Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― It is often said - or, at least I often say - that if classic mystery is whodunnit, classic science fiction is whatdunnit. In last night's episode 1.18 of Revolution - which just keeps getting better and better - we get both: a classic whodunnit ...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― Another excellent episode of The Borgias on Sunday - 3.6 - in which Caterina Sforza is revealed to be even more evil than we thought, certainly more evil than Rodrigo. ∙ Her latest plan to cleanse Italy of the Borgias is to get the black...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― The season 1 finale of Rectify on Sundance last night - and a short, intensely powerful season it was, just six episodes of anvil to the brain that penetrated to the bone and the soul - was powerful and oddly anti-climatic at the same time, which...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― There's always at least one insane show on Mad Men, sometimes two, in which all hell breaks loose to the point where you and the characters don't know who's dreaming what, or if it's really a dream at all. This is one of Matthew Weiner's ...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― The proper relationship of the government and the press in a country such as ours that is governed by the First Amendment should be just this: the government should answer or not answer any questions put to it by the press. Period. ∙...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― As I indicated in my review of the excellent Revolution 1.15 a few weeks back, the introduction of the nanite technology as the motivation for Rachel was a top-notch science fictional move. I was therefore glad to see the nanites put to further ...
Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― The penultimate episode of the debut season of Rectify on Sundance - yep, the season is a total of just six episodes - was more moody, introspective, philosophic, even spiritual than usual, but with a wallop of a punch at the end that just might...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― You don't often see the better qualities in human beings on Game of Thrones. Last year, we saw some of this in Tyrion. Last night in episode 3.7 we saw it in his brother Jaime. ∙ Jaime's devotion to Brienne has been building steadily this...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― Well, nothing is uncomplicated when it comes to sex and love on The Borgias, but in last night's episode 3.5 we finally see Cesare, whose amorous relationship with his sister Lucrezia has been the most complicated of all, in bed in a relatively...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― It occurred to me, watching the superb Mad Men 6.7 tonight - right after Mr. Selfridge on Masterpiece Theater - that for people who weren't cognizant in the 1960s, watching Mad Men must be not much different than watching Mr. Selfridge, which ...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― My wife and I saw the first four episodes of Rectify on the Sundance Channel last night, and found it one of the most extraordinary reels of television to come down the pike in years. ∙ The basic story is about the release of Daniel Holden...

Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress ― A tight, taught, altogether excellent episode 1.16 of Revolution tonight, which has been getting better by the episode since it returned from its hiatus. Even the Rachel and Aaron thread was riveting - which I'll get to in a minute - and the show ...
