20:30 - Coronation Street (ITV)

21:00 - Marvel's Runaways, Season 3 Episode Five 'Enter the Dreamland' (Disney Plus)

22:02 - Invincible, Season 1 Episode Five 'That Actually Hurt' (Amazon Prime)

22:45 - The Simpsons, Season 8 Episode Twelve 'Mountain of Madness' (Disney Plus/All4)

A few new additions to the schedule then. I'm hugely looking forward to the latest Marvel Studios' series 'Loki'; it's a series that looks as though it could have bags of potential, and it also happens to feature one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's most engaging villains in Tom Hiddleston's Loki. Plus there's the promise of seeing Owen Wilson in a Marvel Studios' property, which is a really solid piece of casting.

I am similarly excited to check out ITV's mystery thriller series 'Innocent', a show which I never watched at the time but I have heard great things about. The second series starring Katherine Kelly in particular seemed to garner a great deal of popularity; I will be going back to the first series rather than starting at Series Two, as I'd like to see how the anthology show began first before checking out the more recent episodes. It would seem a shame to skip a significant portion of the show just to see the content that's more recent.

LEGO Masters USA and Batwoman have moved from watching the E4 broadcasts to On-Demand this week, as E4 have bizarrely taken the decision to move both shows from respective slots. LEGO Masters USA now airs Sundays at 8:30pm, whereas Batwoman appears to have moved to a post-midnight slot. E4's treatment of both shows has been very strange as of late, and I'm unsure of their reasoning because they surely couldn't have expected huge audiences for either programme on their channel, but at least we have catch-up services in the modern age to check out the shows at more convenient times, so it's not a big issue all-in-all.

Happy TV viewing!

Your friendly neighbourhood Whovian Sean

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. If everything you thought you knew changed, and you had a different father to who you were led to beli...

REVIEW: WandaVision, Season 1 Episode Seven 'Breaking The Fourth Wall'

 REVIEW: WandaVision, Season 1 Episode Seven 'Breaking The Fourth Wall' Originally published in 2020, here are my thoughts on WandaVision's seventh episode 'Breaking The Fourth Wall'. 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...
