The Testaments: Season 1 (2026) 84% 7.5/10 EDIT “Even with its flaws, The Testaments remains an undeniably addictive and satisfyingly dense work of television that certainly does not provide an escape from current events, but may allow for new insights into how a democracy can descend into fascism.” – TV Guide Apr 2, 2026 Full Review The Comeback: Season 3 (2026) 97% EDIT “In many ways, 'The Comeback’ comes across as both a love letter to and a eulogy for the television comedy.” – RogerEbert.com Mar 19, 2026 Full Review Imperfect Women: Season 1 (2026) 43% 4.0/10 EDIT “Imperfect Women doesn't distinguish itself, in style or substance, from the many, many other streaming entries that attempt to appeal to the Agatha Christie/wine mom demographic.” – TV Guide Mar 13, 2026 Full Review Scarpetta: Season 1 (2026) 60% 6.0/10 EDIT “Cornwell was ahead of her time, but Hollywood was so slow to adapt her novels that Scarpetta now feels like something we've seen before.” – TV Guide Mar 10, 2026 Full Review Love Story: Season 1 (2026) 81% 5.0/10 EDIT “A series like this can't be considered a success unless it imparts some new information about or insight into who John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette really were. Love Story doesn't quite meet that bar.” – TV Guide Feb 12, 2026 Full Review A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: Season 1 (2026) 94% EDIT “Where “Thrones” went big to make its impact, “Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” just as effectively goes small.” – Washington Post Jan 20, 2026 Full Review The Pitt: Season 2 (2026) 99% 9.5/10 EDIT “Fortunately The Pitt isn't just a PSA dressed up in scripted TV show clothing. It's a living, pulsating television organism that's incredibly gripping, often laugh-out-loud funny... and blessed with a massive cast of top-to-bottom excellent actors.” – TV Guide Jan 12, 2026 Full Review Stranger Things: Season 5 (2025) 82% 9.0/10 EDIT “Stranger Things remains great at the most important and rare skill it possesses: the ability to appeal to audiences across the age spectrum.” – TV Guide Nov 27, 2025 Full Review The Beast in Me: Season 1 (2025) 85% 9.2/10 EDIT “The Beast in Me happens to be excellent: genuinely suspenseful, surprising enough to overcome any murder show tropes that occasionally creep into the narrative, and, obviously, well acted, not only by Rhys and Danes.” – TV Guide Nov 13, 2025 Full Review I Love LA: Season 1 (2025) 87% 9.0/10 EDIT “To present I Love LA as merely a Gen Z version of Girls is a reductive way of describing this deeply observant, uncompromising work of television. ” – TV Guide Oct 30, 2025 Full Review Boots: Season 1 (2025) 90% EDIT “The show demonstrates that individuals from all sorts of backgrounds potentially have a place in America’s military and, by extension, America itself.” – New York Times Oct 9, 2025 Full Review Long Story Short: Season 1 (2025) 100% 9.0/10 EDIT “Bob-Waksberg and his colleagues tell a story that is both epic and filled with carefully considered, revealing details about this family... To do it in a way that looks effortless even though it clearly was not makes this one of the best TV shows of 2025.” – TV Guide Aug 27, 2025 Full Review The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball: Season 1 (2025) 100% 8.5/10 EDIT “The gloriously anarchic Hulu series plunges its imaginatively motley crew of characters into often heightened situations that are dazzling in their freneticness.” – TV Guide Jul 28, 2025 Full Review Squid Game: Season 3 (2025) 78% EDIT “But as eye-popping and shocking as “Squid Game” can be, it ultimately never reaches any conclusions about humanity that weren’t depressingly obvious from the jump.” – Washington Post Jun 27, 2025 Full Review The Four Seasons: Season 1 (2025) 78% EDIT “It’s about wondering if there’s still something more in life that you’re missing, while learning to be grateful for the long, complicated relationships you already have.” – New York Magazine/Vulture May 1, 2025 Full Review The Handmaid's Tale: Season 6 (2025) 87% EDIT “The Handmaid’s Tale understands how hard it is to dismantle a totalitarian system once its foundations are firmly in place, which makes it an especially timely reflection of the frustration and anger rippling across the country right now...” – New York Magazine/Vulture Apr 9, 2025 Full Review Bad Monkey: Season 1 (2024) 92% EDIT “This smartly written, slightly pulpy story unfolds against the backdrop of three tropical settings — Key West, Miami, and Andros, a small island in the Bahamas — that place the viewer in a beachy, relaxing mind-set. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Aug 15, 2024 Full Review Conan O'Brien Must Go: Season 1 (2024) 94% EDIT “This is what O’Brien was born to do: gyrate on the floor in public, in his land of origin, in the hope that someone, somewhere on this planet filled with astounding grandeur, will laugh. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Apr 20, 2024 Full Review Girls5eva: Season 3 (2024) 100% EDIT “Reinvention has always been a recurring theme in Girls5Eva, and it’s particularly apt for this go-round of the riotously funny examination of middle-age rebirth and celebrity-culture inanity.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Mar 14, 2024 Full Review Curb Your Enthusiasm: Season 12 (2024) 94% EDIT “The show hasn’t exactly evolved, and neither has its protagonist.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Feb 6, 2024 Full Review Echo: Season 1 (2024) 70% EDIT “Echo resists pandering in its celebration of female, Indigenous, and disabled identities, keeping it all rooted in character moments that are organic and well earned.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Jan 11, 2024 Full Review Fargo: Season 5 (2023) 93% EDIT “This is what this season of Fargo does so well and so smartly: It takes archetypes and themes that are familiar from the film and previous seasons of the anthology, then does things with them that we don’t quite expect.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Nov 21, 2023 Full Review Lessons in Chemistry: Season 1 (2023) 83% EDIT “While entertaining and well-made, this series doesn’t offer any new insights into the gender dynamics that stifled so many women in the pre-Ms. magazine era...” – New York Magazine/Vulture Oct 13, 2023 Full Review Somebody Somewhere: Season 2 (2023) 100% EDIT “Somebody Somewhere’s interest in the relatable, mundane moments of human existence, and in characters who are flawed but ultimately trying their best to look out for one another, feels like a sigh of relief.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Apr 24, 2023 Full Review Mrs. Davis: Season 1 (2023) 92% EDIT “The rare show that feels inscrutable at first and eventually seduces you to such an intense degree that you would eagerly die on the nearest available hill defending it.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Apr 20, 2023 Full Review
