Sherlock: The Abominable Bride (2016)
Season 4, Episode 0
9/10
Back With Bang......
2 January 2016
Sherlock is back and it does well, actually really well, beyond the expectations. From the starting, we're dropped right into the action. It picks up the same pace as Benedict Cumber batch's Sherlock starts making deductions. His performance is undoubtedly the best feature of show. The 19th century setting sets a beautiful stage for an exhilarating, thrilling and seemed to be an impossible case. But even after having an unsolvable case in an anachronism scenario, the chemistry between Watson and Sherlock stands out. It's their failed attempts to understand each other (This time Sherlock tries, too to understand Watson) makes the episode a must watch.

The dialogues were ingenious. "Because it's never twins, Watson", "The shadows of our past defines our sunny day", "Come at once, if convenient ……." And many more. "The Abominable bride" is a crafty work of brilliant writers. It is thrilling, funny, delightful, extraordinary and a masterpiece. No less than, what should be an ideal Sherlock Holmes' Episode?

The Last Kingdom: Episode #1.8 (2015)
Season 1, Episode 8
9/10
An Epic Conclusion.......
29 November 2015
This episode will leave you wanting for more. It is gruesome,violent and most importantly keeps you engaged for full 54 mins. It is an epic end to the first season.The episode moves at a considerable fast pace than the others. The end battle sequence were as bloody as they gets , there is one scene that will literally blow your mind. The ending is quite justifiable and somewhat predictable. However ,it doesn't concludes all the stories it begun with, which gives some hope that there will be second season.It is great fun to watch. Great Dialogues,incredible acting, beautiful locations ,makes this episode a huge finale.......

The Walking Dead: Heads Up (2015)
Season 6, Episode 7
9/10
TWD is back on track....
23 November 2015
With this episode,The Walking Dead is back on the track with the same momentum ,it started this season. With one episode left for this year,"Heads up" sets the stage for the half season finale in the last minutes along with putting a full stop to much hyped mystery of ,you know who?

It drags in the middle just for some bits. Buts picks up very quickly. Enid's position is explained. Why she always kept running away, it gives you some insight why she keeps doing that. Morgan trying to adjust in this world with his agenda "All life is precious ". The dialogues of Morgan are in excellent harmony.It was all so interesting.

What kills the episode are the very first 30 seconds and the last 30 seconds. One puts a stop to the biggest hype TWD has able to create and the other makes you equally ache for the next episode because everything is about to come down in a very horrible fashion!!!

The Walking Dead: Now (2015)
Season 6, Episode 5
8/10
"Now"
9 November 2015
Warning: Spoilers
"Now" was a disappointment. It looks like it doesn't even tries to hold the viewers attention.This episode was supposed to give us some answers as to ,How Rick will survive the zombie herd? Did Glenn survived? Okay,Glenn part is far fetched,it still hurts, but about others Daryl,Sasha and Abraham. It starts with Rick running towards the gate, shouting and screaming ,with half of the zombie herd from the pilot behind his back. (That was the best scene of the episode)

The episode stumbles on many occasions, First of all It focused on Alexandrians people who are still "learning" to adjust in this new world. When Jessie says "This is what life looks now",I mean seriously.It has been 5 seasons.

No one cares about these people because they are not (yet) strong or at the very least likable, plus the leadership card ,it is becoming so over rated in TWD. Be done with it.

With Maggie erasing Glenn's name off that wall and her revelation of her being pregnant, gives you some kind of hope that somehow Glenn is alive. But lets face it, Glenn is not coming back , at least not like the way he went. Anyway, she makes her peace with Glenn gone accepting the fact that she may have to live without knowing what actually happened wrong.That was something beautiful and brave.It is tragic for us, because she has made her peace only means that Glenn is not coming soon ,he is very far away.

The only other thing that helps this episode to stand on its own were the previous four episodes,they all have been so much powerful. They gives us a lot to go on, even for this episode. Only digestible to the hardcore "TWD" fans.
