Since the premiere of Miss Scarlet & The Duke and All Creatures Great & Small back to back in the winter of 2021, PBS has tried to find a series that would cap off the cold January nights at 10 p.m. to fit the mood. Vienna Blood, a period

Annika has always had daddy issues hovering in the background of the series since the series began, an odd choice considering it's a series centered around a female police detective and her daughter. But men aren't the only ones who have issues with their fathers, and

This week's World on Fire actually starts in France, but for continuity's sake, we'll discuss Libya first and then backtrack since most of the season has led off with North Africa. Also, like in France, things are pretty dire. The British soldiers are on

Poor Rose! I know I haven’t been exactly sympathetic towards her in these Hotel Portofino recaps. But you would have to have a heart made of stone to not feel for Rose in “Subterfuges.” She dons a sexy negligee and begins to seduce Lucian and tries to ...how do

The Great British Baking Show may have managed to stay popular despite moving to Netflix and changing out judges to Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith. However, fans wistfully sigh for OG judge Mary Berry when the series returns every year and ask what she's up to. The answer

World on Fire’s Season 2 mid-point picks up in Libya, where Harry rejoins his regiment. The Seige of Tobruk is getting dire, with control of Alexandria and Suez and supply routes to Britain at stake, and Churchill himself has ordered that positions must be held. Captain Briggs orders Harry

Well, well, well, it seems like Cecil might finally (finally!) get his comeuppance in this week’s Hotel Portofino. Our not-so-favorite snake in the grass has gotten himself into quite a predicament. His Italian business partners from Detroit (a nice euphemism for the mafia) are tired of waiting for their

Annika picks up not quite two weeks after last week's disastrous open-mic experience. Honestly, I'm not sure what Annika thinks she's doing. The obvious answer is opening a deck chair on the roof to enjoy an ice cream, but it's all gone

We return to World on Fire as the war in North Africa rages. A wounded Harry is sent to the hospital in Cairo while Stan joins Rajib and his men in retreat. It’s an awkward situation, as the British army practices an “equal but different” policy, leaving Stan uncomfortable

We didn’t really think Nish would die, did we? (I’ll admit I was slightly nervous. This is, after all, the same network that killed off Lady Sybil in Downton Abbey.) Thankfully, almost immediately, we see Nish peeking out in the back of a wagon. Eventually, it’s revealed
