In the realm of television (well, at least Disney+ television), the MCU is currently batting .500. While WandaVision was a definite success, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier was much more uneven and left a lot to be desired.* So, now we come to Loki, a series that takes an incredibly popular (and in the […]
Lisey’s Story has one of the best television casts ever constructed: Julianne Moore, Clive Owen, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Joan Allen, Ron Cephas Jones, Dane Dehaan, Michael Pitt. I mean, come on, three of those actors in a show would be incredible, but all of them? It’s an embarrassment of riches! And each one is acting […]
So, you enjoyed Mare of Easttown and want to check out another show just like it? Well, you’ve come to the right place! You might not realize it, but there are several pretty good to great shows out there that can bring you all of the small-town suspense of Mare right now! Hell, some even […]
Much like death and taxes, the former NBC comedy series Friends has become a constant in modern life. For Gen X and elder Millennials, it’s a series that evokes the nostalgia of their youth; for younger Millennials and Gen Z, it’s that show they binged on Netflix and may have followed over to HBO Max […]
Despite warnings to the contrary, I was fully convinced I could binge Amazon’s harrowing limited series The Underground Railroad when it premiered nearly two weeks ago. Boy, was I wrong.

The Me You Can’t See is an ambitious and emotional documentary series from Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, and Oprah Winfrey. Ambitious because it aims to tackle the stigma around seeking help for mental health struggles by asking a range of individuals – from their fellow celebrities and elite athletes to average folks – […]
It’s hard to think of an actor who has notched more quality TV work over the last decade than Jean Smart. From her work as a crime syndicate’s matriarch on season two of Fargo (the best season of the series), her work as the therapist to a band of mutants in season one of Legion […]
In the continuing streaming battle, Amazon has fallen behind not only its early rival Netflix, but also recent additions like AppleTV+ in the push for buzzy shows. I rarely hear people talking about the great new show on Amazon – or even talking about Amazon’s TV offerings at all – which is a bit of […]
A month ago, I wouldn’t have dreamed of recommending folks add a Peacock subscription to their already lengthy list of streaming options. But after the arrival of Rutherford Falls last week and Girls5eva this weekend, well, I think it might be time to pony up some cash – at least if you were a fan […]
