It’s that time of year again when I look back at my personal TV highs and lows and shout out a few favourites that might have slipped under the radar. It’s been a surprisingly strong year, with plenty of series giving films a proper run for their money. I’m sure I’ve missed many of your…
I loved the first season so much and was genuinely excited to watch the next series, which is out today. So far, I am already hooked. It’s intense, gripping, and it proves yet again just how important the work of these investigators is. This show doesn’t just highlight cases it highlights the emotional weight, the…
Wild Cherry definitely gives off Gossip Girl vibes, but with a darker twist of Pretty Little Liars and a dash of Mean Girls and honestly, that cocktail makes it pretty addictive. Set in the exclusive, ultra-wealthy gated community of Richford Lake, the story revolves around two mothers Juliet (played by Eve Best) and Lorna (played by Carmen Ejogo) and their teenage daughters, Grace and…
The first time I watched Broadchurch, I was instantly hooked. You know that feeling when you tell yourself, “I’ll just watch one episode,” and suddenly you’re five deep and emotionally wrecked? That was me. So when I found out the show was coming to Netflix, I didn’t even hesitate I knew I had to watch it…
Does having autism make someone more or less likely to become a killer? It’s an uncomfortable question, yet it sits at the heart of this undeniably tragic yet often frustrating documentary. The film never quite knows whether it wants to explore the mystery of a family’s demise or the complexities of neurodivergence, and that tension…
The new thriller from Slow Horses creator Will Smith, based on Mick Herron’s debut novel, hits like a bang literally and figuratively. With the first three episodes now streaming on Apple TV+, I’m already hooked. It’s fast, witty, and full of surprises. Emma Thompson, who usually graces the big screen rather than television, is on sharp form…
There are so many true crime stories out there that it’s getting harder to tell which ones are truly worth watching. Some documentaries pull you in immediately, while others feel either too flat or too sensationalised. Aileen: Queen of Serial Killers tries to strike a balance exploring the life and crimes of Aileen Wuornos, one of…
The Perfect Neighbour is an intriguing and unsettling take on a true-crime documentary, told almost entirely through the bodycam footage of Florida police officers. It offers a raw, unfiltered look into the tragic events surrounding the fatal shooting of Ajike “AJ” Owens, a Black mother of four, by her white neighbor, Susan Lorincz. The story is…
Helen McCrory was one of those rare talents who could transform every role she touched. From the icy poise of Narcissa Malfoy in Harry Potter to the fierce matriarch Polly Gray in Peaky Blinders, she consistently brought depth, strength, and vulnerability to her characters. Four years after her heartbreaking passing from cancer, Fearless originally an ITV drama has…
The beginning was iconic that graveyard setting was such a clever choice. It tied perfectly into Halloween and the eerie tone of the series, especially with the contestants literally digging up their “graves” to find shields. It’s the perfect mix of camp and suspense that makes The Traitors so addictive. I feel like Cat Burns will be a brilliant…
