Josh Reviews True Detective Season 2
I watched both the first and the second seasons of True Detective several months after they aired. For season one, after months of reading rapturous praise for the new show, I just had to see what all the fuss was about. (Click here for my review.) For season two, after reading
Josh Reviews Game of Thrones: Season Five!
I fell in love with Game of Thrones fairly early in its first season. I keep waiting for the show to falter, but I am continually impressed and amazed by this spectacular show which seems to continue building and deepening the characters and the world. No show in years has held me
Welcome Back, Darth Vader!
I just recently watched “The Siege of Lothal,” the one-hour second-season premiere of Star Wars Rebels. It’s a terrific episode, the best Rebels has done so far. The main reason why it’s so good? The welcome return of Darth Vader. And when I say the ret
“Bravo.” Josh Bids Farewell to Mad Men!
Mad Men season one was, I am pretty sure, the first TV show set I ever owned on blu-ray. It was a gift, given to me soon after I bought my first blu-ray player. At the time, I’d heard about but had never seen this new cable show, and also I wasn’t sure if I […]

Josh Reviews Netflix’s Daredevil: Season One!
Let’s cut right to the chase: Netflix’s thirteen-episode first season of Daredevil is a triumph, a gloriously dark, gritty, adult depiction of The Man Without Fear. Netflix’s Daredevil is the finest super-hero television show I have ever seen. Am I exaggerating?
Late to the Party: Josh Reviews Breaking Bad Season 3
I am slowly, slowly getting caught up with Breaking Bad! Click here for my review of season one and here for my review of season two. Much has been written about the way the Breaking Bad burns through story-lines, taking plot-lines that other shows would drag out for years and dispe
Late to the Party: Josh Reviews Fargo (The Series)
When I first read that Fargo, the wonderful Coen Brothers movie, was being adapted into a TV series, I was not remotely interested. Can you blame me? When is the last time a good movie was successfully turned into a TV show that was remotely worth one’s time? But then a fu
Josh Reviews The Jinx
HBO’s riveting six-episode true-crime documentary series, The Jinx, is one of the most compelling pieces of television I have seen in a long time. This is edge-of-your-seat television, and the twists and turns of the story are so staggeringly jaw-dropping because these things
