Summertide: Season 1 (2024) EDIT “It is sketched to a human scale, and you can feel the relationships stretch and repair in concert with one another.” – New York Times Aug 1, 2025 Full Review Critical: Between Life and Death: Season 1 (2025) 86% EDIT “All the action of the show is riveting, and all the health care providers are calm and competent.” – New York Times Jul 30, 2025 Full Review Too Much: Season 1 (2025) 80% EDIT “The story may be about the wild miracle of love, but its heart isn’t strong enough to pump blood through an entire series.” – New York Times Jul 10, 2025 Full Review Such Brave Girls: Season 2 (2025) 100% EDIT “To its huge credit, “Brave” tenaciously resists sweetness, and yet its fallen world and all of its ostensibly unlikable characters add up to something pretty easy to love.” – New York Times Jul 8, 2025 Full Review Art Detectives: Season 1 (2025) 89% EDIT “The fun here is in the episodic aspects, and “Art Detectives” has a good time in the worlds of, for example, wine fraud and Titanic collectibles. ” – New York Times Jul 2, 2025 Full Review Baby Farm: Season 1 EDIT “Baby Farm manages not to be a didactic, punishing slog. It is energetic, and even as its characters consider themselves utterly stuck, the story really moves.” – New York Times Jun 26, 2025 Full Review The Waterfront: Season 1 (2025) 68% EDIT “The Waterfront seems unlikely to be as seismic as some of Williamson’s best-loved work, but it does have more bite than many other streaming dramas set in beach towns with surprisingly high murder rates. ” – New York Times Jun 20, 2025 Full Review Taskmaster: Season 19 (2025) EDIT “Taskmaster” is breathtakingly novel: I’m amazed by its capacity to remain unpredictable to both its viewers and its participants.” – New York Times Jun 11, 2025 Full Review Mr Loverman: Season 1 (2025) 100% EDIT ““Loverman” is polished and literary, practically silky — sublime, even. ” – New York Times Jun 4, 2025 Full Review Malditos: Season 1 (2025) EDIT “The show wears its Shakespearean power-jockeying as comfortably as its track jackets. ” – New York Times May 30, 2025 Full Review Sirens: Season 1 (2025) 75% EDIT “The draw here is the goofy luminosity of it all and the commitment of the performances. ” – New York Times May 23, 2025 Full Review Pernille: Season 5 (2025) EDIT “It stays consistent the whole way through, steadfastly messy and openhearted, aware of the many ways love and pain coexist.” – New York Times May 21, 2025 Full Review Rotten Legacy: Season 1 (2025) 80% EDIT “It’s bright and pulpy, juicy and impatient. ” – New York Times May 21, 2025 Full Review Reformed: Season 1 (2025) EDIT “In addition to being charming, “Reformed” is interesting. Sitcom shenanigans nestle alongside philosophical musings. ” – New York Times May 9, 2025 Full Review The Class: Season 1 (2025) EDIT “a Covid story, a coming-of-age story and a stress test for how much you can watch someone procrastinate before your brain explodes. ” – New York Times May 7, 2025 Full Review The Narrow Road to the Deep North: Season 1 (2025) 100% EDIT “There’s a visceral quality to most scenes as the show teases out the pains and pleasures of the body along with its grander ideas about the mind, the heart, the world, war.” – New York Times May 7, 2025 Full Review The Four Seasons: Season 1 (2025) 78% EDIT “It’s a casual acquaintance — perfectly fine for an afternoon, but shallower and more disposable than the real deal. ” – New York Times May 1, 2025 Full Review Carême: Season 1 (2025) 95% EDIT “Freed from the shackles of accuracy, the show is instead able to indulge in being spry and fun, without the lugubriousness of bleak historical dramas or the self-seriousness of kitchen dramas. ” – New York Times Apr 30, 2025 Full Review North of North: Season 1 (2025) 100% EDIT “On the whole, this is a cozy sweetheart show with lots going for it.” – New York Times Apr 23, 2025 Full Review The Gardener: Season 1 (2025) 50% EDIT “It still has ample bloodshed and intrigue, but it is a lot more soda than scotch.” – New York Times Apr 23, 2025 Full Review Su Majestad: Season 1 (2025) EDIT ““Majesty” has the makings of a pop fairy tale or princess fantasy, but it is a lot saltier, more cynical and more fun than that. ” – New York Magazine/Vulture Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Lazarus: Season 1 (2025) 92% EDIT “This repetitive yet iterative framing feels like a ritual, and the show is filled with religious imagery and musings about the nature of divinity.” – New York Times Apr 7, 2025 Full Review Dying for Sex: Season 1 (2025) 98% EDIT “Williams nails the paradox at the center of the show: As Molly’s body grows weaker, her self-possession grows stronger. ” – New York Times Apr 4, 2025 Full Review Truelove: Season 1 (2024) 100% EDIT “At its highs, though, “Truelove” is a superb and knotty domestic drama.” – New York Times Apr 3, 2025 Full Review The Residence: Season 1 (2025) 84% EDIT “Aduba is superb, exuding rigid brilliance and appeal. ” – New York Times Mar 20, 2025 Full Review
