TV Show Review

The Last of Us: Breaking the video game adaptation curse

The show’s expansion does not mean it strays away from the source material.

TV Show Review / The White Lotus: Unbridled chaos in lush paradise

It’s all you need to escape this freezing winter.

Alice in Borderland returns for an explosive second season

Alice in Borderland returns with season 2 and more questions than answers.

Wednesday is modernisation done right

Wednesday uses various tropes to build contrast between a normal scenario and one that is infused with the delightfully ghoulish charm.

Exploring the royal artiste of Matt Smith

In both House of the Dragon and The Crown, Smith was equally fascinating.

TV Show Review / House of the Dragon revives Game of Thrones franchise with a standout first season

The showrunners lived up to expectations, delivering a brilliant storyline in House of the Dragon.

TV SHOW / Is Roar too loud for TV or just loud enough?

Roar is a unique blend of magical realism, speculative fantasy, and futuristic worlds.

PLAYWATCH / CALLS: A worthy successor to The Twilight Zone?

Apple TV+'s new sci-fi might just be the next best thing.

Sabrina: The Melodramatics of a Teenage Half-Witch

Very basic, hardly exciting, and a slightly-tweaked version of the supernatural drama formula.

The weight of The Crown

​The Crown recently released the gem that is season four. Fans had high expectations -- and the show delivered.

Nuanced, Colourful and Memorable

Star vs. the Forces of Evil, crudely abbreviated as SvtFoE, is the most recent major Disney show that met its conclusion last May after airing for four seasons. As regrettably cheesy as the name sounds, the show did hold a memorable place in Disney’s arsenal of mostly forgettable shows.

Netflix in Bangladesh really opens up a whole new expanse of shows to the general populace. Shows that would never make it to mainstream TV channels here are now available to those who want something different. And Derry Girls is one show that really hits that description.

Here's my “Thank You” to Gravity Falls

Out of all the generic animated shows we have become accustomed to throughout the course of the past few years, Gravity Falls is something that we viewers would love to call a breath of fresh air.

You and romantic stalkers

Romantic dramas and YA novels are known for many things, including romanticising abusive relationships. We've all seen or read about that male protagonist; the mysterious, brooding guy with a dark past who's manhandling and belittling the female protagonist at every turn.

Animals from cartoon shows as pets

Of course you've spent hours in front of the TV watching classic cartoons and wishing your life could be just as fun. And because almost all cartoon shows have animals as pets, this is how it would be if you had a cartoon character in your house.

Strange TV shows from our childhoods

Childhood memories usually stay in the perimeter of family trips, having fun with friends, the first time doing something we're not supposed to do and would most certainly get in trouble for, getting the highest marks on an exam, etc.

Downsides of one (almost) successful robbery

The Primetime Emmy Award nominee Christina Hendricks has that unique charm of confusing anyone in Good Girls. You never know when she is joking and when her head is steaming.

Back to robots dabbling in philosophy

From the get go, this season shows us the extent of the fractured timelines for this season. They turn it from a plot twist to the central mystery. We are shown separate timelines, from the perspective of several key characters. We are then left to wonder what's happening when and how it'll all unfold and fit together.
