TV Recaps
  • Succession (S2/E2) The Lion’s Den Once again, Logan has all his children firmly under his thumb, each completely vulnerable to his capriciousness.
  • Mindhunter (S2/E3) A City Too Busy to Hate Holden’s trip to Atlanta establishes some crucial context for atrocities yet to come.
  • Mindhunter (S2/E2) Open Doors Bill and Holden interview their first celebrity murderer of the season, building out a profile on BTK that’s mostly — but not entirely — accurate.
  • Mindhunter (S2/E1) In Every Dream Home a Heartache Season two picks up at the absolute low point in the BSU’s existence, as it’s overcome by paranoia, distrust, and infighting.
  • Younger (S6/E9) The Fallout With the personal fallout from The Secret mostly addressed, it’s time to pivot to the business fallout. It’s not great!
