First episode impressions: ‘The Last Man on Earth’ (TV review)

March 4, 2015April 19, 2021 John Hansen Television

It would be awesome to be the last man on Earth, and the first of the two half-hour premiere episodes of “The Last Man on Earth” (8 p.m. Central Sundays on Fox) demonstrate why. Phil Miller (Will […]

After 10 episodes, let’s check in on ‘Gotham’s’ rogues gallery

November 25, 2014May 11, 2023 John Hansen Batman/Gotham

TV commentary: “Gotham” may not have a full-grown Batman, but it definitely has villains.

With 2 episodes left … whodunit on ‘Gracepoint?’ (TV commentary)

November 22, 2014April 19, 2021 John Hansen Television

With just two episodes left on “Gracepoint” (8 p.m. Central Thursdays on Fox), it seems like a good time to revisit the question I posed earlier in the 10-episode run: Who killed Danny Solano? As with my […]

‘Gracepoint’s’ ‘Who killed Danny Solano?’ not quite as fun as ‘Who killed Rosie Larsen?,’ but still fun (TV commentary)

October 18, 2014April 19, 2021 John Hansen Television

“Gracepoint” (8 p.m. Central Thursdays on Fox) is not in the same league as “The Killing.” But as it invites us to uncover “Who killed Danny Solano?,” it is tapping into some of the “Who killed […]

‘Gotham’ thrillingly brings Bat-verse back to live-action TV

September 23, 2014May 11, 2023 John Hansen Batman/Gotham

First episode impressions: ‘24: Live Another Day’ (TV review)

May 7, 2014April 16, 2021 John Hansen 24

“24: Live Another Day” (8 p.m. Central Mondays on Fox) comes along four years after the eighth season, but Kiefer Sutherland and Mary Lynn Rajskub slip back into their iconic characters of Jack Bauer and Chloe […]

Sci-fi showdown: ‘Almost Human’ vs. ‘Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ (TV commentary)

February 6, 2014April 17, 2021 John Hansen Marvel Cinematic Universe

With Fox’s “Almost Human” and ABC’s “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” both at about the halfway point of the season, I thought it’d be fun to pit the two most-hyped new sci-fi law enforcement shows against each other in a […]

Shows set in past, future can illuminate present – if they dare (TV commentary)

January 12, 2014April 19, 2021 John Hansen Television

Awhile back, I engaged in a chicken-or-egg-style argument with a co-worker about mid-20th-century civil rights legislation: Were the laws piggybacking on public sentiment, or did they shape public sentiment? The more I think about it, […]

First episode impressions: ‘Almost Human’ (TV review)

November 19, 2013April 19, 2021 John Hansen Television

I decided to wait until after the second episode to give my impressions of “Almost Human” (7 p.m. Central Mondays on Fox), because Sunday’s pilot was simultaneously confusing and lacking in new (or even new-ish) ideas. Fox’s […]

First episode impressions: ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ (TV review)

September 18, 2013April 16, 2021 John Hansen Brooklyn Nine-Nine

“Brooklyn Nine-Nine” (7:30 p.m. Central Tuesdays on Fox) has an all-crazy all-the-time vibe that makes it a nice companion to the similarly off-the-wall “New Girl” and “The Mindy Project” in Fox’s Tuesday comedy lineup. Although it’s […]
