Life: Season 2 (2008) 86% EDIT “The pleasure of Life is in watching Damien Lewis do his thing. Crews is the most unique cop on tv now that Vic Mackey has left the scene, and he deserves to keep solving cases.” – PopMatters Sep 19, 2018 Full Review Gracepoint: Season 1 (2014) 65% 7/10 EDIT “It poses challenges for viewers, and for that, we can commend it.” – PopMatters Oct 2, 2014 Full Review Scorpion: Season 1 (2014) 42% 5/10 EDIT “Scorpion lacks convincing characters: Walter, Happy, and especially Sylvester offer nothing beyond their areas of specialization as a means to identify them.” – PopMatters Sep 22, 2014 Full Review Hostages: Season 1 (2013) 56% 4/10 EDIT “Hell, Prison Break managed to wring four seasons of ridiculous, pulpy fun out of a narrative dead end. But Hostages starts from a premise even more constrained and takes itself far more seriously.” – PopMatters Sep 23, 2013 Full Review Sleepy Hollow: Season 1 (2013) 74% 6/10 EDIT “The premiere episode of Sleepy Hollow is far more fun than it has any right to be.” – PopMatters Sep 16, 2013 Full Review Falling Skies: Season 3 (2013) 77% 6/10 EDIT “It's when the show slows down for conversations that it runs into problems, getting bogged down in soapy drama and sci-fi tropes.” – PopMatters Jun 9, 2013 Full Review Bunheads: Season 1 (2012) 100% 7/10 EDIT “If these first two episodes are any indication, Bunheads is finding its strengths. Foster is hugely appealing and Bishop is great whenever she gets solid material.” – PopMatters Jan 7, 2013 Full Review American Horror Story: Season 2 (2012) 84% 6/10 EDIT “It helps too that the new cast appears to be so tight.” – PopMatters Oct 17, 2012 Full Review The Mindy Project: Season 1 (2012) 81% 5/10 EDIT “It just needs sharper writing, and the supporting cast needs to be developed.” – PopMatters Sep 25, 2012 Full Review Ben and Kate: Season 1 (2012) 73% 6/10 EDIT “What the first episode doesn't do well is establish the supporting characters.” – PopMatters Sep 25, 2012 Full Review Revolution: Season 1 (2012) 55% 6/10 EDIT “It doesn't feel very special.” – PopMatters Sep 17, 2012 Full Review Copper: Season 1 (2012) 63% 7/10 EDIT “Haunting images help to make Coppermore complex and compelling than the usual American police procedural.” – PopMatters Aug 19, 2012 Full Review Animal Practice: Season 1 (2012) 17% 3/10 EDIT “Animal Practice seems to know exactly what it wants to do, it just isn't any good at it.” – PopMatters Aug 12, 2012 Full Review Unsupervised: Season 1 (2012) 28% 4/10 EDIT “Unsupervised appears content to amble along, reiterating what we've seen before” – PopMatters Jan 19, 2012 Full Review Alcatraz: Season 1 (2012) 60% 6/10 EDIT “Alcatraz is a middling show. It needs to improve quickly.” – PopMatters Jan 16, 2012 Full Review Person of Interest: Season 1 (2011) 63% 6/10 EDIT “The show only feels truly energized when Emerson is on the screen.” – PopMatters Sep 22, 2011 Full Review Archer: Season 3 (2011) 91% 7/10 EDIT “If the first four episodes of Season Three are any indication, this could be Archer's best season yet.” – PopMatters Sep 15, 2011 Full Review Sons of Anarchy: Season 4 (2011) 100% 7/10 EDIT “So far, there's no indication that there's enough brewing here to measure up to Season Two, but the show seems to be solidly back on track after the problems of Season Three.” – PopMatters Sep 6, 2011 Full Review Leverage: Season 4 (2011) 100% 6/10 EDIT “We can hope that Season Four will offer variety in both locations and plots.” – PopMatters Jun 26, 2011 Full Review Falling Skies: Season 1 (2011) 81% 7/10 EDIT “Falling Skies' mix of compelling individuals helps to make its early use of formula less troublesome than it might have been.” – PopMatters Jun 19, 2011 Full Review Primeval: Season 5 (2011) 6/10 EDIT “There's enough action-packed monster fighting to keep the show exciting, the character development is solid, and the cerebral overarching plot will keep sci-fi fans interested.” – PopMatters May 24, 2011 Full Review Game of Thrones: Season 1 (2011) 90% 9/10 EDIT “This is HBO's best dramatic series since The Wire and The Sopranos, hands down.” – PopMatters Apr 17, 2011 Full Review Breaking In: Season 1 (2011) 56% 4/10 EDIT “If Christian Slater has proved anything over the past few years, it's that he can't draw a television audience.” – PopMatters Apr 6, 2011 Full Review The Chicago Code: Season 1 (2011) 100% 6/10 EDIT “The Chicago Code appears to be aiming for a heady mix of action and political drama, and it mostly works” – PopMatters Feb 7, 2011 Full Review Human Target: Season 2 (2010) 88% 7/10 EDIT “Human Target will never be mistaken for a great, complex or provocative show, but it does provide a consistently fun hour of action.” – PopMatters Nov 17, 2010 Full Review
