    The Runarounds isn’t for everyone, and while some viewers may be put off by the teenage drama and moments of cringiness, plenty of others will happily embrace this nostalgic and simple story with open arms.
  1. When viewed as its own entity with intriguing, at times touching, ties to a world we know and love, The Paper is a skillfully-crafted mockumentary with heaps of heart and potential.
  2. With its strong ear for sound and heaps of visual style, the compelling personal journey of its main character, and a healthy bit of romantic yearning, there’s plenty to be a fan of here.
  3. The YA series continues to make the love triangle between childhood friends compelling as the show enters college and adulthood.
  4. Even though the drama in Delirium mostly revolves around one character, that character is very layered and complex. Even if the characters around her are more one-dimensional, we want to see just how Augustina got to the point where she’s in that delirious state.
  5. It may not be the happiest tale, but it is a heartwrenching and human one (supernat[u]ral monsters and all), so if you’re feeling brave and hungry for quality content, do yourselves a favor and STREAM IT!
  6. While there are a lot of absurd elements in The Gardener, the elements are grounded enough in reality to make them seem plausible. And the more plausible this show seems, the better it will be.
  7. It continues to be solid as the Conners’ story comes to an end.
  8. You might already know how this story ends, but if you’re a basketball fan, Court of Gold is going to give you a fresh thrill seeing how it was written.
  9. This season of Sweet Magnolias spends a bit of time establishing new relationships and professional roles for most of its characters, giving these established, well-loved characters a chance to branch out and explore things they haven’t done before, while still being the reliable, cozy comfort-fest we love.
  10. While there’s a lot going on in the second season of My Life With The Walter Boys, we’re still on board with the Jackie-Alex-Cole triangle, and are now intrigued by some of the side stories, as well.
  11. This show isn’t perfect, but I keep finding myself willing to forgive Task its trespasses thanks to all of the other miracles it pulls off.
  12. Katrina: Come Hell And High Water brings the storm and its aftermath down to a personal level in a way that makes the horrors of what happened fresh all over again.
  13. We don’t know if Dark Wolf is gonna show us exactly how Ben Edwards became the Dark Wolf, which as a title feels airport novel generic. But we are interested in Taylor Kitsch building on the brood he brought to the Edwards role in Terminal List, or perhaps showing us how he got that way in the first place. And yeah, the guns and jocularity and serious people saying stuff like “Team 1, go!” into ear bud microphones – that’ll be here, too, which is its own draw for shows such as this.
  14. While the first episode of Playing Nice is a bit predictable, the performances of the leads, along with the prospects of what will happen in the rest of the series, adds tension to the psychological thriller.
  15. Based on this episode alone, there’s definitely no shortage of shocking reveals, big laughs, and moving moments to come in Upload: Season 4, so it feels safe to say that if you’ve invested in this show thus far, you absolutely will want to see how it all ends.
  16. Long Story Short is a warm family comedy that will hit home to some degree to anyone who has a loving but complicated relationship with their families.
  17. Invasion is as much about human relationships that evolve in the face of an extinction event as much as it is about thwarting the invasion, and reestablishing these relationships, and introducing us to some new ones, will go a long way in not making this season feel like a rehash.
  18. Peacemaker continues to be a funny but emotional superhero drama, with a surprisingly effective performance by Cena at its center, with a fun-to-watch ensemble around him.
  19. Hostage is a solid political thriller made better by the performances of Suranne Jones and Julie Delpy, especially when they’re on screen together.
  20. Chris Hemsworth is personally engaging and does seem genuinely engaged as he undertakes a new round of mental and physical challenges in Limitless: Live Better Now.
  21. While there are aspects of The Twisted Tale Of Amanda Knox that we found annoying and unnecessary, we appreciated how Grace Van Patten portrays Knox, showing the aspects of her personality that annoyed Italian authorities so much they sent her to prison for murder.
  22. Love ‘em or hate ‘em–if you’re a football fan, you’ve got strong opinions on the Dallas Cowboys, and America’s Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys is a sharp, swaggering story of their finest era.
  23. Women Wearing Shoulder Pads gives us a weird, somewhat creepy, but ultimately funny story about women and cuys in 1980s Ecuador.
  24. The “funny” narration from Underwood and Bristowe is completely unnecessary and feels like it was added during post-production because the producers found that the show was too boring. .... It leaves us completely skeptical that all of the contestants are who they say they are.
  25. Magic City: An American Fantasy is a fun look at a club that was integral to making Atlanta one of the country’s most desirable and diverse cities.
  26. While everyone does a good job in their roles, the story at the center of The Rainmaker feels like something we’d see in a CBS law procedural, not a Grisham-based legal drama.
  27. Fit For TV: The Reality Of The Biggest Loser doesn’t reveal anything new to people who were fans of the reality competition series. But it definitely does a good job of showing exactly why it was popular and why it was a dangerous show for its contestants.
  28. We’re liking some of the spicy international flavor Butterfly is featuring amid its central dispute between spy world adversaries Daniel Dae Kim and Piper Perabo. But we’re also looking for the actual action in this action series to really establish itself. Butterfly is a tentative Stream It.
  29. Even though we know that Red Eye is going to have some ridiculous plot turns, with Nolan and Li doing things that make them look like superheroes instead of regular Brits, the performances of the four main characters have us excited to see where this story goes next.
