Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen: Season 1 (2026) 87% 3.5/4 EDIT “No matter what the time of day, it always feels as if we’re waking up from a nightmare in that foreboding, civil twilight just before dawn.” – RogerEbert.com Mar 26, 2026 Full Review Jo Nesbo's Detective Hole: Season 1 (2026) 92% EDIT “If it continues (there’s certainly a wealth of material to be mined from the novels), it could upgrade from good to great if it goes a bit leaner, a bit more focused.” – RogerEbert.com Mar 26, 2026 Full Review The Madison: Season 1 (2026) 61% EDIT “It’s rock-solid, gripping television with multi-generational appeal.” – RogerEbert.com Mar 13, 2026 Full Review Sunny Nights: Season 1 (2025) 100% EDIT “This dark, brutal, and devilishly funny crime caper [often] leaves us unsure of whether to cringe in horror or laugh. It’s usually a bit of both.” – RogerEbert.com Mar 11, 2026 Full Review American Classic: Season 1 (2026) 94% EDIT “This is curl-up-on-the-sofa comfort viewing at its finest, a "Forced Fresh Start" redemption arc story in the tradition of "Northern Exposure," "Hart of Dixie," "Schitt’s Creek," and "Ted Lasso."” – RogerEbert.com Feb 27, 2026 Full Review The Gray House: Season 1 (2026) 45% EDIT “It delivers in its core mission to pay tribute to the women and their allies who made invaluable contributions in the battle to save the United States from the traitors who waged war against our country.” – RogerEbert.com Feb 24, 2026 Full Review Vanished: Season 1 (2026) 41% 3/4 EDIT “It ends with the right amount of closure and spice.” – RogerEbert.com Jan 30, 2026 Full Review Steal: Season 1 (2026) 77% EDIT “Sophie Turner is outstanding, and Zara is an undeniably complex and empathetic character. 'Steal' leaves open the possibility of a Season 2. Give Zara a better adventure, and we’ll sign up.” – RogerEbert.com Jan 20, 2026 Full Review A Man on the Inside: Season 2 (2025) 93% EDIT “This is low-key, endearing, stress-free viewing at its best. The quiet humor is soothing, and the moments that have your eyes glistening are well-earned and artfully executed.” – RogerEbert.com Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Death by Lightning: Season 1 (2025) 90% 3.5/4 EDIT “‘Death by Lightning' remembers Garfield as a decent man who never wanted to be president but might have made for a good one had he been given the time.” – RogerEbert.com Nov 6, 2025 Full Review Down Cemetery Road: Season 1 (2025) 81% EDIT “If we’re willing to take a step back and just go with it and not get bogged down in the details, this is powerfully entertaining stuff, filled with satisfying twists and turns.” – RogerEbert.com Oct 29, 2025 Full Review Murdaugh: Death in the Family: Season 1 (2025) 69% 2.5/4 EDIT “It’s an occasionally engrossing but mid-level project that never really grabs hold of you. The performances are outstanding, but the production values are underwhelming.” – RogerEbert.com Oct 9, 2025 Full Review The Morning Show: Season 4 (2025) 72% EDIT “It’s only a matter of time before the whole thing comes crashing down in a heap of self-important nonsense.” – RogerEbert.com Sep 17, 2025 Full Review aka Charlie Sheen: Season 1 (2025) 75% 2.5/4 EDIT “Just watching the two-part Netflix documentary series ‘AKA Charlie Sheen' can feel draining.” – RogerEbert.com Sep 10, 2025 Full Review The Girlfriend: Season 1 (2025) 88% 3/4 EDIT “’The Girlfriend' is, at the end, escapist trash … but it’s glossy and richly satisfying trash, right up until the perfectly devilish epilogue.” – RogerEbert.com Sep 8, 2025 Full Review The Paper: Season 1 (2025) 85% EDIT “It's a smart, breezy, good-natured sitcom, and something of a love letter to the noblest aspects of the profession.” – RogerEbert.com Sep 3, 2025 Full Review The Terminal List: Dark Wolf: Season 1 (2025) 75% EDIT “The show consistently brings the action and the boom factor, big time.” – RogerEbert.com Aug 27, 2025 Full Review Platonic: Season 2 (2025) 100% EDIT “‘Platonic' is sweet and light and makes for perfect late summer viewing.” – RogerEbert.com Aug 4, 2025 Full Review Dexter: Resurrection: Season 1 (2025) 95% EDIT “This latest iteration is rooted firmly in the haunting and bleak foundation of the original series.” – RogerEbert.com Jul 10, 2025 Full Review The Bear: Season 4 (2025) 84% EDIT “While the 10-episode Season Four has no shortage of heavy baggage unpacking, the overall tone is relatively lighter this time around.” – RogerEbert.com Jun 26, 2025 Full Review Cold Case: The Tylenol Murders: Season 1 (2025) 71% EDIT “There are so many twists and turns, so many stunning coincidences, so many indelible images, so many moments of heartbreaking fate in this story.” – RogerEbert.com Jun 4, 2025 Full Review Stick: Season 1 (2025) 81% EDIT “It’s a solid and satisfying effort with the potential for a multi-season run.” – RogerEbert.com Jun 4, 2025 Full Review Long Bright River: Season 1 (2025) 72% 3.5/4 EDIT “Seyfried is nothing short of phenomenal as Mickey, who has the weight of the world on her shoulders and seems to want it that way, as if allowing herself to enjoy life would mean she’s lost focus on the only things that matter to her.” – Chicago Sun-Times Mar 12, 2025 Full Review Deli Boys: Season 1 (2025) 96% 2.5/4 EDIT “The cast is universally terrific, the writing is often crisp and witty — but the blood-spattered shtick grows a bit tiresome and repetitive, and we can never quite shake that feeling that even in a dark comedy, drug dealing just isn’t funny.” – Chicago Sun-Times Mar 5, 2025 Full Review Running Point: Season 1 (2025) 79% 3/4 EDIT ““Running Point” has its serious storylines, but nearly everything is handled with a sun-baked and relatively light touch, making this an easily digestible binge-series with multi-season potential.” – Chicago Sun-Times Feb 28, 2025 Full Review
