After ending on a cliffhanger last season, 12 Monkeys picks up where it left off for its second season. Smartly written with some outstanding episodes, Season 2 is everything you could ask for in a follow up. The characters are more complex this time around with interesting arcs. There’s a good use of humour too that isn’t overbearing and is just enough to lighten the darker feel this season has compared to last year....

A Harrowing Re-Telling Of Norwegian History Based on a true story, 22 July is a harrowing retelling of the terrorist attack that consumed Norway and left the country shocked to its core. With a muted colour palette and an exhaustive run time, 22 July makes for a difficult watch, one that doesn’t shy away from the hard-hitting, uncomfortable brutality of the mass murders. Unfortunately the film does feel overlong, distracting viewers with its questionable decision to make the actors speak in English rather than their own native Norwegian tongue....

If you’ve finished playing Guitar Hero and are looking for alternatives – fret not! We’ve combed through the archives and saved you the hassle with our top 8 picks....

Get Ready For The Next Battle! Street Fighter is to Capcom, what Tekken is to Bandai Namco. It’s the latter company’s staple fighting game franchise. It features well-developed characters like Heihachi Mishima to goofy and off-the-wall characters like Panda (who is a literal panda bear). It also has a growing and grand competitive scene and fan base. Therefore, if you’ve finished any of the Tekken games and are looking for alternatives – fret not!...

We Need to Talk Now that Sol-I knows Heon did not write that he likes her, it’s obvious who did as episode 9 of A Love So Beautiful begins. At school, Se-Hyeong blames her lack of spark on constipation. He’s such a card. She’s too listless to even argue with him until he asks if it’s a lover’s quarrel with Dae-Sung – who just happens to show up. Conveniently, Se-Hyeong’s words get him....

Mi-Do Returns Abyss is a tough show to nail down. There’s times where I really like the concept and idea of this one, with multiple plot twists and revelations keeping things feeling fresh and unique. Other times Abyss’ lack of explanation over key plot points and a disregard for mentioning some of the past events (just who were the two mysterious people in the opening episode?) make it a tough one to recommend without seeing the full picture first....

The show will tell the story of the people who work behind the scenes in this industry, their struggles, dreams and the force that drives them in this cut-throat industry.

The Duel Episode 4 of Alchemy of Souls starts in the past once more with Jang Gang forced to bear the truth.

The Battle Lines Are Drawn After the events of the previous episode, American Gods picks up with a brief change of pace in the form of a prologue segment involving a young Asian boy. With a childhood revolving around a heady mix of video games and playing the piano, we see him grow through the years with both of these passions remaining a mainstay in his life. As the boy grows into a man, these two ventures blend into one as he works as a programmer, creating a synthesized, artificial intelligence that creates classical music on the fly....

Episode Guide Episode 1 Episode 2 Episode 3 Episode 4 Episode 5 Episode 6 Anatomy of a Scandal could have been a big hit. Drawing inspiration from A Very English Scandal and (whether intentionally or not) Matt Hancock’s sordid affair, Netflix’s latest 6-episode romp is a light, breezy watch – which is a shame given the subject material being explored. Scandal blends a court room drama with a light mystery and heavy themes around sexual assault....

Wellspring Episode 2 of Archive 81 starts with Dan spooked but trying to remain composed as he continues to recover the tapes. The latest involves a pretty ominous meeting with a medium called Beatriz. Beatriz reveals to Melody that the residents here are very weird, admitting she too has been hearing noises at night. Specifically, she’s hearing moaning and chalks it up to a midnight sex club that takes place upstairs....

Aden takes off, abandoning Dara and choosing Melek inside. Melek predictably stirs things up, telling the girl that this is their chance to hit humanity back in the weak spot. Aden needs to show what she’s capable of – and that comes from a display of power....

Wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle Clichés in movies have been a mainstay – and a well-worn trope – since the early days of cinema and it’s only getting worse. Modern cinema is so dumbed down and meticulously crafted now that many people have shifted to exploring the broader horizons of the big and small screen. There’s a reason why Squid Game, Parasite and La Casa De Papel have been such massive successes in recent years....

Savagery Episode 14 of Attack On Titan Season 4 begins with Eren arriving, scaring Gabi as she sits wide-eyed and shocked. Armin and Mikasa aren’t that phased though and they question their friend over whether he’s joined Zeke or not. Eren doesn’t outright answer them, but does tell the pair that he’s free now. Mikasa tries to talk some sense into him, bringing up the scarf he gave her as a sign of friendship....
