By the time Boston Blue reaches Season 1 Episode 9, it’s done playing nice. “Collateral Damage” is the hour where simmering tensions finally boil over, personal choices become professional landmines and the show leans fully into what it wants to be: a character-driven cop drama that isn’t afraid to get messy. And messy it gets. If you’ve been waiting for Boston Blue to raise the emotional stakes, this is the episode that delivers, sometimes with a punch, sometimes with a wi

Sheriff Country Season 1 Episode 8 "Death & Taxes" Recap
If there’s one thing Sheriff Country loves almost as much as small-town angst and complicated relationships, it’s legal weed growers in peril. Season 1 Episode 8, “Death & Taxes,” leans hard into that familiar territory, delivering a case that’s tense on paper but emotionally uneven in execution. The result is an episode that’s watchable, occasionally sharp, but ultimately lands squarely in “mid” territory, saved mostly by character moments and a few fun (if slightly ridicul
