Creating a spin-off of AMC’s sensational The Walking Dead is no small feat, and it requires a lot of ingredients to pull off. The cast of characters has to be equally complex and diverse as their TWD counterparts, the setting has to fresh and interesting, and narrative arcs have to be something viewers haven’t already seen in the spin-off’s predecessor. If “Pilot” was any indication, Fear the Walking Dead will cover all these bases.

Review: Lara Croft: Relic Run
Anyone who's played games such as Temple Run and Sonic Dash will be instantly familiar with the main gameplay conceit behind Lara Croft Relic Run - run and don't stop - but what this game does so well is that it takes the core gameplay mechanic behind so many other titles and, ehem, runs with it.
Lara Croft Relic Run isn't just a licensed property cash-grab. It is a fun, meaningful, free-to-play entry in the Tomb Raider franchise, which, frankly, is long overdue.

The mobile game sees the titular heroine running, jumping, swinging, diving and shooting her path through different corners of the world, collecting coins, relics and upgrades á la Temple Run. Unlike its endless runner predecessors, Lara Croft Relic Run has multiple maps to choose from, which open the further players progress through the game.

Marvel's Agent Carter: "A Sin to Err" Review
It’s clear after this week’s episode that the momentum is
building towards Leviathan’s endgame. "A Sin to Err" saw some pretty
big developments for Peggy and the S.S.R. with some fun action scenes and
entertaining twists.
I was really satisfied with one of the early scenes in this
episode where Peggy tries to get information out of Dr. Ivechnko before being
scolded by Chief Dooley. It stood to show that sexism isn’t just an undertone
in this show – it’s a central theme. Peggy’s mistreatment in the workplace has
been subtle enough that it hasn’t overshadowed the looming threat of Leviathan,
but overt enough that, towards the end of the season, I think viewers can
expect a huge payoff.
