The Americans – “New Car” Review. How Far Would You Go?
While “New Car” exhibits Philip’s (Matthew Rhys) love for many things American, it also reaffirms his hatred for America when he learns the Americans planted the propeller plans he and Elizabeth (Keri Russell) stole last week in “Arpanet,” which led to the deaths of 180 Russian men aboard a submarine. In the meantime, despite Martha (Alison Wright) telling Clark/Philip “everything is great” between them, she attempts to throw a monkey wrench into the works concerning her job. She has no idea that what she’s asking Clark to do may very well signal the end of their marriage unless Clark can find a way to dissuade her. “New Car” deals with loyalty—to countries and people you love.

Fargo Season Premiere – “The Crocodile’s Dilemma” Review. You Betcha.
It has been years since I saw the film Fargo and the only things I really remember about it is a scene that took place at the parking ramp of the church I attended — the infamous wood chipper scene — and, of course, the so-called Minnesota accents. When FX sent me screeners of the first four episodes of Fargo, I decided to re-watch the film first to refresh my memory. The series isn’t a remake or a reboot of the movie, and it’s not necessary to see the movie to follow the series.

Years of Living Dangerously Series Premiere: “Dry Season” Recap – Global Warming Is Real?
Even if you don’t believe in climate change — even if you are religious and believe the weather is an act of God —Years of Living Dangerously provides enough information for you to choose from to do with it what you will. What I like about Years of Living Dangerously is it doesn’t preach to you; it doesn’t shout at you (figuratively) and it doesn’t berate you. The purpose of this docu-series intends to open the doors to communication, to learn, and understand what these scientists are discovering about our planet.
