The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 21
Robert Frost wrote in his poem “The Road Not Taken” about two roads diverging in a yellow wood. while the wood Carol and Daryl are walking through in “Diverged” are green, not yellow, the principle is the same. Two long-time friends slowly growing apart, faced with a literal diverging path in the woods. Daryl heads one way; Carol goes another with Dog at her side. As a metaphor, it’s smack-dab on the nose, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing when both characters are intensely aware of just what’s taking place between them. They’ve walked side-by-side through hell together, but at a certain point, every journey together ends on The Walking Dead.
That’s the heaviness hanging over a pretty neatly bisected episode following Carol (Melissa McBride) down one path and Daryl (Norman Reedus) down the other.

The best episode of American Gods Season 2 delves deeply into the madness of Mad Sweeney.
This American Gods review contains spoilers.
American Gods Season 2 Episode 7
Only two characters have felt completely “on” in American Gods Season 2. Laura Moon is one. The other is her frequent scene partner, Mad Sweeney. I've praised their scenes together this season as some of the better ones thus far, and that praise continues when they're separated from one another, too.
The rest of the ensemble may seem a bit groundless, but Mad Sweeney continues to be the anchor of the second season, keeping American Gods from going adrift in stormy seas. Thankfully, he gets his own episode, highlighting his journey not to America, but how a quasi-mythological king in Ireland became a giant, fist-fighting leprechaun, tracking the various versions and transmutations of the Mad Sweeney myth before settling on the version that best fits American Gods.

American Gods is ready to square off with New Media, a million eyes all watching the same thing, and the meaning of afterlife.
This American Gods review contains spoilers.
American Gods Season 2 Episode 3
I try not to read too much into a show's behind-the-scenes drama, but with a show like American Gods, that is harder than it looks, The results on the screen in the American Gods Season 2 have little in common with the magic that happened in the first season.
Certainly, the budget seems to remain as high as it always has been, but things feel off, different somehow, and I can't help but feel like it's all down to all the trouble that plagued season two during filming. After all, reports say that actors were improvising large sections of dialog to the point where Orlando Jones was given writing credit to avoid clashes with guild rules, shooting without scripts,...

Neil Gaiman has been an icon of genre storytelling for decades, but it’s only recently that his works have made it to television — and his involvement with each project varies wildly, based on the situation. While Gaiman is currently finishing the mini-series adaptation of “Good Omens,” the cult favorite novel he co-wrote with deceased friend Terry Pratchett, the ongoing adaptation of “American Gods” is also on his radar. In a recent interview with IndieWire, Gaiman refuted what he called “slightly hysterical” reports of staffing issues behind the scenes, while also revealing just how much he contributed to Season 2.
A modern-day fable about the clash between ancient gods and the New Gods that have arisen in the 21st century, the Starz series, which premiered in April 2017, was initially run by writers Bryan Fuller and Michael Green. However, in the fall of 2017, during the development of Season 2, Fuller and Green were fired,...

An almost two-minute trailer for Season 2 of American Gods is out, showcasing the ongoing squabbles between the Old Gods and New Gods.
Based on the Nail Gaiman novel, the show will have its Season 2 bow on Sunday, March 10 at 8 Pm Et/Pt on Starz.
American Gods stars Ricky Whittle as Shadow Moon and Ian McShane as Mr. Wednesday. The one-hour drama centers on a war brewing between Old Gods and New Gods, as the traditional gods of mythological roots from around the world steadily lose believers. Their challengers are an upstart pantheon of gods reflecting society’s modern love of money, technology, media, celebrity and drugs.
In Season 2, the battle moves toward a crisis point, as the destinies of gods and men collide. While Mr. World plots revenge for the attack against him in the first season, Shadow throws in his lot...

This review contains spoilers.
6.6 Always Accountable
One of The Walking Dead's biggest strengths is the show's ability to find a character and somehow make that person into a break-out star who becomes popular with the fans beyond all the others. Daryl was pretty much that character, and he has been since the show's second season. Carol was another one, breaking out of her suburban routine and becoming a full-fledged, beloved action hero. Beth went from a suicidal nobody who barely got screen time to someone that fans are still asking about to this very day.
And now, we've got Abraham. He's got a way with words—colourful rather than classy—and a very distinctive flat-top and moustache combination that makes him instantly recognisable. The...

