The Best of 2022: A year stacked with great television.
When it came time to compile our Best of the Year piece two things struck me. The first was that wasn't one BIG show that resonated with people in the same way Normal People and I May Destroy You did in 2020 or It's a Sin and Mare of Easttown last year. The second was...
The Bear – This immersive and stressful drama is one of the year’s best
It's rare that a TV show feels completely immersive. It's rare that a TV drama can plunge us into a world and not explain how it all works but that's exactly what makes The Bear (all available on Disney+) So special. Set in a family restaurant in Chicago, the first...

Autumn 2022: The shows we’re really excited to see.
After a summer of sport, TV is getting its act together this autumn. Yes, the World Cup will disrupt things in November but the streamers have plenty to keep us non-footie fans occupied. Here are the shows we're looking forward to over the next few months. Minx...
How streamers are leaving UK subscribers out of the conversations
I'm not the biggest fan of Netflix. It's a confused brand that offers so much to every possible viewer, that it's impossible to tell quite who they're catering for. One thing they do that I'll always be grateful for is whenever a new drama, documentary, comedy or...
Under the Banner of Heaven uses a shocking crime to look deeper at religious beliefs.
After watching the first episode of “Under the Banner of Heaven,” I was admittedly sceptical. The first episode starts out slow, simply introducing the murder at the centre and the detective who will be solving it. Everything about the first hour of the show told me...
Only Murders in the Building to return for a third season.
Hulu has ordered a third season of the comedy series starring Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez. The news comes after just three episodes of the show's second season have aired on Hulu in the US and Disney+ across the world....
Atlanta” isn’t in Atlanta anymore. But it’s still just as good.
Atlanta has always been a genre-defying show. The pilot episode leads you to believe otherwise, that the series is a straightforward comedy-drama following the rise of Atlanta rapper Paper Boi (Brian Tyree Henry) and his cousin/manager Earn (series creator Donald...
Season 2 of Only Murders in the Building.
The first season of Only Murders in the Building was one of the best shows of last year. Funny, warm and with a new take on the mystery genre it was unpredictable and absolutely delightful. For those who need a refresher, the series follows Charles (Steve Martin),...
Abbott Elementary is a warm and engaging comedy that you can’t help but for in love with.
It’s unsurprising given the world events of the past couple of years that TV has been turning to more positive, heartwarming comedies for escapism. Shows like Schitt’s Creek and Ted Lasso have given us an antidote to the harshness of life around us, by leaning hard...

Why ‘The Dropout’ stands head and shoulders above the rest in a very crowded field.
*Contains spoilers for the series up to the finale.* The era of Peak-TV appears to be going through a grifter stage right now, and not just any grifter too. Maybe it’s that the stories are high profile, or maybe it’s because television writers are trying to make sense...
Jessica Biel in as serial killer Candy Montgomery in new HULU drama.
Jessica Biel's next role sees her star as notorious serial killer Candy Montgomery in a five-part drama for HULU and presumably Disney+ in the UK. The series, entitled Candy, sees Montgomery, a seemingly normal housewife in small-town Texas, who was convicted in 1980...
‘How Met Your Mother’ sequel doesn’t quite do much to fix the original show’s problematic past and isn’t as innovate as its predecessor either.
When How I Met Your Mother first premiered in 2005, there was little reason to believe it was anything other than a Friends copycat. It had the classic friend group — five white twenty-somethings in New York City, each with their own personality, and set up perfectly...

‘Pam and Tommy’ remembers to humanise the people at the centre of the story.
"We have recently come into possession of a piece of material......" The first episode of Pam & Tommy takes a risk. Only in as much as it doesn't feature the title characters very much at all. Lily James' amazing portrayal of the Baywatch star is given virtually...
