For better or for worse, the Cold War action-comedy lives! 35 years after the fall of the Soviet Union, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein have meshed the longstanding Odd Couple road trip with Iron Curtain hijinks and modern action sensibilities for a surprisingly solid but conceptually
Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia gives us a true puppetmistress in the form of Boraqchin in Ep. 11 "An Ungraceful Stone". This episode has shown her to be a master planner and manipulator, making her quite the political genius. However, this episode also reveals that the people she's puppeting don't
