To be honest, there’s a lot I genuinely dislike about this show. .... And yet, the show is also undeniably addictive; the characters and their behaviors might be unlikeable, but with new lies and mysteries unfolding in every episode, there’s just enough there to get you to binge the whole thing.- Decider

Meyers remains the least likely you’d expect to see doing stand-up comedy, and yet somehow, he’s also the most proficient of them at doing it right now.- Decider

Even if Pluto strikes some sci-fi watchers as a bit derivative or self-serious, animation fans should appreciate its designs, fluidity, and invention. This is a great-looking show, and effective testimony for how sometimes fantastical stories are better-served by animation rather than live-action.- Decider

The Boys continues to build towards a climactic confrontation, but with a story that has reached the point where it’s become personal and intimate. We hope that continues, even if it exists alongside the action and funny moments.- Decider

We Need To Talk About Cosby is definitely hard to watch, and that’s the point. It brings up many of the same feelings Bell himself is working through via his direction. But that discomfort is a big indication that Bell is doing his job.- Decider

Wilderness isn't one of those shows that's going to challenge you with a plot full of moral dilemmas and high drama. It's a show that’s more than a bit mordant and campy, but that and the performances of Coleman and Jackson-Cohen add to its appeal.- Decider

As powerful as Schuman’s decision to come forward is – and it’s only given more strength when in conjunction with the stories of her fellow accusers – it’s the indictment of the entertainment biz as a clearing house of terrible behavior that makes a significant impact in Fallen Idols.- Decider

Vox Machina is a fun, chaotic ride through the world the players in Critical Role have been building upon for years. It takes the characters viewers are likely already familiar with, and establishes a story that both fans and newcomers can get into without catching up on the series.- Decider

American Conspiracy: The Octopus Murders is a fascinating look at a case that not only has huge implications about how the U.S. government ran in the 1980s and ’90s, but it’s also gives a lot of insight into how journalists can get so deep into stories that sometimes have pretty humble beginnings.- Decider

Season 2 is a delightful improvement over the first season. If you loved to hate And Just Like That... Season 1, there are still enough bonkers moments to fuel your hate-tweets. And if you’re a SATC diehard, you’ll find yourself swooning (and screaming) over where the decades-long saga takes Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda next.- Decider

Christina’s story falls squarely in the”truth is stranger than fiction” category. Though the supernatural abilities have nothing to do with Amber’s death, the fact that this woman was stigmatized because of her supposed powers and they caused people to believe she was capable of murder is unique and fascinating and worth a look.- Decider

There is certainly a relentless darkness about Barry that gets even darker in its final season. But Hader and Berg still throw in enough absurd moments and character-based humor to keep things from careening into full-on drama. But we’re definitely expecting the final season to be heavily dramatic, and we’re on board for it.- Decider
