Much like most Americans were unaware until recently that Disney owned Hulu, most U.K. (and U.S.) viewers have no idea Channel 5, the network behind All Creatures Great & Small, is owned by Paramount. As we have mentioned, Paramount is in the middle of being sold to Skydance

Grantchester's ninth season ends much as it lived, with an hour that is...fine, if generally unremarkable. There is nothing shocking about this final hour, which makes a vague attempt at raising the stakes for several characters only to essentially reset things to the series' baseline status

Much like most of the episodes that preceded it, the penultimate installment of Grantchester Season 9 is a mixed bag. An hour that finally sees several of the season's seemingly disparate story threads come together in a way that indicates its most annoying subplots were meant to be

If the latest episode of Grantchester is anything to go by, that recent internet trend about men being obsessed with the Roman Empire has been true for much longer than TikTok has been around. The discovery of some Roman-era remains in local farmers Marcus and Della Blakely's (Cavan

Grantchester may be a series that has evolved into an ensemble piece, but it's always been a show predominantly about men. It has its share of entertaining female characters: vicarage caretaker Mrs. C, Geordie's wife Cathy, and police secretary Miss Scott; however, the show's

In the least surprising announcement this month, Grantchester has been renewed for Season 10. The Odd Couple Solving Crimes in a Small U.K. Town series has been a fan-favorite ever since it launched in 2014, with fans first falling in love with original odd couple Rev. Sidney Chambers (James

The moment many of us have been dreading has finally arrived: Will Davenport has officially left Grantchester. Technically, this isn't a surprise, given that we've known Tom Brittney would be departing the show for the past year or so. However, Grantchester still manages to wring maximum

It's the end of an era. (Again.) Mystery series Grantchester is once again undergoing what is rapidly becoming The Time-Honored Tradition of The Changing of The Vicars (three times in eight years!) as star Tom Brittney hangs up his collar. This first episode of the new season simultaneously

Since the beginning of Grantchester Season 8, when the production announced the planned departure of lead Tom Brittney, fans have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of Season 9, partly to see his exit from the series as Reverend William Davenport, and to meet his replacement, the Rev. Alphy Kotteram, played

Due to the ineffable whims of scheduling, the last two episodes of Grantchester Season 8 arrived together, airing back-to-back on PBS Masterpiece as a two-hour block. And, while that particularly broadcast decision was perhaps an unintentional one, the pairing of the final two episodes of the season ultimately really works
