There's a couple of returning shows here that I am really looking forward to. In For A Penny is always a good laugh, with games remind me considerably of the much-loved Britain's Got Talent spin-off Britain's Got More Talent, and I was impressed with Batwoman's first season last year. I'm intrigued to see how new Batwoman Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) compares to Kate Kane (Ruby Rose). It will certainly take some adjustment to see a new person take over the mantle so soon, that's for sure.

REVIEW: Bates Motel, Season 2 Episode Four 'Check-Out'

 REVIEW: Bates Motel, Season 2 Episode Four 'Check-Out' The revelations at the end of the previous episode were quite a shock to the Bates family tree, to say the least. Dylan (Max Thieriot), it seems, was the product of a rape - and not any old rape, but a rape which occurred between brother and sister. This episode picks up with the ramifications from such a reveal, in what is a very character focused episode of Bates Motel. Poor Dylan. He's had this major reveal about his parentage thrown on him, and it doesn't seem as though he has been coping at all. Dylan's been on the booze, and when Norman (Freddie Highmore) and Norma (Vera Farmiga) find him, he's in quite a state. Check-Out is a real showcase for the character of Dylan; it develops his character significantly, and poses some interesting questions regarding this new status quo he has found himself in.

This episode brings us up to date, with Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) now giving us her take on a modern sitcom. This version of WandaVision feels like a combination of Modern Family and The Office , with - as the title suggests - lots of the typical fourth wall breaking that you would expect of this mockumentary style. As with the other sitcom episodes, it's just so funny too. The comedy really lands, with so many moments that make you laugh out loud. One of my personal favourite gags from Modern Day WandaVision was the glitchy magic with the kids' game controllers. Seeingtey their controllers going from the modern PlayStation-style to the N64, and then to the Atari joystick, before landing on a pack of UNO playing cards just really made me chuckle. As did the hilarity of...
