Snowpiercer
Snowpiercer grips viewers in the very first instant with the quintessential hook and implores them to ask questions—deep, meaningful questions, to which there are no easy answers.
DetailsStargirl
Stargirl is finally here and it’s showing on The CW as well as the DCEU. Will the third time be the charm for the young hero?
DetailsMisfits
In direct opposition to the typical superhero archetype, Misfits follows the story of five juvenile offenders—people who are frequently considered to be “bad” in the eyes of the greater public—and humanizes them.
DetailsStar Wars: The Clone Wars
Audiences remember the first time they saw Order 66 in action. They have the emotional context for how it devastated the Jedi, for how it led to the Empire’s rise and changed the war forever. The Clone Wars deepens the story by offering more perspectives, instead of choosing to expand it by offering more plot.
DetailsThunderbirds
This show is a perfect storm of storytelling elements. It is a sum greater than its parts—and its parts are pretty fantastic.
DetailsThe Plot Against America
The Plot Against America is not shy about its morals or its perceived place in current society. It doesn’t take too much work for the audience to understand why this story—one surrounding the successful election of an under-qualified celebrity with a following among certain extremist groups—might exist in the year 2020.
DetailsVagrant Queen
Outcast Queen Elida lives her life as a scavenger, finding out her mother is alive, forcing her to return home to find and free her. This series is based on a comic book, but it felt like a bad fanfiction of several popular sci-fi works. How bad of a fanfiction? Let’s find out.
DetailsTales from the Loop
Tales From the Loop is a science fiction anthology series, each episode following people interacting with technology that bends reality. I can see it being revered by pretentious film majors, detested by everyone else. Neither party would be wrong. How? Let me explain.
DetailsMotherland: Fort Salem
Motherland: Fort Salem follows three witches as they enter a witch military academy just as a terrorist organization starts to massacre people. Although this may not be saying much, this is the best thing I’ve seen on Freeform. Why? Let me explain.
DetailsTerra Nova
In the year 2149 the Earth is dying, and people travel back in time to a prehistoric version of Earth, where dinosaurs roam, to join settlement: “Terra Nova”. In 2011 when it was made, Terra Nova had one of the biggest budgets in television history, though that doesn’t make it good. In the case of Terra Nova, the distinction between “good” and “expensive” is important. Why? Let’s find out.
