12 Monkeys, based on the film of the same name, is a puzzling time travel mystery thriller.

Man In the High Castle is already buzzing as the only new Amazon pilot worth checking out. It is based on the novel by Philip K.

Man In the High Castle is his alternate history exploration of a Nazi-conquered America divided and controlled by Germany in the East and Japan in the West. The story follows a resistance movement in the '60s, and takes a few liberties with characters from the novel, though their primary arcs remain intact. More

Here we are at the end of another season of Doctor Who, and all things considered the series has moved pretty far in the last 12 weeks. We're quite comfortable with Peter Capaldi in the TARDIS at this point, and showrunner Steven Moffat has made good on his promise to take the show to darker places. More
