Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 10 (2025) 2/5 EDIT “As you may have heard, Venice is sinking. Incredibly, no one tries to make an extended metaphor out of this. Once again, Emily and Mindy’s vibe is brought down because they are on a double date.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 22, 2025 Full Review Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 9 (2025) 1/5 EDIT “Why is the back third of this season completely devoted to the dreams and ambitions of Marcello? We are not watching Marcello in Paris! This show is supposed to be about Emily.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 22, 2025 Full Review Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 8 (2025) 2/5 EDIT “Emily and Mindy are on a double date. It is my sacred duty as your recapper to report that these women are never more lame than when they are being held down by underwhelming men.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 22, 2025 Full Review Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 7 (2025) 2/5 EDIT “Once again, it’s time for a metaphor that will be (over) extended through the entire episode: The resurrection of Notre Dame.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 19, 2025 Full Review Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 6 (2025) 3/5 EDIT “I am all too familiar with the complexities and complications of timelines, but even that did not fully prepare me for the confusion of this half-hour of streaming content. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 19, 2025 Full Review Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 5 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “We are back in the titular city, and Emily’s French is improving enough to yell at rude(r) Americans convincingly.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 19, 2025 Full Review Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 4 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “It’s time to launch Muratori Paradiso. Emily’s plan to invite a handful of influencers to Solitano for an exclusive launch party is a good one. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 3 (2025) 3/5 EDIT “Time for Ballando Ballando Ballando, where an improbable miscommunication plays out exactly the way you think it will.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 2 (2025) 3/5 EDIT “I do like the idea of Mindy as a micro-celebrity. Also, it’s hilarious that immediately after begging the boys in Paris to keep her company, she jetted off to Rome, leaving Alfie alone.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Emily in Paris: Season 5, Episode 1 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “I wish this show were just about the adults, because every time we go to the kids’ table, it all falls apart, but these grown-ups know how to have fun. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Wednesday: Season 2, Episode 8 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “We are finally doing away with the pretense of Nevermore being a functioning school. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Sep 4, 2025 Full Review Wednesday: Season 2, Episode 7 (2025) 3/5 EDIT “Cute to see Thing rocking out, though. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Sep 4, 2025 Full Review Wednesday: Season 2, Episode 6 (2025) 3/5 EDIT “After this breakdown, the girls experience those beautiful revelations that can only occur when a haunted gravesite ritual goes awry and you accidentally swap skins with each other. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Sep 4, 2025 Full Review Wednesday: Season 2, Episode 5 (2025) 3/5 EDIT “Fair Wednesday has emerged with only the tiniest, delicate scratches on her otherwise unmarred face after her harrowing night at Willow Hill.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Sep 3, 2025 Full Review Wednesday: Season 2, Episode 4 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “I am enjoying the side of Wednesday that is not not a spoiled little rich girl; I would actually love to see how this could create interesting conflicts and dynamics between Wednesday and her fellow students. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Aug 8, 2025 Full Review Wednesday: Season 2, Episode 3 (2025) 3/5 EDIT “Though Morticia continues to warn Wednesday that Goody’s book will lead her down a treacherous path — and that she, Morticia, will not fail her daughter as her own mother failed Ophelia — Wednesday is unmoved.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Aug 8, 2025 Full Review Wednesday: Season 2, Episode 2 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “Wednesday was found in quite the compromising position, and the new sheriff is suspicious. I’m surprised that Wednesday, who is oh-so-savvy in many ways, doesn’t realize how dumb it is to talk to the cops without a lawyer. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Aug 8, 2025 Full Review Wednesday: Season 2, Episode 1 (2025) 3/5 EDIT “We are treated to a not especially moving rendition of the Nevermore alma mater. I just don’t think “Outcast” is hitting the way they want it to! ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Aug 6, 2025 Full Review Hacks: Season 4, Episode 9 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “I’m not a medical expert, but it’s pretty clear that Dance Mom needs medical attention. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture May 23, 2025 Full Review Hacks: Season 4, Episode 8 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “Mayor Jo — my hero, my heart, America’s mayor, as far as I’m concerned — kills. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture May 19, 2025 Full Review Hacks: Season 4, Episode 7 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “It’s a big episode for mother figures. Not only do we have Dance Mom, mother to her art, we have DJ, new mother to AJ, and Ava, whom DJ asks to be AJ’s godmother.” – New York Magazine/Vulture May 19, 2025 Full Review Hacks: Season 4, Episode 6 (2025) 5/5 EDIT “We get an episode packed with what Hacks does best: emotional devastation laced with jokes and a big, earned, vulnerable scene with Deborah and Ava. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture May 9, 2025 Full Review Hacks: Season 4, Episode 5 (2025) 2/5 EDIT “We end up spending most of our time picking the lowest-hanging fruit on the modern comedy tree.” – New York Magazine/Vulture May 2, 2025 Full Review You: Season 5, Episode 10 (2025) 3/5 EDIT “Delusional ‘til the last. In the end, You looks at the timeless “I can fix him” misconception and definitively says, “No, you really can’t.”” – New York Magazine/Vulture Apr 28, 2025 Full Review Hacks: Season 4, Episode 4 (2025) 4/5 EDIT “The crowd is so warm and, for once, Deborah seemed genuinely humbled.” – New York Magazine/Vulture Apr 25, 2025 Full Review
