Even though Alaska Daily is a network television drama, it had a lot going for it. For starters, it was created by Academy Award winning director, Tom McCarthy, and he also got two-time Academy Award winner Hilary Swank to star. Admittedly, Swank hasn’t been doing the best work of her career recently, but I had hopes for this show. I’d say that even with this short season, they delivered.

Mayfair Witches – Season 1 Review
Sigh. I so very much wanted to love this new series in the Anne Rice-verse, just like I did with Interview with the Vampire, but Mayfair Witches just didn’t quite live up to that first series.
Read moreShrinking – Season 1 Review
I hope Brett Goldstein hangs onto this hot streak for as long as he can. Or, if we’re lucky, it never ends. Just like Ted Lasso, his and Bill Lawrence’s new Apple + show, Shrinking, is a hit.
Read moreYou Season 4 Review
Well, well well. I was expecting a bit of the same old, same old here, but this season on You, the writers decided to switch a lot of things up! Not that I was tired of the old formula, but this new route was interesting from the jump.
Read moreBlack Bird Miniseries Review
This drama miniseries was on my watch-list as soon as I heard about it, and now that I have Apple+ again and both the Golden Globes and Critic’s Choice awarded Paul Walter Hauser, I knew I had to start it ASAP.
Read moreMythic Quest – Season 3 Review
It truly felt like a lifetime had passed since the last season of Mythic Quest dropped on Apple+. Wikipedia tells me it’s just been a year and some change, so I guess that’s what a pandemic does to time. Or, given how quickly I just watched the third season, that’s probably what actually ended up happening.

Once the platform introduces its live component next year we will see the ceremony actually on Netflix, but this change was kind of cool!
Read moreLos Espookys – Season 2 Review
Well, based on how things have been going over at Warner Bros, I can’t say I’m that surprised that Los Espookys, this quirky little comedy, got cancelled back in December not long after airing its second season.
Read moreGhosts (BBC) Series 1-3 Review
You all already know how much I love the US version of Ghosts, so it made sense that I’d eventually watch the original British version that inspired it! I know there is a fourth season out as of last December, but HBO Max only has the first three seasons available, so this is what you’re getting for now (hopefully).
Read moreGeorge & Tammy – Miniseries Review
I might be as shocked as you are that I subjected myself to a miniseries detailing the careers of country music royalty, George Jones and Tammy Wynette. Truly, I despise country music, but I love Michael Shannon and Jessica Chastain, so I decided to give George & Tammy a fair shake before my Showtime subscription ran out.
