PARADISE is the best series you're probably not watching. With season 2 now starting on Hulu, I want to highlight this as a must-watch show that is equal parts political thriller and mystery, with a lot of entertaining and exhilarating moments sprinkled in. Throughout these first two seasons, it also has masterful lead performances from… Continue reading TV Review: Paradise
I don't know about you, but after more than decade of superhero movies, my interest has started to wane. Frankly, I've been a bit Marvel'ed out. But despite my hesitancy, DAREDEVIL hasn't done me wrong and I was super excited to give the new series, DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN, a try. And if my binge-watching of… Continue reading TV Review- Daredevil: Born Again
PRESUMED INNOCENT, based off of the 1987 novel and 1990 movie of the same name, marks another excellent political/legal thriller series from writer and show-runner David E. Kelley. I am a lover of crime series, especially of the whodunnit variety, and this had me hooked seconds into the first episode. Had I not started the… Continue reading TV Review: Presumed Innocent
Andrew Jarecki's THE JINX - PART ONE (2015) is my favorite true crime docuseries of all time. As a fan of anything true crime, I am regularly asked for recommendations and my first question is always, "Have you seen THE JINX?" Without getting too much into spoilers, PART ONE follows Robert Durst, an aging multi-millionaire… Continue reading TV Review: The Jinx – Part Two

Set in Poland, the eight… Continue reading Interview: We Were The Lucky Ones- Joey King, Georgia Hunter, & Erica Lipez
My loves, you are in for such a treat with HBO's newest satirical political miniseries THE REGIME, starring Kate Winslet. A six episode dark comedy, the series is hysterical, enthralling, and downright outrageous (in the most entertaining way). So much so, I never knew what was coming next. And the craziest part? Even its most… Continue reading TV Review: The Regime
TRUE DETECTIVE: NIGHT COUNTRY, the fourth season in the series, is my favorite yet. I know that is a big statement, especially with the popularity of season one, but I find this batch of episodes engrossing, engaging, and I love that it has such wonderful, diverse female representation behind and in front of the camera.… Continue reading TV Review: True Detective: Night Country
I am a big true crime podcast fan and one of the most consistently interesting series has been Wondery's DR. DEATH. Each season follows a new deadly doctor whose medical malfeasances have cost patients their lives. Peacock has taken on the task of bringing these stories to life. This season, which premieres December 21, focuses… Continue reading TV Series: Doctor Death Season 2
Netflix's SQUID GAME: THE CHALLENGE is the next great reality competition show. As a SURVIVOR, BIG BROTHER, MTV'S: THE CHALLENGE diehard, I do not say this lightly; it has every element of a reality competition show that makes it entertaining: strategy, social manipulation, moral dilemmas, exciting challenges, and most importantly introducing and developing competitors who… Continue reading TV Review: Squid Game: The Challenge
When you first hear about the premise of Peacock's WOLF LIKE ME, you may be skeptical. Now in its second season, the Australia-set series focuses on Gary (Josh Gad), who is struggling to connect with his "tween" daughter Emma (Ariel Donoghue) after the death of her mother. But when Mary (Isla Fisher) literally crashes into… Continue reading TV Review: Wolf Like Me
