| No Score Yet | Trollhunters: Part 3 (TV, 2018) |
If Trollhunters was a series you were unsure was worth your time, now is the perfect time to give it a chance.‐ ScreenRant

| 100% | A Series of Unfortunate Events: Season 2 (TV, 2018) |
It is with our deepest sympathies that we must inform you of a new season of A Series of Unfortunate Events and that it remains as delightfully absurd and quirky as the first season. ‐ ScreenRant

| No Score Yet | Voltron: Legendary Defender: Season 5 (TV, 2018) |
Voltron: Legendary Defender season 5 is a short season, but one that's packed with new information and surprising developments.‐ ScreenRant

| 100% | Star Wars Rebels: Season 4 (TV, 2017-2018) |
This isn't to suggest that tonight's episode, 'Rebel Assault', is a bad installment or that it takes the season off track - quite the opposite, in fact - but having it serve as midseason finale makes for an arbitrary point in the action to hit pause.‐ ScreenRant

| 84% | The Walking Dead: Season 8 - Honor (TV Episode) |
"Honor" manages to be a reflective if slow episode in which Andrew Lincoln, Danai Gurira and especially Chandler Riggs deliver some very touching and at times heart-wrenching performances.‐ ScreenRant

| 100% | Star Wars Rebels: Season 3 (TV, 2016-2017) |
It was at times gripping, other times solemnly reflective, but was mostly a solid end for what has been a rather good season of Star Wars Rebels.‐ ScreenRant

| 62% | The Walking Dead: Season 8 - How It's Gotta Be (TV Episode) |
However, though this development gives The Walking Dead a little more oomph as its heads into hiatus, it can't fully revive what has been a most tedious string of episodes.‐ ScreenRant

| 80% | The Walking Dead: Season 8 - Time for After (TV Episode) |
Josh McDermitt is doing amazing work in this episode, really selling the conflict within Eugene with what might be he best performance yet as the character. ‐ ScreenRant

| 32% | The Walking Dead: Season 8 - The King, the Widow, and Rick (TV Episode) |
"The King, The Widow, and Rick" is an over-stuffed, boring episode that doesn't include nearly enough engaging material to make it a memorable entry.‐ ScreenRant

| 85% | The Walking Dead: Season 8 - The Big Scary U (TV Episode) |
"The Big Scary U" is an episode that's longer than it needs to be, includes extraneous scenes that seem to only be there to pad out the runtime, but it somehow also contains some of the best scenes in season 8.‐ ScreenRant

| 89% | The Walking Dead: Season 8 - Some Guy (TV Episode) |
Without question, "Some Guy" is The Walking Dead season 8's strongest episode to date, tearing Ezekiel down in the hope he'll bounce back a stronger leader while finally wrapping up this needlessly drawn out phase of Rick's attack plan.‐ ScreenRant

| No Score Yet | Voltron: Legendary Defender: Season 3 (TV, 2017) |
Longtime Voltron fans have been waiting for Prince Lotor to appear, and hopefully, they aren't disappointed because his arrival signals a real shake-up in how the show will operate.‐ ScreenRant

| 86% | Castlevania: Season 1 (TV, 2017) |
Filled with spectacle, fascinating characters, and a healthy dose of the macabre, Castlevania proves a rousing tale for adaptation.‐ ScreenRant

|
| 100% | Samurai Jack: Season 5 (TV, 2017) |
Jack is back and better than ever. The years may not have been kind to the samurai, but his suffering makes for good television, promising a contemplative and compelling season.‐ ScreenRant

| 88% | The Flash: Season 4 (TV, 2017-2018) |
Season 4 seems heavily invested in turning the clock back to an earlier, simpler time.‐ ScreenRant

| 54% | The Walking Dead: Season 8 - Monsters (TV Episode) |
The pacing of "Monsters" was a big improvement over last week's episode, and some strange editing at the start aside, this was a far more enjoyable episode of The Walking Dead.‐ ScreenRant

