Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord, Episode 7

Title: Chapter 7: Call to Oblivion
Air date: April 27, 2026
Director: Nathaniel Villanueva
Writer: Julia Cooperman
Summary:
Maul brings Devon and Rylee to his hideout as the Empire closes in, but Devon refuses to follow him and tries to get Rylee away. Things go sideways fast when Imperial forces capture Rylee, forcing Devon back toward Lawson and Daki. Meanwhile, Maul’s attempt to escape Janix collapses into a brutal fight with Marrok and the Eleventh Brother, leaving his followers scattered, his ship destroyed, and his already damaged leg becoming a very real problem. Maul survives because of course he does, but this is the Empire turning the screws hard.

Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord, Episode 8

Title: Chapter 8: The Creeping Fear
Air date: April 27, 2026
Director: Saul Ruiz
Writer: Jennifer Corbett
Summary:
With Maul separated from his crew and physically breaking down, the episode digs into his past through hallucinations of Sidious, Savage Opress, and the trauma that shaped him into the walking red flag he is today. Two-Boots finally gets his moral compass rebooted after learning what the Empire really did to Klyce, helping Rylee escape before the group walks into yet another trap. Sul sacrifices herself to stop Blake, and Maul’s surviving crew regroups just in time for a message from Dryden Vos, because apparently the galaxy’s criminal LinkedIn is still very active.

Title: Ends of the Earth
Air date: April 24, 2026
Director: Lawrence Trilling
Writer: Tanner Hansinger
Summary:
Outpost 18 tracks Godzilla and Titan X toward Skull Island, where Godzilla backs off and Isabel reveals the full flavor of her Apex-branded madness. Her plan is not just about Axis Mundi. It is about using Titan X, its egg, and Skull Island itself as pieces on a very expensive monster chessboard. Meanwhile, Tim, Shaw, Keiko, May, and Monarch forces follow Titan X onto the island, Shaw and Keiko get separated, Cate escapes, and Kentaro drops the emotional trap card by claiming they can save Hiroshi. In the 1958 storyline, Keiko and Bill marry, while Bill’s later obsession with rifts shows how this family has been getting emotionally nuked by monster science for decades.

Daredevil: Born Again, Season 2, Episode 7

Title: The Hateful Darkness
Air date: April 28, 2026
Director: Iain B. MacDonald
Writer: Heather Bellson
Summary:
Karen Page finally gets her day in court, and Matt comes out of hiding to help defend her alongside Kirsten McDuffie. The trial puts the AVTF under pressure, but Fisk’s machine responds the only way it knows how: violence, intimidation, and ugly backroom damage control. Jessica Jones confronts Mr. Charles and learns Luke Cage is working overseas with the CIA, while Dex interrupts an assassination attempt on Governor McCaffrey. The emotional gut punch lands with Daniel Blake, who nearly gives BB Urich up to Cashman before finding his spine at the worst possible time. He lets her escape, refuses to reveal her location, and pays for it with his life.

Rating Out of 5, Matthew Murdock for the Defense is Straight Fire
Brian: 4.22/5
