In keeping with the longstanding tradition of characters reading a book or watching a movie that not-so-subtly foreshadows upcoming events, high school English teacher Travis Manawa is teaching his students To Build a Fire by Jack London on the eve of a zombie apocalypse.
Fear the Walking Dead
Fear the Walking Dead on a pilot alone doesn't quite make a strong enough argument for itself.
"It was like the intro to the most boring porn I’ve ever seen. Actually, wait, no. If I heard some of this dialogue in porn I’d be like 'this is pretty lame, even for porn.'"

You do own a TV, you liar!
One of our greatest pet peeves at tvDownload is people claiming "they don't own a TV," in response to discussions about current programming. Hey, do you watch Game of Thrones on your HBOGO account?...
Truly, the Koyaanisqatsi for our generation. Like, get stoned and look at the pretty, pretty pictures. Then go talk to your friends about it way harder than you actually care.
It's like Nic Pizzolatto knows his faux-deepness can’t even compete with this show’s masterful direction and cinematography,
Finally—finally—things are all going right for our favorite clones. Once all the pieces were on the board in this weekend’s season finale, the sisters’ strategy went off almost without a hitch.

"In fact, it may have been Mikkelsen’s heavy Austrian-Danish accent that obscured some of Hannibal's weaker points as a series. Namely: the barrage of baroque, erudite dialogue that sounds like it was written by a very stoned second year at St. John’s."
'Hannibal' might be the most beautifully stunning show on television, but does the rest of the show hold itself up to the same standards?
A sci-fi horror series about a futuristic British government coverup, 'Eyes Wide Shut' sex parties and smoke monsters. Starring Ramsay Bolton and Asha from Game of Thrones.

The Boltons are all like, "that's ice cold, brah."
Drew: Do....do you think Game of Thrones has finally revealed itself to be a TOTALLY different narrative than the books this episode? Like, I want to hear some Vinnie-esque show theorizing on thi...

How far can a Sharknado travel, assuming it primarily takes I-95? and other questions raised by Sharknado 3's trailer.
The first teaser trailer for Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No! is only 20 seconds long. Twenty seconds. One-third of a minute. But it just raises...so many questions.
Hannibal EP Bryan Fuller: "We have this kaleidoscopic lesbian love scene that is beautiful and I actually got a note that said the Standards and Practices Team all applauded this sex scene."
NBC’s Hannibal returns Thursday and showrunner Bryan Fuller was all too happy to talk about what’s coming up in season three of the drama.

Hope this counts for our mother's days gifts this year!
You have to understand one thing: my mom has a very hard time not talking while the TV is on. This irritated me to no end as a teen (and adult). I'd have friends over to watch Werewolf in London an...

The first thing Selina says to Bruce is that she could have hit him in the head with a brick, if she wanted to. Bruce responds: “Why would you do that? Why would you even say that?” It’s so perfect. It doesn’t even sound like acting. It sounds like a genuine reaction to the writing.

After all this time convincing viewers it's not a traditional comedy, Louie is beginning to joke.

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit's take on Anti-Vaxxers hits close to home
