B6B: TV REVIEW: Westworld – Season 3 Premiere

By JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – March 15, 2020) I know it’s been well over a year since Season 2, but I hope I’m not the only one that finished up a tension-filled, but cumbersome and confusing premiere wondering exactly what show I just watched. I wasn’t un-entertained, I was just left baffled. The series I…more

B6B: TV REVIEW: The Outsider – Season Finale

By JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – March 9, 2020) EPISODE 10: MUST/CAN’T What a fun, incredibly well executed limited series this turned out to be. I enjoyed The Outsider more than I did Price’s The Night Of, which was also strong, and it joins Watchmen as two exceptional one and done (well, we assume so, but…more

B6B: TV REVIEW: The Outsider – Episodes 7 & 8

By JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – February 24, 2020) I know you were probably wondering where last week’s piece was, and with good reason, as it’s certainly a fair question. Here’s the answer. HBO stopped giving out episodes early following the first six, which then meant critics couldn’t see the installments in advance and had to…more

B6B: TV REVIEW: The Outsider – Episode 6

By JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – February 9, 2020) EPISODE 6: THE ONE WITH THE YIDDISH VAMPIRE The very end of the episode was predictable and was set-up throughout, but outside of that particular sequence, which was full-on tension and one heck of a cliffhanger, it was an episode that actually felt like a bit of…more

B6B: TV REVIEW: The Outsider – Episode 5

By JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – January 31, 2020) EPISODE 5: TEAR-DRINKER “Tell him to stop.” This brings me right back to Eddie Murphy’s classic Delirious special, talking of Poltergeist and the “get out” reaction from his family. “Too bad we can’t stay.” Pretty much. When Jeannie Anderson has that moment in her home in the…more

B6B: TV REVIEW: The Outsider – Episode 4

By JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – January 27, 2020) EPISODE 4: QUE VIERE EL COCO The Outsider is compelling. It’s a very good show. Usually when you read a sentence like that, there’s a “but” in the vicinity. Nope. I’m enjoying it. I thought it fitting to write bluntly and in quick strike fashion, matching Holly…more

JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – January 19, 2019) Whatever might be ailing you, all you have to remember and tell yourself is, “At least I’m not Jack Hoskins.” All the alcohol in the world doesn’t even appear to phase whatever various stab wounds the invisible man created in the back of his neck.” He’s in pain…more

B6B: TV REVIEW: The Outsider – Episode 2

By JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – January 19, 2020) So… Terry Maitland didn’t do it after all, I guess. I got that part right, but went a little too far with reading into things, which can happen in a series opener. The end of the first episode turned out to mean basically nothing at all, which…more

B6B: TV REVIEW: The Outsider – Episode 1

By JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – January 15, 2020) Sometimes, I’m not sure whether a series is going to find the right niche for a weekly cover, because as much as sometimes I WANT to cover something, the audience isn’t there for it, so I then just say something like, “Lodge 49 is such a good…more

B6B: WATCHMEN: Episode 8 Review

By JASON MARTIN (@JMartZone – December 8, 2019) All I was worried about with Watchmen following last week’s outstanding episode and the prior week’s incredible story… was tying Adrian Veidt into the larger plot. His scenes and scenarios were wild and outlandish, but what was their purpose, where was he, and would we ever get…more
