HARRY POTTER TRAILER: WHERE HAS THE MAGIC GONE?
First things first. The Harry Potter film franchise was an integral part of my childhood, and this HBO-produced, mega-budget TV series feels too soon and too familiar to justify its own existence. The trailer landed yesterday and, while it doesn’t look bad on a technical level, the ghosts of its predecessors haunt every frame. It…
HIGH POTENTIAL: POLICE DEPARTMENT CLEANER TURNED CRIME SOLVING CONSULTANT IS SO MUCH FUN
Sometimes you don’t want gritty realism or prestige TV sometimes you just want something smart, silly, and ridiculously entertaining.

KIDNAPPED: ELIZABETH SMART REVIEW- A HEROINE WHO REFUSES TO BE A VICTIM
Netflix has built a formidable reputation for true-crime documentaries that linger in the public consciousness long after the credits roll, and its output continues to outshine much of the competition.

AGATHA CHRISTIES’S “SEVEN DIALS”: PERIOD COSTUMES, POSH ACCENTS AND MURDER IN COUNTRY HOUSES. WHAT’S NOT TO LIKE?
It seems that there is at least one Agatha Christie adaptation released every year, either at the cinema, streaming or on terrestrial TV and the popularity of the world famous murder mystery novelist, who died in 1976, shows no sign of waning. “Seven Dials” out now on Netflix does not try and invent the wheel….
TELL ME LIES SEASON 3 REVIEW: ADDICTIVE, DARK, AND STARTING TO FEEL FAMILIAR

Some twists might be predictable, but the performances and tangled drama…
