TV Review: Absentia – Episode 9: Child’s Play
Will there be light? Will the end be satisfactory? Absentia has built an exciting mystery, yet one where the main culprit remains unknown.

It’s all coming together.
After letting us catch our breath, the intensity of Tabula Rasa is back. Tabula Rasa a brilliant show, one that Netflix seems to dare us to try and not binge watch.
The Looming Tower is an outstanding and brilliant show even if it deals with a tragic event that modified the American psyche.
Ready-made for David/Lenny shippers with great use of the dreamily theatrical tone of the show overall, “Chapter 13” is another powerhouse outing for Plaza and Legion’s solidly entertaining second season.
By committing to its tone, visuals, and X-Men’s overall narrative throughlines of mutants as metaphors, Chapters 11 & 12 keep the show on the right track while still having a blast.
ScoobyNatural is a great crossover episode that in the words of Oliver, make me want to say “Please sir! I want some more!”
There is enough material left to choose from as Philip K. Dick wrote just over 120 short stories, and the ten already aired are great sci-fi television.
After two intense episodes, Tabula Rasa offers a welcomed respite. Don’t be fooled! With the reveal at the end, there’s no doubt the intensity will return.
