Scams: Season 1 (2019) 2.5/5 EDIT “There are things about Scams that work well enough, but ultimately, it is easier to endorse its perspective than its artistry.” – The Daily Dot Nov 21, 2019 Full Review The World According to Jeff Goldblum: Season 1 (2019) 83% 2/5 EDIT “The World According to Jeff Goldblum feels like infotainment from a bygone era.” – The Daily Dot Nov 15, 2019 Full Review Nowhere Man: Season 1 (2019) 73% 3/5 EDIT “On a technical level, Nowhere Man is a breath of fresh air. On a creative level, it's little more than a boilerplate crime drama.” – The Daily Dot Nov 1, 2019 Full Review The House of Flowers: Season 1 (2018) 83% 3/5 EDIT “La Casa de Las Flores bills itself as a telenovela with a modern twist, and it mostly follows through on that promise.” – The Daily Dot Oct 23, 2019 Full Review Bard of Blood: Season 1 (2019) 36% 2.5/5 EDIT “If names and nationalities were changed, Bard of Blood would feel like any CIA thriller released in America in the last 20 years.” – The Daily Dot Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Inside Bill's Brain: Decoding Bill Gates: Season 1 (2019) 43% 1/5 EDIT “The goal of Inside Bill's Brain is not to entertain the audience, but to justify Gates' wealth and the way he spends it.” – The Daily Dot Sep 19, 2019 Full Review Elite: Season 2 (2019) 92% 3/5 EDIT “Overall, Elite season 2 offers more of what has made the show a success and wisely doesn't try to change a solid formula.” – The Daily Dot Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Million Pound Menu: Season 2 (2019) 3/5 EDIT “While the BBC import is fine, we certainly don't have the next Great British Bake Off on our hands.” – The Daily Dot Aug 29, 2019 Full Review 45 RPM: Season 1 (2019) 2.5/5 EDIT “With familiar beats delivered by trope-laden characters, the hour-long drama will do little more than remind you of better material.” – The Daily Dot Aug 20, 2019 Full Review The Naked Director: Season 1 (2019) 3.5/5 EDIT “The Naked Director tries to strike a balance between raucous sex comedy and action-packed underworld narrative in this tale of a pornographic revolution.” – The Daily Dot Aug 7, 2019 Full Review The Boys: Season 1 (2019) 85% 4/5 EDIT “Early episodes may not do everything right, but more often than not, the show sucker-punches the superhero genre with a wink and a smile.” – The Daily Dot Jul 26, 2019 Full Review Taco Chronicles: Season 1 (2019) 100% 5/5 EDIT “With its dazzling photography, expert culinary explorations, and sheer passion, Taco Chronicles joins an elite class of food shows revolutionizing the genre.” – The Daily Dot Jul 17, 2019 Full Review Family Reunion: Season 1 (2019) 67% 2/5 EDIT “Family Reunion frequently mentions hot-button issues and toes the line of saying something interesting, only to settle for safer punchlines.” – The Daily Dot Jul 9, 2019 Full Review The Last Czars: Season 1 (2019) 56% 2/5 EDIT “The Last Czars isn't it.” – The Daily Dot Jul 8, 2019 Full Review The Weekly: Season 1 (2019) 38% 3.5/5 EDIT “The Weekly is slickly produced and takes pains to walk the viewer through the shoe-leather reporting process with clever visuals and innovative editing.” – The Daily Dot Jun 3, 2019 Full Review Street Food Around the World: Season 1 (2012) 100% 5/5 EDIT “Yes, Street Food offers the exotic locales and delicious cuisine, but this series adds a sharp sociopolitical sensibility that makes for one of the most compelling food shows ever made.” – The Daily Dot Apr 26, 2019 Full Review Bonding: Season 1 (2019) 73% 2.5/5 EDIT “Bonding feels underwritten, under-planned, and ultimately underwhelming.” – The Daily Dot Apr 25, 2019 Full Review Ramy: Season 1 (2019) 98% 3.5/5 EDIT “Ramy is at its best when the Muslim experience and the millennial experience intersect.” – The Daily Dot Apr 19, 2019 Full Review Huge in France: Season 1 (2019) 57% 2/5 EDIT “Just because something sounds like a TV show doesn't mean it should be one.” – The Daily Dot Apr 16, 2019 Full Review 4/5 EDIT “Just as American procedurals shows us the highs and lows of cities like New York and Los Angeles, Tijuana shoots its title city with refreshing respect.” – The Daily Dot Apr 8, 2019 Full Review After Life: Season 1 (2019) 74% 3.5/5 EDIT “As is often the case in Gervais' work, kindness ultimately prevails in this story of an embittered man in a world that has taken so much from him.” – The Daily Dot Mar 9, 2019 Full Review Patriot Act With Hasan Minhaj: Season 1 (2018) 100% 4/5 EDIT “At a moment when everyone seems to be talking, Hasan Minhaj has a voice actually worth listening to.” – The Daily Dot Oct 29, 2018 Full Review Pod Save America: Season 1 (2018) 1/5 EDIT “Cringeworthy jokes and awkward cadences aside, Pod Save America doesn't just fail as a TV show; it doesn't work well as political analysis either.” – The Daily Dot Oct 17, 2018 Full Review Friday Night Lights: Season 2 (2007) 92% EDIT “Much of the season was spent illustrating to us why Coach Taylor needs the Panthers and they need him, which is all well and good, but does little more than make us hunger for his return to the Dillon sideline.” – Complex Sep 26, 2018 Full Review Dallas: Season 9 (1985) EDIT “At the end of season 9 of Dallas, the writing staff made one of the strangest, most ill-advised choices in TV history.” – Complex Sep 26, 2018 Full Review
