The writing, Williams’ direction, and acting by both Lynch and James makes “Here Not Here” one of the best episodes of the season. It moves at a slower pace yet doesn’t feel sluggish at all.

The Walking Dead – “Thank You” Review. At Least the Horn Stopped Blowing, Right?
I don’t have the words for the awe that overcomes me when I think about the massive production we’re presented with. I can’t express how I feel when faced with the potential death of beloved characters. I’m overwhelmed and blown away. And I really hate Heath’s wig.

Outlander –“Lallybroch” Review. Welcome Home.
Balfe and Heughan light up the screen with their intense chemistry and the amazing way they bring these characters to life. I can’t say enough about how wonderfully done each scene between them is.

Outlander – “By The Pricking of My Thumb” Review. Witch, Please!
Filler episode at best, “By the Pricking of My Thumb” leaves me wanting. The tiny bit of action, both in and out of the bedroom, provides some excitement during the hour, but I must be honest, this episode is not one of my favorites.

The Walking Dead – “Spend” Review. Eugene Grows a Pair.

The Walking Dead – “Forget” Review. Don’t Ask For Anymore Cookies.
