  • Title: Daredevil: Born Again – Isle of Joy
  • wiki: link

Moving past the Muse storyline as quickly as possible, which was little more than a blip, “Isle of Joy” offers and episode focusing on our hero and villain’s relationships with storylines designed to bring one couple together and (perhaps unnecessarily) pull the other apart. Despite several characters telling us over and over again that Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) has become erratic and emotional, I think that’s more than a bit of an overstatement to ultimately get the episode where it needs to go in the time allotted.

  • Title: Matlock – The Johnson Case
  • IMDb: link

A law friend of Olympia (Skye P. Marshall) brings a difficult case to the firm involving a juror who felt pressured to convict a man (Del Zamora) two decades ago despite the rather weak evidence against  him. Having to get create to have a judge look into the case, they use the harassment the juror received to crack the door just small enough to find a way to prove their client innocent such as uncovering a witness overhearing the victim arguing with her grandson before she died (which the cops and prosecution conveniently didn’t investigate). Although he isn’t the killer, there’s enough for Olympia to get a reluctant Andrew Park (Andrew Ghai) involved and find the real killer.
