Joel Edgerton plays a physicist menaced by an alternate version of himself.
Dark Matter, the new multiversal thriller on Apple TV+, is adapted by showrunner Blake Crouch from his own 2016 novel, but it was the show’s superficial similarities to The Prisoner that piqued my interest. I detailed the ways that seminal British spy-fi series influenced this new American one in the first of my Dark Matter recaps for Vulture.
My Washington Post review of prolific writer/director/producer/showrunner Ed Zwick’s name-dropping but also name-naming memoir is here.
Callum Turner, Austin Butler, and a B-17. (Apple TV+)
With seven years as an editor for Air & Space / Smithsonian, may it rest in power, under my belt, I was the only man for the job of telling you which real American historical figures are played by real English and Irish actors. My Vulture recaps of Masters of the Air, showrunner John Orloff’s long-delayed Apple TV+ adaptation of Donald L. Miller’s nonfiction history book, are here.
Reacher locked his keys in the car again. Just kidding; Reacher doesn’t have a car. Or any keys. (Brooke Palmer / Prime Video)
I’m recapping the second season of Reacher, the first-nameless Amazon adaptation of Lee Child’s hilarious series of novels about a hyper-competent, mountain-sized ex-military vigilante hobo, for Vulture. Truly, this is a labor of love. I yield to no man in my admiration for Christopher McQuarrie’s 2012 feature Jack Reacher, but this is a different beast. A larger, less expensive one.
It's a Y2K-pop extravaganza as Chris and Glen emerge from their unplanned and unannounced hiatus to dissect 72-year-old Patty McG's brief-but-memorable guest appearance reprising the role of Number Six for (the final eight minutes of) the Season 12 Simpsons episode "The Computer Wore Menace Shoes." Cowabunga!
The Simpsons, season 12, episode six — "The Computer Wore Menace Shoes"
Written by John Swartzwelder
Directed by Mark Kirkland
Originally aired December 3, 2000
September 17 marked the 50th anniversary of the debut of M*A*S*H, a pioneering TV series that was a little before my time (says the guy who co-hosts a show about an older a much more obscure series) but which has its share of latter-day acolytes. I spoke to a couple of them for my Smithsonian piece about the show’s legacy.
Tramell Tillman, Zach Cherry, John Turturro, Britt Lower and Adam Scott in the Apple TV+ series Severance.
I was thrilled to join my old pals Linda and Glen and my new pal Roxana Hadadi to discuss Severance, the marvelous and unsettling new Apple+ sci-fi drama.
THERE CAN BE ONLY TWO(s) as Chris & Glen rank their top six on this week’s exciting episode!
