Recap: 9-1-1 Nashville Is Already Repeating Itself And We're Only on Episode 2
9-1-1 Nashville continues to bring the thunder in Episode 2, “Hell and High Water,” but not everything’s striking the way it should.

Matlock Season 2 Episode 2: “Another Matlock” Delivers a Gripping Showdown
Wow. This episode of Matlock was phenomenal and definitely one of my favorite so far in the series. I think all of the characters got their fair share of screentime & we are finally seeing things reach their breaking points. One of my key highlights is the same as Episode 1, Matty & Olympia’s relationship. We see them in this episode playing games with each other, it’s very much a push and pull situation. I think this is truly where Skye and Kathy are going to shine this sea
