The Hunt For Raoul Moat is a pretty by-the-numbers limited series about a real-life manhunt. However, the performances are compelling enough, and the runtime short enough, to keep viewers engaged.

When MaryLand concentrates on Becca and Rosaline re-bonding while seeking answers about their mother, the series works the best, thanks the performances from Jones and Best. The rest of the stories surrounding the sisters feel like filler that won’t really have much to do with the general direction of the series.

Leonardo Da Vinci breathes new life into the artist’s legend; Ken Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon have painted a pretty complete picture of a man who was much more than the sum of his most famous works.

Tulsa King continues to be a bit cartoonish and ridiculous, with stories that are introduced and dropped with increasing frequency. But Stallone is still entertaining as Dwight, as is the crew around him, and that may be enough for this show.

There’s great potential for a fun road-trip comedy here.

Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord is certainly one of the darker entries in the franchise, especially among the animated series. But there is a lot of potential to dig into the personality of one of the franchise’s most notorious villains, which is always something we look forward to seeing.

If it weren't for Deborah Ayorinde and especially Sarah Niles, we'd likely tell people to skip Riches because it's so over-the-top soapy. But the two lead performances are so compelling that it will definitely make viewers flip to at least the second episode after the first is over.

If you’re going to wait a decade to create a second season of a show, it’s got to do two things: It’s got to remind people who watched the first season what the connections back to that season are, and it’s got to tell a new story that’s just as compelling as the first season was. The second season of The Night Manager definitely accomplishes the first, but hasn’t yet proven that it’ll accomplish the second.

It’s a wildly entertaining rollercoaster that will have you rooting for the complex characters, questioning who you can trust, and reexamining your own biases in a way that doesn’t feel derivative.

If you find Hallmark’s holiday movies to be a little too sappy for your taste, With Love will scratch that itch you may have for a warm family-oriented romcom, with just a bit more representation and edge.

Quiz isn’t exactly a heavy lift for the viewer; it’s only 3 parts — though probably would be better as 2 — and is about a scandal that has more silly elements (a lot of coughing, for instance) than serious ones.

The first episode of Extraordinary sets up a pretty funny premise; we just hope that the joke that everyone in the world has powers except Jen doesn’t quickly wear out when the novelty of it does.

Frayed tells a funny and hopefully heartwarming story about a woman who has to re-adapt to the place she fled decades ago, and how her pasty and awkward kids might flourish there. It’s not a new concept, but it works here.

In its first hour, The Outlaws manages to have a bunch of funny moments, one or two thrills, and tells more than enough about its ensemble to keep us watching.

The anthology series is putting us in a new twilight zone with its season 7 tales of technology run amok and raw emotion as the timeless driver of the human condition.

A Man on the Inside is a breezy and fun septuagenarian shenanigan tale from start to finish.

STREAM IT, if you’re a fan of the Spartacus franchise. If you’re not, you’re going to be too confused and confounded by Spartacus: House Of Asher to want to continue past the first couple of episodes, so SKIP IT

While there are a lot of scene of just people talking that don’t add much to the overall story, The Gold still paints an interesting picture of a massive accidental heist and its aftermath.

Mastermind: To Think Like A Killer is an interesting look at the fascinating career of Dr. Ann Burgess, highlighting how she changed the way law enforcement looked at rape victims as well as serial killers.

Ultimately what makes Bridgerton such a gem is its adoration of the historic romance genre. The attention to detail in this show doesn’t cater to fussy historic accuracy, but the way the romance genre drowns readers in fantasy. Bridgerton is a swoon-inducing treat that will leave you hot, bothered, and begging for more.

This doc can and should inspire many important conversations across the legal, music, and media industries. Framing Britney Spears is entertaining to watch, but even more than that, it is shocking and hopefully motivating.

Minx is effervescently fun, full of heart and smarts, and a heck of a lot of promise for what’s still to come.

Where the series shines is through its at times brutal, at times delicate realism. Through Ptolemy’s widened unseeing eyes, you can understand the pure terror his life must be every day. If you’ve ever been someone diagnosed with dementia, Jackson nails their mannerisms while also infusing his performance with a degree of empathy many of these patients rarely experience. ... Fishback’s quietly powerful take on Robyn is what makes Jackson’s performance so notable.

It’s very silly, very extreme, and very entertaining. But unlike Regular Show, Close Enough consistently channels its random energy and silly characters to make a bigger, more interesting point.

Because of the twist at the end of the first episode and the series’ relative brevity, watching Sophie: A Murder In West Cork should be worth your time.

Mulaney’s magic act remains using turns of phrase as his sleight of hand. He’s just now a much creepier magician. ... We get two-thirds of the story from Mulaney, but he’s still holding back on us. Whether he’s doing that for his benefit or for ours, we may never know. But he’s still a gifted and often hilarious storyteller. No matter what story he’s selling us.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a charming new addition to the Game of Thrones franchise that will woo you back to Westeros.

While it’s a bit of a slow burn of a show, Andor draws you in because it is so thoroughly and messily human. ... Andor is Star Wars, distilled down to its revolutionary soul.
