Daredevil Season 2 Episode 12 Review – ‘The Dark At The End of The Tunnel’
Martin Carr reviews the twelfth episode of Daredevil season 2… If Fisk owned episode ten and eleven belonged to Castle then episode twelve, or ‘The Dark At The End This Tunnel’ feels strangely average.

Better Call Saul Season 2 Episode 6 Review – ‘Bali Ha’i’
Martin Carr reviews the sixth episode of Better Call Saul Season 2… I’ll be honest this reviewer is not up to speed with Better Call Saul. Now before the diehards start getting upset let me just say that I did watch Breaking Bad religiously. Like a vast majority of the population it drew me in […]
