Justified – “Burned” Review. Snakes and Surprises.
Just when I thought I had it all figured out, the writers blow me out of the water with a couple of new twists I didn’t see coming. I’ve been wondering why certain characters from seasons past have been reintroduced this season—for example,, the cunning teen pot queen Loretta McCready (Kaitlyn Dever). After watching “Burned,” the plot points of buying up land and the legalized marijuana story lines finally make more sense. But Avery Markham (Sam Elliott), a few men down after what happened in “Alive Day” and “Dark As a Dungeon,” enlists the help of one his Colorado guys to help out in Harlan. Let’s just say, I wouldn’t want to cross paths with or be the object of Boon’s (guest star Jonathan Tucker) eye, ever.

Never underestimate the kind of punch Black Sails can deliver in an episode, especially if it is anything like “XVI.” As the latest installment of the dramatic pirate series, “XVI” is methodical with its storytelling; it begins gradually but escalates quickly to a series of violent and disturbing conclusions.

TV News: Smithsonian Channel Set to Premiere Docu-Series Boomtowners April 26
The oil boom that has been drawing thousands of workers to the Bakken shale region of North Dakota and Montana is the subject of a new Smithsonian Channel docu-series. BOOMTOWNERS, comprised of six one-hour episodes, will debut Sunday, April 26 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT. The series chronicles the daily lives of people who live and work in the Bakken region, the epicenter of the area’s oil boom. Oil was originally discovered in the area in 1951, but the recent development of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, has rapidly transformed the Bakken into one of the world’s leading oil-producing regions. Since 2010, when the boom began, production has grown to over one million barrels of oil a day, which has led to lower gas prices in the United States.

The Americans – “Walter Taffet” Retrospective. The Best Laid Plans.
As a first-time director of The Americans, Emmerich does a fantastic job with “Walter Taffet.” Wisely, he puts himself in only a few scenes so he can concentrate on the job at hand. With terrific editing and superior acting, “Walter Taffet” is the episode I’ve been waiting for. It has plenty of suspense and intrigue, and even a bit of humor (“Hi, honey!”).

Justified – “Dark As a Dungeon” Recap. Old Ghosts and New Temptations.
If saying I’m flummoxed would cover it, I would, but I’m beyond that now. I know I’ve said I’m intrigued by the capricious nature of the final season of Justified; however, some of the story lines are becoming a bit too convoluted. While I appreciate chasing down clues in “Dark As a Dungeon,” I’m not quite sure what is a clue and what isn’t. Needless to say, if you want unpredictability, you definitely get it in this episode.
