  • Alan Sepinwall of the Star-Ledger offered the comments below about “Trapdoor”, episode 2.12 of Life starring Damian Lewis:

    “Life,” “Trapdoor” (NBC, 12/17): The drama about Zen-quoting cop Charlie Crews (the wonderful Damian Lewis) often struggles to balance its one-shot stories with the longer arcs about the conspiracy that put Crews in prison for 12 years for a murder he didn’t commit. The show’s fall finale managed to bring together all the disparate threads, while reintroducing “Deadwood” alum Garret Dillahunt as a cold Russian gangster, in a concentrated burst of comedy, surprise and sheer coolness.

    In the US you can watch “Trapdoor” online for free at NBC.com.