The Walking Dead, Season 6, Episode 6, “Always Accountable”
Written by Heather Bellson
Directed by Jeffrey F. January
Airs Sundays at 9pm (Et) on AMC
“Always Accountable” is a change from the tone of the first half of season six, while continuing to chronicle how Rick’s group are dealing with the feces hitting the fan. Oddly enough, we also get a taste of major events to come in future seasons. It’s a damn fine spoonful of chaos that’s yet to rear its ugly head. There is so much foreshadowing in this episode, it pretty much exists as a sign post of a larger path our characters are about to walk down.
That said, “Always Accountable” is very reminiscent of the season five episode “Consumed,” in which we garnered some insight into two really good characters. We’re in good company, as Norman Reedus is still compelling as the flawed anti-hero Daryl,...

While there are a number of excellent television episodes that aired during the first half of the year, not all of them made our list, due to a number of reasons, chief among them the simple fact that there are too many episodes potentially worthy of inclusion for the entire panel to watch them all. This is where our individual picks come in. Each panelist was given one slot to fill with any episode that hadn’t made the list, but which they felt belonged there. Here are our individual picks, to complement our list of the Best Episodes of 2015 (so far):

The Walking Dead, Season 5, Episode 10: “Them”
Directed by Julius Ramsay
Written by Heather Bellson
Airs Sundays at 9pm Et on AMC
In “Four Walls and a Roof,” Gareth told Rick and co. “You’ve never really known what it is to starve.” As “Them” opens, we witness Maggie sitting and crying, and sipping her tears from her hand out of pure desperation. The group has seen lows, but now they’re realizing what it is to starve and to really go without anything to fend for and live on. The next scene pictures Daryl digging up grubs and eating them for lunch, completely oblivious to the group, who waits for something to swoop down and save them. Rick is the only individual certain of their abilities, but the time has come where even the militant Abraham is doubting how much further the group can go on.

The gang is feeling understandably morose in this week's episode. Can they trust a new arrival?
This review contains spoilers.
5.10 Them
The group is at a weird point in their journey. There's no food. There's no water. There's no gasoline. They're short two friends (and relatives). Everyone seems to be at a point where they're ready to die. As Rick says, “We are the walking dead,” and they definitely look it. Pushed to the point of exhaustion, the group is low on everything you need to survive, but especially the will to keep going. There's a reason Michonne wanted to hang out in a zombie-infested gated community.
This episode comes at the perfect time in the season. After the startling death of Beth followed closely by the startling death of Tyreese, it's not surprising that the show's cast of characters are feeling a little morose. Hungry and tired and slowly dying?...

Director: Julius Ramsay. Writer: Heather Bellson. Cast: Andrew Lincoln, Norman Reedus, Glenn Rhee and Lauren Cohan. "The Walking Dead" has returned from hiatus, with two episodes now. The second episode, in the latter part of Seas. 5, is titled "Them." Though, there was very little of "Them" is this showing. After the loss of two characters in two episodes (Beth and Tyreese), the filmmakers have slowed down the pacing, significantly with this entry. Very sombre and miserable in tone, "Them" introduced a new character and another trust test, or two. Are there any survivors out there that Rick (Andrew Lincoln) can trust and not kill? He is the butcher of Woodbury, afterall. Also, this weak entry in the apocalypse was delivered via an experienced duo of showrunners: Julius Ramsay and Heather Bellson, so this showing felt a little flat, overall. Rick and his crew are making their way through Richmond, at this point.

AMC’s The Walking Dead returned in unpredictable fashion yesterday, delivering a gut-punch of an episode that will likely haunt viewers for a long time and has many looking forward to what’s next. Giving us an idea of what’s to come are two photos and a preview video from next Sunday’s episode.
Episode 5.10: “Them” – “The group feels beaten after living life on the road, but must continue to trudge along in spite of the changes they have incurred.”
Directed by Julius Ramsay off a script by Heather Bellson, “Them” airs next Sunday, February 15th at 9:00pm Est.
“Season Four of “The Walking Dead” ended with Rick and the group outgunned, outnumbered, and trapped in a train car awaiting a grim fate.
Season Five picks up shortly thereafter. What follows is a story that weaves the true motives of the people of Terminus with the hopeful...

