‘Come From Away’

Thank god that someone thought to get a pro-shot of Come From Away before their Broadway run ended and thank god Apple TV put it up for all of our viewing pleasure. Knowing only that the musical is set in Newfoundland on 9/11 and in the days after, I recently sat down to watch this musical, completely (and blissfully) unaware of how much it was...

‘Reacher’ Season 4

The new season of Reacher is an absolute blast. The fourth installment of this Prime Video favorite, once again, inexplicably, begins with multiple dummies seeing Reacher, a man who looks like an actual mountain constructed of muscles, sarcastic quips, and enough Creatine to fill the grandest of canyons, and being like, "Yeah, let's go try to...

Directed by Julia Hart, with a screenplay written by Hart,...

‘Ted Lasso’ Season 4, Episode 2 “Curiouser and Curiouser!”

Ted Lasso Season 4's Kansas City-set premiere reminded us there's no place like home. But Season 4, Episode 2 reminded us there’s no place like Richmond, either. If you were reluctant to dive back into the Apple TV series three years after its Season 3 finale, Season 4's second episode, "Curiouser and Curiouser!" will ease your mind and make you ...

‘Sterling Point’

Sterling Point is a refreshing new addition to Prime Video. As for why I have chosen that descriptor, is in the midst of a slew of book-to-screen adaptations (which I still thoroughly enjoy, nonetheless) is an original work, featuring a stellar cast of young actors, many of whom have broken out in this series. However, that doesn't mean the series ...

‘My Brilliant Career’

At first glance, Netflix's enchanting new period drama My Brilliant Career feels like just the latest in a long line of modern adaptations that drop anachronistic needledrops and sexy scenes to appeal to contemporary audiences. However, the themes of My Brilliant Career — based on Miles Franklin's semi-autobiographical novel of the same name — ...

‘The Traitors’ Season 4

Who is getting ready for The Traitors: New Blood? I am clearly a little excited at the idea of an all-civilian season of The Traitors and in preparation for that, I am now rewatching the most recent season, which I consider to be excellent television. Rob Rausch has never been hotter or more deceitful. Lisa Rinna has never been more stylish or...
