TV: Sunday-Night Scorecard
The Crown (pictured): I couldn’t believe how ponderous and, frankly, dull were the first three episodes. But Vanessa Kirby brought the new season to life in episode four. Her Princess Margaret is a combination of royal restraint and seething fury. Grade: A-. The Walking Dead: Just when you thought it couldn’t get more shocking than Negan bashing in the brains of two fan favorites, The Walking Dead proved it had some more twisted tricks up its sleeve. The zombie drama unleashed its most surprising move in eight seasons when it revealed that Carl Grimes (played by Chandler Riggs) had been bit by a walker, signaling his impending death on the show. Grade: A.
