TV Rewind
AJ Star
Welcome to TV Rewind, my weekly television recapitulations. Here you will find episode summaries and status markers for various different television series. The shows will change with each issue to cover the juiciest storylines.
With the help of my trusty DVR and the interwebs, I do my best to watch a wide variety of shows so that you don’t have to. Because, let’s face it, not a lot of people devote more time to watching television than they do to sleep. But I’m not a lot of people.
So whether you missed an episode and don’t have time to catch up or you just want to know what your friends are talking about, TV Rewind is here to help. New issues premiere every Friday morning.
