episode recaps
Show summary articles
Episode recaps are summaries of what happened in a television show, posted online or in print after episodes air.
They range from straightforward plot synopses to detailed analyses with commentary and criticism.
Fans use them to catch up on missed episodes, refresh their memory before new ones, or engage with others' reactions: I always read the recaps on Monday morning.