Boardwalk Empire, “Devil You Know”
Written by Howard Korder
Directed by Jeremy Podeswa
Aired October 12, 2014
After four seasons of deliberately paced, character-based storytelling, Boardwalk Empire wasn’t going to change its approach in its final truncated season. Instead of introducing new intrigues or foes, the series used much of its time to reflect on the paths that brought Nucky and the other main characters to this point and to say an extended goodbye to the people and world of the show. With Nucky facing off against well known historical figures, an air of doom pervades much of the final episodes before they reach their poetic, but inevitable conclusion. More intriguing is the antepenultimate episode, “Devil You Know”, which says goodbye to two of the series’ most colorful characters and powerful actors, Michael Shannon’s George Mueller/Nelson Van Alden and Michael K. Williams’ Chalky White. Shannon’s intense and frequently...

The Walking Dead, Season 5, Episode 5: “Self Help”
Directed by Ernest Dickerson
Written by Heather Bellson and Seth Hoffman
Airs Sundays at 9pm Et on AMC
“Self Help” gives Abraham and Eugene their first spotlight since they first made an appearance last season. Eugene has been the sole remaining hope in this post-apocalyptic world, and this week The Walking Dead does a superb job in building and revealing his story. The group, led by Sgt. Abraham Ford (fuelled with a healthy supply of testosterone) hits the open road in a troublesome journey full of pitstops and roadblocks. From a viewer standpoint, the episode can seem frustrating but once we get to the end, we realize that the obstacles and the pitfalls lead to a great payoff. Everything and anything stops Abraham from transporting the mullet-sporting Dr. Eugene Porter to Washington D.C,; but as it turns out, the trip is the least of his worries.

Was this week's episode the best time to flesh out Abraham and Eugene's characters in The Walking Dead? Ron thinks not...

5.5 Self-Help
After last week's surprisingly good Bethisode, The Walking Dead refuses to stick with the storyline that I want to see finished and instead chooses to take a little field trip in the church bus. Yes, rather than seeing the Trojan Carol spring into action with the surprisingly capable Beth at her side (call them Daryl's Angels), we get something of an Abraham origin story. Of course, it's spread throughout the episode in little drips and drops to extend the dramatic tension, but everyone's favorite Fu Manchu gets a little more characterization besides “ginger bad-ass with a stereotypical temper.”
Abraham is in dire need of some fleshing out, so far all we know about him is the above-mentioned hot-headedness and his ability to just go...

*there are spoilers here. Director: Ernest Dickerson. Writers: Heather Bellson and Seth Hoffman. Cast: Steven Yeun, Lauren Cohan, Michael Cudlitz and Josh McDermitt. The redneck scientist, Eugene (Josh McDermitt), finally reveals himself to be someone much less important. Instead of being a scientist, who can save the world, Eugene is simply a coward. Thankfully, Eugene discovers this part of himself, before the other survivors reached Washington, D.C. Now, where will these characters go? This very darkly shot episode did not reveal any more secrets, outside of Eugene's lie. So, it will be only conjecture to say where "The Walking Dead" will end up next. Overall, "Self Help" was a character focused episode, with dramatic and action elements coming forth, secondarily. This episode was focused on the Washington crew. Rosita (Christian Serratos), Tara (Alanna Masterson), Maggie (Lauren Cohan), Glenn (Steven Yeun), Abraham and Eugene were all headed for America's former centre of.

Black Sails, Season 1: Episode 6 – “VI.”
Written by Heather Bellson
Directed by T. J. Scott
Airs Saturday nights at 9 on Starz
After an excellent episode last week, Black Sails picks up right where it left off. Following a beautifully-shot ship battle, Flint and his crew find themselves in a bit of a stalemate after boarding the ship they’ve attacked. Most of the action here takes place a night, giving the scenes an appropriately dark atmosphere as Gates tries to come up with some kind of plan to infiltrate the holding without getting his men killed. Meanwhile, Billy is becoming more and more skeptical of Flint’s intentions, creating both a physical and verbal tension in much of the episode. By the end, Billy winds up overboard, and though not seeing a dead body in an episode of television is a good indication that a character is still alive, it...
