St. Denis Medical (S2, Ep. 14-15) "Happy Birthday, Matty"/"Everybody Loves Portland General"


The St. Denis staff make birthdays unforgettable, turning patient intake into lively events. This week, we moved from ER halls to the vibrant 'Laser Lounge' to celebrate Portland General's excellence. Despite challenges, the team remains dedicated and fun-loving. Here's my recap of 'Happy Birthday, Matty' and 'Everyone Loves Portland General.'

DMV (S1, Ep. 13) "Test Drive"




Does the world really need another Vic? That is the existential question at the heart of this week's episode. From teaching apathetic teens the "rules of the road" to a Hollywood-style marketing makeover, the East Hollywood branch was anything but boring. Here's my recap and review.

Ghosts (S5, Ep. 12) "The List"


A cloud of white powder erupts from an antique box. Sam and Jay freeze in horror as a reviewer watches their dream of a luxury B&B go up in smoke. Before the episode title appears, chaos at Woodstone is clear: it’s a clash between high-class recognition and an old, illegal stash.

This week, Sam and Jay reach for prestige, but ghosts haunted by old grudges emerge. In "The List," a quest for luxury hotel certification nearly spirals out of control. Here's a recap and some thoughts.

DMV (S1, Ep. 11) "Power Shift"





This week’s DMV explores the fragile egos of public servants when faced with two terrifying things: automation and WNBA legends. Here's a recap and review of DMV "Power Shift."

St. Denis Medical (S2, Ep. 13) "A New Best Friend"

 



Grab your popcorn: "A New Best Friend" earns a glowing 8.5/10 for mixing shameless workplace feuds with heart, making this one of St. Denis Medical’s funniest, most relatable episodes yet. Can your husband be friends with your most narcissistic coworker? For Alex, the answer involves a harebrained scheme and a massive order of grass seeds. Here's my recap and review of "A New Best Friend."

St. Denis Medical (S2, Ep.10–12) "This Is From Joyce"/"Senior Health Fair"/Nod and Agree"

 


The second season of St. Denis Medical truly shows how well the show balances the hectic hospital scenes with hilarious workplace moments that sometimes get a little awkward. Episodes 10 through 12 continue this great mix, blending emotional moments, funny surprises, and some unexpectedly touching interactions between characters. Here's my recap and review. 

St. Denis Medical (S2, Ep. 8-9) "A Waste of Time and Marble"/"You're in His Bubble Space"

 



It all starts with a hospital-wide gasp as Sanderson drops to one knee right in the middle of the ER, catching everyone—especially Joyce—by surprise. This is just the first of several twists in Episodes 8 and 9, where St. Denis Medical pivots from the usual hospital hustle to dive into the staff's personal lives. The heartfelt shift adds new depth to the comedy, especially for characters like Joyce and the ever-complicated Matt and Serena. Here's my quick recap and thoughts.

St. Denis Medical (S2, Ep. 6-7) "I Left A Woman on the Table"/"No Wonder His Kidney Wants Out"



If St. Denis Medical is known for anything, it’s its lively chaos, and Episodes 6 and 7 really dive into the colorful, messy lives behind those hospital scrubs. They also remind us why this wonderful team works so well together. Here's my recap and review.

Ghosts comes back from hiatus with its boldest mythology expansion yet, shaking up the world of Woodstone with the arrival of the mysterious "Others." After a long winter break, the show finally introduces us to these ghosts that Patience has been hinting at. It turns out the Woodstone property is even more crowded than we thought, and one ghost has a very awkward history with the new arrivals. Here's a recap and review.

Riot Women (S1, Ep. 6): A Finale That Earns Its Noise

 


The Season 1 finale of Riot Women doesn’t go for easy triumph. Instead, it delivers something better — catharsis that feels earned.

After a season packed with rage, trauma, and fragile hope, Episode 6 finally brings the band’s personal battles and professional dreams into the same room. And it works. Here's my recap and review.

Riot Women (S1, Ep. 4-5) The High and the Hangover

 


Okay. We need to talk about Episodes 4 and 5 of Riot Women, because together, they feel like one emotional punch followed by the bruise that blooms the next morning.

While episode 4 gives us the moment we’ve been building toward: the band finally stepping onto a real stage, episode 5 reminds us that every act of defiance has consequences. And wow, does this show make us sit in both. Here are my thoughts.

The Cleaner: Scrubbing the Soul of Shropshire

If you haven’t checked out The Cleaner on BritBox, you’re missing a show that somehow makes blood-spatter patterns and industrial-strength mop buckets… philosophical. Here are my thoughts on the series.

Here's my recap and review of the first three episodes of Season 1.

Good Cop/Bad Cop Season 1: A Cozy Procedural With a Not-So-Cozy Secret


If you’ve been craving that very specific kind of “blue sky” TV—the kind that feels like Psych crossed with Northern Exposure—then The CW’s Good Cop/Bad Cop might be exactly what you need right now. Here's my thoughts on the first season.
