Slow Horses Recap: A Bullet Named Poirot (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The first two episodes of the current season were about as dark and sobering as Slow Horses has gotten in its six-season run. Grim developments arise surrounding the death of River’s father figure and the reemergence of his malevolent actual father, Catherine potentially falling back off the wagon, Taverner under attack from far-right conspiracists, and the slight hassle of Russian assassins murdering anyone ever connected with Slough House. The past has become present. The payment on previous s
Dark Matter Recap: Remembrance of Jasons Past (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The thing about the Jason-pocalypse that ended the first season of Dark Matter is that all the Jasons who converged in Jason No. 1’s world, having each embarked on a multidimensional odyssey to get back home, are good and worthy men.

Slow Horses Recap: Fumbling in the Dark (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week’s season-six premiere of Slow Horses focused on the funeral of a major character, David Cartwright, whose tenure at MI5 was important enough to still rattle with ghosts and skeletons from the past.

The questions of who and why are a
Dark Matter Recap: The Wrong Door (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of the lingering flaws with Dark Matter from the beginning is that it hasn’t quite known what to do with Jennifer Connelly, which is a problem because she’s the most famous and accomplished actor in the cast and surely deserves better. Yet the mechanics of the plot have neutralized Connelly, because Daniela has had to sit in the passenger seat while various forms of Jason have been behind the wheel. Daniela mainly reacts to a range of situations that have been foisted upon her because her ow
Slow Horses Season-Premiere Recap: Two Murders and a Funeral (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It takes a bit of squinting to find any genuine sincerity on Slow Horses, which, in the show’s jaundiced point of view, comes with the territory. Whatever higher purpose goes along with espionage work tends to be lost in the gamesmanship and cynicism that seems to come with the territory. This is true of many spy stories, but it’s generally the lifeblood of Slow Horses and its hero, Jackson Lamb, whose affection for his misfit subordinates at Slough House tends to be obscured in the fog of nasty
