Monarch: Legacy of Monsters - Secrets and Lies

In another strong episode, “Secrets and Lies” gives us Cate (Anna Sawai), Kentaro (Ren Watabe), and May (Kiersey Clemons) making their way out of Japan with Lee (Kurt Russell) and their journey to Alaska to search for answers about what exactly Hiroshi Randa was doing there before his disappearance and what ultimately happened to him. While building some camaraderie between our explorers, the series continues to foreshadow more than one of them are holding onto secrets which obviously won’t stay secret for the entirety of the journey. The episode ends on a cliffhanger for our group who will be spending a little more time in Alaska than they planned.

Rick and Morty - Rickfending Your Mort

Rick and Morty lampoon clip shows with “Rickfending Your Mort” when Morty‘s (Harry Belden) attempts to get an unengaged Rick (Ian Cardoni) back into action end up in an argument needing a mediator to solve. Obviously designed off of Star Trek‘s Guardian of Forever, the Observers view and recall all which provides some ammunition for both characters to fight with (and plenty of clicks of unseen adventures) until both Rick and Morty grow tired of the concept and can’t get rid of the Observer who starts showing anything it wants, humiliating various members of the family. After accidentally killing the Observer, Rick and Morty find themselves on trail for murder on its home world which, of course, means a whole new set of clips.

A Murder at the End of the World - Homme Fatal

The opening episode of A Murder at the End of the World offers not one but two hooks to garner interest in the series. The first comes in a book reading by author and amateur detective Darby Hart (Emma Corrin) about her experiences tracking down a serial killer. The thread is almost entirely dropped for a second hook, Darby’s invitation to an ultra-exclusive gathering thrown by a reclusive billionaire (Clive Owen) whose wife just so happens to be Darby’s personal hero (Brit Marling, who also directed and wrote the episode). From there we see Darby meet other guests and make the journey to a remote private hotel in Iceland where the two threads converge and the former boyfriend (Harris Dickinson) seen in the flashbacks of her book reading is revealed to be another guest at the party.
