Pretty Little Liars - Shadow Play

Snooping for evidence that may prove Ezra (Ian Harding) is A, the Liars find Alison‘s (Sasha Pieterse) missing diary in the teacher’s desk. While watching and old movie and going over the diary and the various other evidence she’s gathered late that night, and still popping the Uppers like Tic-Tacs, Spencer (Troian Bellisario) hallucinates herself into a black-and-white noir where the shadows hold as many questions as answers. Making the most of the look, lighting, and style, Pretty Little delivers a terrific-looking episode whose hidden truths and unclear motives fit naturally into the world of a noir tale.

While self-medicating to jog his memory resulting in increasingly vivid flashbacks of Anna (Mekia Cox), Kennex (Karl Urban) works with Dorian (Michael Ealy) to investigate the apparent unrelated deaths of two genetically-enhanced teens. As Dorian connects the two deaths to a third victim who drowned 7 months before with similar drug traces in her blood (and whose records linking her to the other victims have mysteriously disappeared), Captain Maldonado (Lili Taylor) asks Detective Stahl (Minka Kelly) to use her own personal experience as a “Chrome” to help with the case.

True Detective - Who Goes There

The end of “Who Goes There” marks the halfway point of the anthology’s first season and the midpoint of this storyline. It also gives Cohle (Matthew McConaughey) and Hart (Woody Harrelson) a legitimate lead on the crazed meth maker Reginald Ledoux (Charles Halford) who looks more and more like the killer the pair of detectives have been hunting for months. With no way to find Ledoux except through the biker gang who their suspect is now cooking meth for, Cohle goes undercover off-the-books renewing an old friendship that may lead him to a possible introduction. And, of course, that’s when things start going seriously wrong.
