If you’ve seen any of the myriad of post-apocalyptic television shows, films, or read any of the books out there, you likely have a basic understanding of the various forces at work within Silo, the new dramatic thriller from AppleTV+, adapted from the series of novels under the same name from Hugh Howey. But the […]
It’s been awhile since television audiences have had a chance to see all that Jennifer Garner is capable of – it’s been a whopping 17 years since Alias, the ABC spy drama that launched Garner’s career went off the air. The Last Thing He Told Me, the AppleTV+ miniseries based on the novel of the […]
In my review of season one of Schmigadoon!, I worried that the series might not appeal to those who weren’t, like me, big time musical theatre fans. After all, if you can’t tell your Lerner and Loewe from your Rogers and Hammerstein, would you really care about a television series parodying their biggest hits and […]
The Big Door Prize, the new dramedy series from AppleTV+ (adapted from M.O. Walsh’s book of the same name) looks at how group-think – and predictions of the future – can impact a town and force people to take a good hard look at their lives and who they want to become. The plot itself […]
Extrapolations, the new anthology drama set to debut on AppleTV+ this Friday, is not going to be everyone’s cup of tea. And, even for people who can laud its big narrative swings, I suspect it will struggle to find an audience throughout its eight episode running time. That’s not a dig at the performances, the […]
I suspect there’s little, if anything, I or any other critic could write about the third (and possibly final?) season of Ted Lasso that could either dissuade someone or convince someone to watch the series at this point. At this stage in the game, you’ve either been thoroughly charmed by the fish out of water […]
There’s a cool idea at the center of the new AppleTV+ international spy thriller Liaison: two Syrian hackers discover information that could destroy an evil corporation with deep international governmental ties and desperately need the help of European spy associations to get them to safety. Luckily for them, two of the people on the case […]
I love a creative sci-fi drama. I also love a reto-set story that pulls from sci-fi to create a cool blend of mid-century style with futuristic elements that set the series apart from your usual 50s/60s-set stories. And that’s essentially what Hello Tomorrow!, a new AppleTV+ series from Amit Bhalla and Lucas Jansen is – […]
It will only take you about two episodes to figure out if Dear Edward, an adaptation of the novel of the same name, will be your type of show. For me, it definitely wasn’t. But I suspect it’s a series that will find an audience – largely because shows with a similar look, feel, and […]
As we continue to wait for the third (and reportedly final) season of AppleTV+’s hit comedy series Ted Lasso, the streaming service has provided us with something to tide us over: Shrinking, a new comedy series from the team behind Ted Lasso (that would be Bill “Scrubs” Lawrence and Brett “Roy Kent” Goldstein), along with […]
