A Series of Unfortunate Events - The Miserable Mill television review

The two-part season finale offers a slight change to the proceedings but doesn’t stray too far from the formula we’ve seen in previous episodes. The only difference this time is that the Violet (Malina Weissman), Klaus (Louis Hynes), and baby Sunny choose their latest location as they are put to work in the Lucky Strikes Lumber Mill where they hope to learn information about their parents. And, once again Count Olaf (Neil Patrick Harris) shows up in yet another ridiculous disguise hoping to get his hands on the children and their fortune. In the show’s biggest twist, we also see the the fate of Will Arnett and Cobie Smulders who are revealed not to be the Baudelaire’s parents, but part of the same mysterious society and those of another group of unfortunate children who should cross the paths of the Baudelaires next season.

Hawaii Five-0 - Ka pa'ani nui television review

Hawaii Five-0 uses a staple of movie and television villains for it’s latest episode when the death of a young woman in a remote region of Hawaii leads them to suspect that a Nazi war criminal has been in hiding for 70 years. The B-story involves the unrelated homicide of a rich dickhole on the island looking to go shark hunting. While the evidence initially seems to point to the groups protecting sharks, the truth is actually quite the opposite.

Beyond - Celeste television review

While other subplots involve Jeff (Jeff Pierre) attempting to recruit Tom (Michael McGrady) to help in his investigation, Luke (Jonathan Whitesell) getting expelled from college, and Willa (Dilan Gwyn) learning more of grandfather’s secrets involving her parents, the real focus of “Celeste” is to introduce Holden (Burkely Duffield) to Charlie (Eden Brolin). It’s obvious (at least to the audience) that Charlie can’t be trusted, but even through her charade you can see there is some genuine appreciation for Holden and the life her organization wants to rip him from.

A Series of Unfortunate Events - The Wide Window TV review

The turbulent lives of the Baudelaire children get no easier when Violet (Malina Weissman), Klaus (Louis Hynes), and baby Sunny meet their new guardian Aunt Josephine (Alfre Woodard) who proves to be far-less fearless than her reputation. As with the previous episode, the conflict stems from the arrival of Count Olaf (Neil Patrick Harris) in another ridiculous disguise that somehow only the Baudelaires are able to see through. This time the villain arrives as a ship captain attempting to woo their guardian to get control of the children and their fortune.

Emerald City - Everybody Lies TV review

The final scene of “Everybody Lies” is the most interesting of the entire episode as Dorothy‘s (Adria Arjona) journey to find the Wizard (Vincent D’Onofrio) comes to an end. Before we get there, however, there’s trouble for Dorothy and her new friends. Delivered into the clutches of West (Ana Ularu), Dorothy is caged and tortured by the witch who, despite her ability to read memories, is completely incapable of seeing the truth of Dorothy’s journey and the events concerning the witch’s death. Eventually helped by Tip (Jordan Loughran), Dorothy manages to escape and walk right into the Wizard’s private chambers carrying a loaded gun without a single guard offering even the most token effort of resistance.
