The final chapter of the quest for the Seven Keys came to a conclusion last night as The Magicians aired its season finale on Syfy, and holy crap what an ending for the show’s third season!! The episode opened with Quentin reading Chapter 8 to the entire team, interspersed with another amazing animation sequence. We all learned that a Knight ... Read More »

All Hail High King Margo! Yep, it’s High King Margo not High King Eliot or High King Tick in the world of The Magicians. It would seem that the inhabitants of Fillory, which consists of more talking animals than human beings, have spoken. Who knew there were a million talking animals in Fillory – no one! – not until Eliot ... Read More »

Last night’s episode of The Magicians focused on a journey not tackled by Quentin, Alice, Margo or Eliot but actually by Julia and Josh, as they inadvertently traveled into the alternate timeline 23 that was featured last season when Quentin was trying to save his own timeline’s Alice. It would seem that the Beast exists in that alternate timeline, and ... Read More »

Last night’s new episode of The Magicians was all about making a deal whether it was with a rival, an elusive ally or the devil himself. Here are my reactions to the deals that were made and some of the other revelations: 1. Kady took the 5th key in order to supposedly be able to see Penny, but why was ... Read More »

On their quest for the Seven Keys that are supposed to bring magic back to their world, The Magicians had to get through a few musical numbers and some unzombie-like zombies in order to find the 5th key.

In probably the best episode so far this season, the Syfy series The Magicians was all-new on Wednesday night, and directed by Eureka alum Salli Richardson-Whitfield [she played Alison Blake on the long-running fan favorite series.] The title of Wednesday night’s episode says it all: “Six Short Stories About Magic” Penny He made it to the Underworld Branch through the ...

Another new episode of The Magicians aired last night on Syfy. In their quest to find the key that was lost when poor Benedict took his life, ending up as dragon food no less, they had to follow a pretty tricky path to get it back; or more to the point figure out how to get Penny to the underworld ...

Last night’s new episode of The Magicians found Quentin on another quest for the next key where he ran into a former Brakebills student while Margo dealt with fending off her amorous but undesirable new husband.

A new episode of The Magicians aired last night on Syfy, focusing on a new journey that Quentin and Eliot went on to find the next key while Kady was dealing with being in rehab and Alice and Julia try to determine how Julia still has magic.

Last night’s episode of The Magicians – in my honest opinion – was SO much better than last week’s gross fest with that damn Lamprey wreaking havoc on Alice, her parents and Quentin. Sadly this week’s episode focused on the death of Penny. Sure the guy might not be loved overmuch by his fellow – albeit former – students at ... Read More »
