Here’s what we’ve been watching on television.
Behind the Candelabra
Tim Brayton @ Antagony & Ecstasy
- Excerpt: Douglas and Damon perfectly navigate the entire lifespan of a relationship from giddy freshness to screaming fights.
Falling Skies: Season 2
James Plath @ Family Home Theater
- Excerpt: The family drama, the relationship side plots, and other character-related scenes are well integrated with “creature shots” and moments of action or suspense.
The Newsroom: The Complete First Season
- Excerpt: The Newsroom doesn’t always maintain the high quality of its first episode, but it remains the smart and florid workplace drama you expect of Aaron Sorkin.
