The Week Ahead: Terribly binge-worthy

A well-received series about the failed 1845 Franklin Expedition tells us as much about the present as the past.

This week, AMC, an American cable channel best known for its award-winning series “Mad Men” and “Breaking Bad,” airs the first episode of its well-received series “The Terror,” a faithful, 10-episode adaptation of the 2007 Dan Simmons novel of the same name (itself is a less-faithful re-telling of the fate of the Franklin expedition, a doomed 1845 British voyage sent out to explore the last uncharted section of the Northwest Passages).