| 48% | The Walking Dead: Season 8 - The Damned (TV Episode) |
"The Damned" is a mess of an episode, incapable of mustering anywhere near the excitement it should thanks to confusing plotting and lazy writing.‐ ScreenRant

| 90% | The Walking Dead: Season 8 - Mercy (TV Episode) |
While this season 8 premiere spends a good amount of its time setting the stage for the survivors' attack on The Sanctuary, "Mercy" is more deeply concerned with examining Rick's role as a leader.‐ ScreenRant

| 94% | Stranger Things: Season 2 (TV, 2017) |
Stranger Things season 2 isn't just delivering more of what audiences loved the first time (though, don't worry, it totally does), but it's building on that foundation, crafting an even stronger emotional resonance.‐ ScreenRant

| 83% | Rick and Morty: Season 2 - The Wedding Squanchers (TV Episode) |
It's a somber ending, for sure, but then Rick and Morty has always played well with unexpected emotions.‐ ScreenRant

| 83% | Rick and Morty: Season 2 - A Rickle in Time (TV Episode) |
The season 2 premiere illustrates that the series has become comfortable with combining the truly bizarre with the sincere, a unique staple of Rick and Morty.‐ ScreenRant

| 94% | A Series of Unfortunate Events: Season 1 (TV, 2017) |
Having Warburton's Snicket freely walk in and out of scenes like he's Rod Serling from The Twilight Zone works brilliantly, with each dryly delivered line perfectly translating the book's narration for the screen.‐ ScreenRant

| 84% | The Flash: Season 3 (TV, 2016-2017) |
It's possible all this time-traveling and rewriting of history is beginning to wear thin, and even the writers can no longer keep it all straight.‐ ScreenRant

| 83% | Scream Queens: Season 2 (TV, 2016) |
Scream Queens season 2 hasn't skipped a beat, and if you enjoyed its campy ridiculousness last season, this one promises more of the same. It's wacky, it's funny, and at times thrilling in a way only the best slashers can ever be.‐ ScreenRant

| 95% | Stranger Things: Season 1 (TV, 2016) |
Stranger Things is a spooky thriller presented with just enough of a 1980s pastiche it creates a mood which only heightens the horror. The nostalgia is palpable, but then so is the terror which is so multilayered, pulling at a number of primal fears.‐ ScreenRant

| 100% | Voltron: Legendary Defender: Season 1 (TV, 2016) |
It isn't trying to reinvent or really improve on the original conceit of Voltron, but Legendary Defender is certainly a welcome take on this classic cartoon; one that should appeal to fans both new and old.‐ ScreenRant

| 61% | American Gothic: Season 1 (TV, 2016) |
If a quasi-suspenseful thriller filled with campy, soap opera theatrics is your cup of tea, then American Gothic may be entertaining enough (if not thoroughly engaging).‐ ScreenRant

| 94% | Lady Dynamite: Season 1 (TV, 2016) |
For a show whose central character is simultaneously reaching her breaking point, recovering from her breakdown, and trying to sort her life out post-breakdown, Lady Dynamite is very, very funny.‐ ScreenRant

| 91% | Downton Abbey: Season 6 - Episode 9 (TV Episode) |
Viewers couldn't have asked for better hosts these past six seasons, and Downton Abbey's fond farewell is precisely that -- fond, of both its characters and their fans.‐ ScreenRant

| 77% | The Daily Show With Trevor Noah: Season 1 (TV, 2015-2016) |
The Daily Show with Trevor Noah still manages plenty of laughs and Noah's delivery, while not as bombastic as Stewart's, fits the material and the tone.‐ ScreenRant

| 64% | The Muppets: Season 1 (TV, 2015-2016) |
The Muppets goes for the jokes over the sensationalized drama, it's a riot, so here's hoping they lean more heavily on the comedy as the season progresses.‐ ScreenRant

| 91% | The Late Show With Stephen Colbert: Season 1 (TV, 2015-2016) |
There are hints of the wackiness and pointed commentary Colbert displayed while hosting The Colbert Report, but it's been slightly mellowed, better to conform to a wider, more mainstream audience.‐ ScreenRant
