s Kitchen” has tested whether ambitious chefs can turn individual talent into the discipline Gordon Ramsay expects inside a professional kitchen. Season 25 arrives with a fitting twist for the show’s milestone year. Every contestant is 25 years old or younger, creating a cast largely made up of chefs who…
MobLand Season 2 Episode 2, titled “Song 2,” quietly identifies the Harrigans’ biggest weakness before exploiting it in the final minutes.

American Horror Story: 13 wastes little time making Ben DeSoto question whether accepting a job at the Apollyon was a mistake. Episode 2, titled “1:13 AM,” keeps Ben inside Mr. Nas’ strange penthouse while steadily adding details that no ordinary hospice explanation can comfortably account for. His patient’s physical condition becomes harder to dismiss, Constance…
Dark Matter Season 2 Episode 5, titled Love and Be Loved, takes an unexpected detour from Jason1, Daniela, Amanda and Ryan to tell the story of another Jason who lost his chance to live with Daniela and Charlie.

By its third episode, American Horror Story: 13 has moved well beyond introducing Ben DeSoto and his unusual hospice assignment. “Rauhnacht” turns the Apollyon into the site of a bizarre holiday reunion as Constance Langdon gathers familiar faces and welcomes a woman who should belong to another era entirely: Elizabeth Short. FX’s synopsis describes the…

American Horror Story has never treated location as simple background decoration. From the Los Angeles mansion associated with Murder House to the New Orleans atmosphere surrounding Coven and the New York setting of AHS: NYC, each installment uses architecture and geography to establish its own personality. Season 13 continues that tradition, but the production has…

American Horror Story: 13 may be bringing back an unusually large collection of familiar faces, but the new season is not being built entirely around nostalgia. While Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Emma Roberts and several other franchise veterans are revisiting characters from earlier installments, the person positioned at the center of the new…

Jacob Tremblay plays Ted during…
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds closes its fourth season by putting Nyota Uhura at the center of one of the show’s most ambitious temporal mysteries. Episode 10, “Tomorrow’s Enterprise,” begins with a scientific mission involving a white hole, but what looks like another unusual Enterprise assignment gradually becomes a deeply personal story about Uhura, Scotty,…
Unabomber is less interested in presenting Ted Kaczynski’s life as one continuous biography than in putting two versions of him beside each other. Jacob Tremblay plays the teenage Harvard prodigy, while Michael Laurence appears as the older man being sought decades later. Between those timelines are Russell Crowe’s Professor Henry Murray, Annabelle Wallis’ Christiana Morgan…
