Batwoman is back, but not as we remember her. With Kate Kane missing, Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) must don the Bat-suit and protect Gotham City against the many villains who are determined to destroy it. It’s just one episode, but I already love this new hero and the trajectory for the second season.
Review: Star Trek Discovery’s “There Is A Tide…”
In my review of last week’s episode of Star Trek Discovery, I complained that Osyraa’s (Janet Kidder) motivations were unclear. She leads the Emerald Chain, overseeing a mercantile trading system spread throughout the universe. She uses slaves, violence, and other unsavory tactics to keep control of planets under her command.

On this season of Star Trek: Discovery, the ship has been visiting the home worlds of each of the crew members and seeing what they’re up to in the 31st century. This week though, we’re revisiting not only a familiar planet, but a familiar universe, and as such it’s a two-part arc. We also escape…
Review: Star Trek Discovery’s “Unification III” Connects The Dots & Pays Homage To Spock
Star Trek: Discovery’s latest episode, “Unification III,” is a sequel to a 1991 Next Generation two-parter and a continuation of a more recent Picard storyline. The episode makes some surprising choices that don’t always land, but it swings hard and hits where it counts.
Review: Star Trek Discovery’s “Scavengers” Treads Water
In Star Trek: Discovery’s newest episode, Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) teams up with Georgiou (Michelle Yeoh) to save Book (David Ajala) and search for more information about the cause of the Burn. It’s a fun romp but none of the characters feel challenged, and the viewers don’t learn anything new. “Scavengers” provides many fun character…
Review: Star Trek Discovery’s “Die Trying” Tries and Dies
Discovery’s “Die Trying” provides all kinds of fun easter eggs and connective tissue for both the Star Trek franchise and Discovery, but unfortunately it fails at telling a cohesive story.

Review: Star Trek Discovery’s “People of Earth” Reflects 2020 Concerns
Discovery continues to become more conventionally Star Trek while also pushing boundaries for the franchise. More than ever though, Discovery reflects and comments on contemporary society in “People of Earth.”
Review: “That Hope Is You, Part 1” Is Where No Trek Has Gone Before
At the end of last season’s finale, Michael Burnham and the crew of the Discovery are sent forward in time 930 years in the future. This marks a major turning point for both Discovery and the Star Trek franchise, paving new ground and boldly going where no Trek has gone before. This premiere’s “soft reboot”…
