| 93% | The Flash: Season 5 (TV, 2018) |
Luckily, characters like Cisco (even drunk Cisco) and Ralph "many-verse" Dibny can turn even the most uneventful episodes into something funny and memorable, and Nora's energetic, bubbly energy seems like it could do the same.‐ ScreenRant

| 94% | Doctor Who: Season 11 (TV, 2018) |
It's no easy feat to imbue a series as established Doctor Who with a new energy while still retaining its unique charm, but that's exactly what showrunner Chris Chibnall and his team pull off.‐ ScreenRant

| 92% | Star Wars: Resistance: Season 1 (TV, 2018) |
Without needing to connect to the Star Wars saga in an immensely profound or meaningful way, Resistance can just focus on telling a fun, entertaining story of hotshot pilots and the starships they fly.‐ ScreenRant

| 93% | The Walking Dead: Season 9 (TV, 2018) |
It's a nice change of pace, showing characters that actually communicate with one another - and especially after seasons that so often had people make hasty and dumb decisions without even talking to their friends and allies.‐ ScreenRant

| 100% | Voltron: Legendary Defender: Season 2 (TV, 2017) |
Season 2 introduces new allies to their cause and new alien locales to be explored... the expanded setting benefits the characters, action, and comedy -- the three elements that make up the core appeal of the show.‐ ScreenRant

| 71% | The Flash: Season 4 - Honey, I Shrunk Team Flash (TV Episode) |
Honey, I Shrunk Team Flash manages to make its silly plot not only entertaining but also connected to the season's arc and its villain.‐ ScreenRant

| 57% | The Flash: Season 4 - The Trial of The Flash (TV Episode) |
It's perfunctory at best, with the end result being more important than how the characters arrive there.‐ ScreenRant

| 100% | The Flash: Season 4 - Don't Run (TV Episode) |
Don't Run... brings The Thinker's evil scheme back in to focus, seamlessly connecting the two plots running through this episode with the overall storyline of the season.‐ ScreenRant

| 88% | The Flash: Season 4 - Therefore I Am (TV Episode) |
Therefore I Am does an wonderful job of developing [The Thinker and The Mechanic] as intriguing, almost sympathetic villains.‐ ScreenRant

| 60% | The Flash: Season 4 - Elongated Journey Into Night (TV Episode) |
In the end, it's a pretty inconsequential episode that reveals a real problem with this season... there's been no development given to the villains and their scheming.‐ ScreenRant

| 80% | The Flash: Season 4 - Luck Be a Lady (TV Episode) |
Luck Be A Lady largely follows the tone that's been set by season 4's previous two episodes - keep it light, keep it fun, and embrace the familiar dynamic between the core cast that got viewers on board in the first place.‐ ScreenRant

| 75% | The Flash: Season 4 - The Flash Reborn (TV Episode) |
That this is how the 'Barry in jail' saga wraps up is ridiculous, making this easily one of the dumbest plots The Flash has ever attempted.‐ ScreenRant

| 100% | The Flash: Season 3 - Infantino Street (TV Episode) |
he last five or so minutes of 'Infantino Street' fly by in such a whirlwind, that undoubtedly, fans will be picking it apart for clues at to what could really be going on.‐ ScreenRant

| 90% | The Flash: Season 3 - Finish Line (TV Episode) |
He goes out like a true hero, though, and his sacrifice makes for a far more touching send-off than anyone could have predicted for such a goofy character.‐ ScreenRant

| 80% | The Flash: Season 3 - The Once and Future Flash (TV Episode) |
It's interesting to learn Killer Frost chooses to join Savitar, in part, because he isn't trying to change her.‐ ScreenRant

|
| 70% | The Flash: Season 3 - I Know Who Your Are (TV Episode) |
'I Know Who You Are' is an episode that's mostly concerned with the big reveal coming in its finale minute, and because of this, much of the development for any other subplot feels like an after thought.‐ ScreenRant

| 92% | The Flash: Season 3 - Duet (TV Episode) |
While 'Duet' is most certainly a musical, referencing as many of the genre's tropes as possible, there's also a real fairy tale vibe to this episode.‐ ScreenRant

| 91% | The Flash: Season 3 - The Wrath of Savitar (TV Episode) |
'The Wrath of Savitar' makes a strong case for fear being what "makes us do a lot of things that we shouldn't," as Barry so poignantly puts it.‐ ScreenRant

| 64% | The Flash: Season 3 - Into the Speed Force (TV Episode) |
'Into the Speed Force' manages to balance the big picture narrative with the smaller, interpersonal plots.‐ ScreenRant

| 83% | The Flash: Season 3 - Untouchable (TV Episode) |
The Flash airs on The CW so it's not shocking at all that their bond is taking a romantic angle, but to be fair, this instance feels like it's earned it more than most.‐ ScreenRant

|
| 89% | The Flash: Season 3 - Attack on Gorilla City (TV Episode) |
The effects work on the gorillas was impressive and used sparingly. Plus, it never hurts to fall back on old tricks, like keeping your digital gorillas in shadow.‐ ScreenRant

| 100% | The Flash: Season 3 - Invasion! (TV Episode) |
The Arrowverse has had crossovers in the past, but 'Invasion' is the first to feel like a true team-up.‐ ScreenRant

|
| 100% | The Flash: Season 3 - The Present (TV Episode) |
As mid-season finales go, 'The Present' is a fairly strong one, giving its characters some emotionally heavy material to work through while also setting up the framework for the back half of season 3.‐ ScreenRant

| 90% | The Flash: Season 3 - Shade (TV Episode) |
In what's becoming a trend this season, the titular villain of 'Shade' matters very, very little... but by finally moving forward with a couple of season 3's subplots, the episode gets a pass.‐ ScreenRant

| 70% | The Flash: Season 3 - The New Rogues (TV Episode) |
It will always be a little odd that The Flash chose to introduce Barry to the woman he was destined to fall in love with, by having her be his "adoptive" sister.‐ ScreenRant

| 91% | The Flash: Season 3 - Monster (TV Episode) |
The plot works rather well, giving Caitlin some interesting motivation for what could grow into a something of a villainous turn.‐ ScreenRant

| 75% | The Flash: Season 3 - Flashpoint (TV Episode) |
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

| 93% | 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

| 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

| 81% | 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

| 63% | 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

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

| 35% | 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

|
| 81% | 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
