If you approach Echo like the five-episode movie that it is, you’ll be a lot more satisfied with the pace of the limited series’ storytelling.

Viewers who aren’t familiar with the facts surrounding the killing will find them well-presented in John Lennon: Murder Without a Trial, buttressed by eyewitness interviews.

I wish Netflix added chapters so I could urge you to SKIP AHEAD to the stories and avoid all the unnecessary transphobia. .... This Netflix contract with Chappelle is his dream, not ours.

True Detective: Night Country doesn’t ever quite hit the smarmy noir notes Pizzolatto’s seasons were known for, but it’s crisp, chilling fun. Foster is fantastic, Reis a revelation, and López an auteur on the rise. It’s a dark and twisty thriller that’s perfect for these cold winter Sunday nights and even better for dissecting Monday morning with friends.

If I have one criticism to lob at Netflix’s Pokémon Concierge, it’s that the first season is too damn short. Just as Haru acclimates to her new role, the first season is over! There’s literally only four episodes of Pokémon Concierge and they all clock in at about 15 minutes in length. On the one hand, that makes the series a powerfully potent cocktail of sweetness. On the other, it leaves you desperate for more.

Is there a chance that Extended Family can transcend its awful first three episodes? Sure; sitcoms take time to find their comedic footing. But when you’re starting with tired plots, scattershot storytelling, lame gags and stars who don’t use the skills we know they have, it’s an awfully steep hill to climb to get to mediocre.

Fool Me Once has enough potential for some intriguing plot twists, and more than enough solid performances, to make up for some awkward dialogue and plot points that feel like they’re going to unnecessarily complicate things.

Despite our reservations, Gyeongseong Creature has a good story buried in all the murkiness. But we’re not sure if the show will actually be able to focus on that story as the first season goes along.

Fans of the original Yu Yu Hakusho manga will definitely want to check how this energetic live action version realizes its classic characters. But there’s plenty to enjoy for the rest of us, too, with Takumi Kitamura’s detached sense of cool as rookie spirit detective Yusuke, the series’ unpredictable sense of humor, its high-flying fight choreography, and sharp use of VFX.

Yes, seeing Carol’s elderly parents in the buff, doing the things that throuples do with their burly aide Michael, is funny. But it’s also poignant; even at their advanced age, Carol’s parents are doing the things they never got to do simply because it’s everyone’s last chance.

Born In Synanon is unique among cult-related docuseries because it shows that not all cults start because of one person’s narcissism and messiah complex; some actually have good intentions. Of course, it makes it all the more fascinating to watch it all go wrong.

The show is a daring take on the saturated genre. .... When it returns to the investigation and drops the “oh-too-predictable” bombshells, it contextualizes them beyond the gritty details. Hehir’s direction and story sequence is riveting, and the interview subjects have much to offer, whether it be from a first-hand account or through decades of research and advocacy.

Despite some stylistic missteps, Archie is a well-paced story about the life of Cary Grant, who most of us really only know from the roles he played in films that are 60 or more years old.
