Russell T Davies returns to Manchester with Tip Toe, a five-part drama that initially disguises something deeply uneasy as an ordinary dispute between neighbors. Alan Cumming stars as Leo Struthers, the charismatic but slightly adrift owner of Spit & Polish on Canal Street, while David Morrissey plays Clive Goss, the electrician who has lived next…
Outlander: Blood of My Blood has always treated romance and clan politics as inseparable, but Season 2 Episode 3 turns Castle Leoch itself into the center of the story. Titled “Rabbits Don’t Swim,” the episode sends Brian Fraser and Dougal MacKenzie toward the Jacobite campaign while Ellen MacKenzie is left behind with a divided family,…
The Sisters Grimm Season 2 sends Sabrina and Daphne deeper into Ferryport Landing at the exact moment their original reason for coming there starts pulling them in another direction.

Kill Jackie gives Jackie Price a long list of reasons to stay anonymous, but none is more immediate than the Seven Demons. Catherine Zeta-Jones’ glamorous art dealer has spent two decades keeping her earlier life hidden, only to discover that one of the most feared groups in the criminal world has accepted a contract that…
Apple TV’s The Sisters Grimm does not treat Michael Buckley’s novels like a rigid episode-by-episode blueprint. The animated series keeps the books’ basic world, characters and mystery structure, but condenses adventures, changes chronology and keeps Sabrina and Daphne’s missing parents much closer to the center of the television story. That becomes especially clear in Season…
Kill Jackie gives Jackie Price a life built around movement.

The series needed locations capable of making that world feel genuinely international rather…

Someone has reached into the criminal life she abandoned 20 years earlier and put the Seven Demons on her trail, so Jackie naturally assumes that the answer must be buried among the enemies she made before reinventing herself as an art…
Kill Jackie introduces Catherine Zeta-Jones as the kind of character who seems designed specifically around her: elegant, sharp-tongued, Welsh, immensely wealthy and capable of becoming very dangerous when the life she has carefully constructed starts falling apart. Yet Jackie Price did not begin on the page as Jackie at all. The AMC+ and Prime Video…
American Horror Story: 13 brings the witches of Miss Robichaux’s Academy back into the center of the story in Episode 6, “The Return of Devil’s Night,” but one of the episode’s most important developments involves a newcomer rather than Cordelia, Madison or Queenie. Morwenna, played by Alex Consani, demonstrates a magical ability so advanced that…
For most of Prime Video’s Red Queen, Mr. White has existed more as a shadow over Antonia Scott than as a conventional villain standing in front of her.

Red Queen Season 2 brings Antonia Scott and Jon Gutierrez’s Marbella investigation to an end, but its final minutes make it clear that their larger story is nowhere near finished. Mr. White finally emerges from the background as a direct threat to the Red Queen organization, while Sandra’s return leaves Jon caught in the middle…
Prime Video’s Red Queen Season 2 (Also Known as Reina Roja) initially looks like a contained new case for Antonia Scott and Jon Gutierrez.
