Movies TV Shows
Kaos: Season 1 (2024) 77% 4/5 EDIT “With its modern twists and a broad cast of colourful characters — led by an imperious Jeff Goldblum — KAOS is chaotically good fun.” – Empire Magazine Sep 5, 2024 Full Review Sex Education: Season 4 (2023) 88% EDIT “Our favorite characters go through trials and tribulations that feel unnecessary, leaving us with a show that barely resembles what it looked like when it started.” – AV Club Jul 9, 2024 Full Review Heartstopper: Season 2 (2023) 96% 4/5 EDIT “Expanding on what made it so great in its first run, Heartstopper season two is an impeccable depiction of adolescent joy and queer love.” – Empire Magazine Aug 7, 2023 Full Review The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel: Season 5, Episode 9 (2023) EDIT “Delivers with an ending that doesn't just make you smile; it makes sure to respect all the characters we've spent years getting to know — and love.” – Mashable May 26, 2023 Full Review The Great: Season 3 (2023) 100% B EDIT “Television’s raunchiest historical fiction show is back, and this time it’s a scandalous family affair for everyone involved.” – AwardsWatch May 5, 2023 Full Review His Dark Materials: Season 3 (2022) 90% B EDIT “This last batch of episodes is poetic, heavy with heart and soul, and provides a satisfying conclusion to a story that’s been (mostly) a joy to watch unfold.” – AV Club Dec 2, 2022 Full Review Young Royals: Season 2 (2022) 100% B- EDIT “Here’s hoping that, if the series gets picked up for a third season, the queer romances are put back in the spotlight and given opportunities to thrive.” – AV Club Nov 2, 2022 Full Review We Are Lady Parts: Season 1 (2021) 100% EDIT “A bonafide smash hit. Centered around five Muslim women from various MENA backgrounds, We Are Lady Parts gives us nuanced, complex depictions of Muslim women that we've never seen on American television before.” – AwardsWatch Dec 9, 2021 Full Review The Great: Season 2 (2021) 100% 4/5 EDIT “These are the best kinds of shows, the ones that blend genres to give you something that should be confusing but ultimately turns out surprisingly satisfying in the greatest of ways.” – AwardsWatch Nov 15, 2021 Full Review Sex Education: Season 3 (2021) 98% A EDIT “...quite possibly the best season of Sex Education so far.” – AwardsWatch Sep 8, 2021 Full Review Q-Force: Season 1 (2021) 33% 0/4 EDIT “A more captivating choice would have been to spend more time letting viewers get to know the show's groundbreaking crew of LGBTQ heroes, and less on landing half-baked jokes about their culture.” – San Francisco Chronicle Aug 30, 2021 Full Review
