The story follows a reporter, Camille Preaker (played by Adams), as she faces a troubling assignment immediately following a stint at a psych hospital: to return to her hometown to cover the murders of two preteen girls. »
Performer of the Week: Allison Williams
4 hours ago
The Performer | Allison Williams
The Show | Girls
The Episode | “The Panic in Central Park” (March 27, 2016)
The Performance | Girls‘ Marnie Michaels is privileged, selfish and maddeningly self-absorbed. But Allison Williams’ deft, multi-layered performance in last Sunday’s episode — one that focused entirely on her character — reminded us Marnie is also wickedly entertaining and sometimes achingly lost.
The opening three-quarters of “The Panic in Central Park” played like a deluded fairy tale for Marnie, as she stormed out of her apartment after a fight with husband Desi, bumped into ex-boyfriend Charlie and embarked on an adventure littered with red flags and warning signals. »

The Walking Dead Countdown: 10 Most Killer Deaths of Season 6
7 hours ago
We know that somebody’s going to buy the farm in Sunday’s supersized sixth season finale of The Walking Dead (9/8c, AMC). We know it as well as we know that, to kill a walker, you have to aim for the head.
We also know that this one’s going to hurt. Norman Reedus (Daryl) was even kind enough to warn us that the episode is “gut-wrenching.” (Note to self: Keep the barf bucket handy as well as the Kleenex.)

Sleepy Hollow Recap: Say It Ain't So!
18 hours ago
There’s a bunch of important season-finale lead-up in this week’s Sleepy Hollow, but you’ll forgive me if all I can focus on is the seemingly senseless killing of a member of Ichabod and Abbie’s army.
As you might’ve heard by now, Joe Corbin is struck down toward the end of Friday’s episode — by Jenny (!), which we’ll get to in a moment — and suffers a noble, if naked, death on New York’s Bear Mountain.
Yes, dramas need stakes. Yes, it’s naïve to think that a literal battle to save the world won’t have casualties. »

Warning: This post contains a major spoiler for Friday’s Sleepy Hollow.
The member of the Sleepy Hollow ensemble who appeared to have died in Friday’s episode really did, says the actor who played him: Joe Corbin is no longer of this world, and portrayer Zach Appelman is no longer with the Fox supernatural drama.
Update: Late Friday, a Fox rep told TVLine that Episode 17 is not Appelman’s last episode of the season, implying he will appear in some form in next week’s finale.

Sadly, this week’s episode bid adieu to everyone’s favorite heretic couple; with the Armory’s poison running through Mary Louise’s veins and Nora freshly marked with one of Rayna’s trademark tats, the ladies used their final moments on Earth to blow up the hell stone — and themselves along with it.

Emmys 2016: People v. O.J. Simpson Mystery Solved — Who Are the Leads?

If the category fits, you shall compete in it…?
Before and after this Wednesday’s New York City screening of The People v. O.J. Simpson‘s finale (airing April 6), there was much chatter among the press about how FX might divvy up its freshman anthology series’ across-the-board impressive cast when it comes to the Primetime Emmy Awards’ lead and supporting races.

Outlander Season 2: Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan Dish About Claire's New Enemy, the Sex Scene They 'Fought For'
1 April 2016 2:12 PM, PDT
Sam Heughan missed his kilt.
The longing is understandable. After all, the Outlander star spent most of the Starz drama’s first season running around the Scottish highlands in Jamie Fraser’s airy ensemble, and those kind of threads can grow on a guy.
Season 2, which premieres April 9 (9/8c), plucks Jamie and his time-traveling wife Claire from Scotland’s rough countryside and sets them down in Paris, where they’ll work to thwart a royal-wannabe’s doomed play for the British throne.
