Vigil is the latest police thriller from World Productions, with Jed Mercurio, the creator of Line of Duty credited as a producer. The first two episodes were shown on Sunday and Monday night in the UK to ensure viewers would be hooked in. A fishing trawler sinks near where the British nuclear submarine, HMS Vigil, was patrolling. […]
Everything that Only Murders in the Building does well (and to be clear, most of what the series does, it does well) it does very well. In fact, it’s so good at smoothing over any rough edges that it’s hard to see them when they do pop up. If you’re a true crime podcast junkie […]
On August 21, Vivienne Medrano happily promoted the newest episode of Helluva Boss, calling it the “most ambitious” episode they had done so far, thanking the Spindlehorse Toons team, and adding, in part, “Indie animation has POWER! Enjoy our hardwork!” Another indie animated series, EddsWorld, praised the episode, which garnered 800,000 views in a few […]
Netflix’s new miniseries The Chair is the perfect bite-sized binge. Six episodes, each clocking in at around 30 minutes, packed with plot and laced with humor, the show is fun, engaging, and a great watch. It’s a series that knows what it is – and understands the insane level of talent it possesses in front […]

Aine receives the tragic news that her friend from rehab, Tom, has killed himself. She sets out to pay her respects and his death makes Aine try and set things […]
When I found out that Nine Perfect Strangers was adapted from a book (and that it was from Liane Moriarty, who also wrote Big Little Lies), many of the limited series’ shortfalls began to make sense – what can work on the page, and lend some depth to characters and stories, doesn’t always translate well […]
The fourth episode of This Way Up’s second season was disappointing because it was a nothing episode. The follow-up episode was a big improvement as it was filled with character drama. It’s Shona’s Hen Do, but it has to be a scaled-back affair due to the rise of the Coronavirus. Vish drops a bombshell on […]
When one hears that Taika Waititi has a new half hour series on FX (or, if you’ve cut the cord, FX on Hulu), your initial reaction might be to assume it’s another comedy a la What We Do in the Shadows (which will be returning to both FX and Hulu this fall for season three). […]
