Butterfly isn’t just another espionage drama—it’s a tense, fast-paced spy thriller with a surprising emotional core. Daniel Dae Kim stars in a tense father–daughter spy story. From brutal action sequences to shocking twists, here’s our full review of Season 1.

Wednesday (Season 2 Review) | Darker Twists, Standout Performances, and Gothic Fun

Wednesday Season 2 dives deeper into the Addams family’s twisted charm, bringing more heart, weirdness, and mystery than ever before. From a wild stalker to Tim Burton’s eerie visuals, there’s so much to sink your black-painted nails into. Curious how it all stacks up so far? Read the mid-season review.

The Terminal List: Dark Wolf (Premiere Review) | This Prequel Delivers Tension but Lacks Clarity

Video ~ 27 August 20251 September 2025 ~ Garc ~ Leave a comment

The Terminal List: Dark Wolf kicks off with a tense, action-driven premiere, but three episodes in I’m still asking: is this Ben Edwards’ villain origin story, or a redemption arc to justify what comes later? Either way, the suspense has me hooked.

The Rainmaker (2025) Pilot Review | Breezy Legal Drama with Surprising Turns

Video ~ 17 August 202522 August 2025 ~ Garc ~ Leave a comment

The Rainmaker pilot might not reinvent the legal drama wheel, but it’s fun, twisty, and carries that easy, breezy energy of old-school TV courtroom shows. With a scrappy underdog team and John Slattery chewing scenery, this adaptation could be your next binge-worthy guilty pleasure.

Black Bird (Miniseries Review) | A Chilling Character Study That Didn’t Quite Hook Me

15 August 202529 June 2025 ~ Garc ~ Leave a comment

Black Bird delivers powerhouse performances and chilling tension, but I wasn’t as hooked as I expected. Here’s why this slow-burn thriller with standout acting didn’t fully pull me in, though it’s still very much worth watching.

Harlan Coben’s Shelter (Season Review) | Mystery, Drama, Teen Thriller

7 August 20256 August 2025 ~ Garc ~ Leave a comment

Harlan Coben’s Shelter kicked off with creepy twists, high-stakes teen drama, and a protagonist who seriously needed to chill. It’s messy, fun, and weirdly addictive. Come for the mystery, stay for Spoon.

Wednesday (Mid-season 2 Review) | All in the Family

6 August 202512 August 2025 ~ Garc ~ Leave a comment

Wednesday Season 2 dives deeper into the Addams family’s twisted charm, bringing more heart, weirdness, and mystery than ever before. From a wild stalker to Tim Burton’s eerie visuals, there’s so much to sink your black-painted nails into. Curious how it all stacks up so far? Read the mid-season review.

Ballard (Season Review) | Cold Cases, Conspiracies, and Compelling Leads

21 July 20252 September 2025 ~ Garc ~ Leave a comment

Maggie Q stars as LAPD Detective Renée Ballard in Ballard, a gripping new police procedural from Michael Connelly’s universe. With compelling cold-case mysteries, layered character drama, and a strong ensemble cast, Season 1 proves this spin-off has real staying power.

The Flatshare Season Review | Warmth, Chemistry & Emotional Healing

17 July 20251 July 2025 ~ Garc ~ Leave a comment

The Flatshare surprised me in the best way, what starts as a quirky roommate arrangement quickly becomes a heartfelt story of healing, connection, and maybe even love. It’s funny, warm, and unexpectedly grounded. This one’s for fans of slow-burn romance and genuinely flawed characters. Come for the Post-its, stay for the feelings.

Agent Hamilton (Season 2 Review) | Grounded Spy Work in a Nice Procedural Format

11 July 202516 June 2025 ~ Garc ~ Leave a comment

Agent Hamilton Season 2 trades global conspiracy for case-by-case intel work, and it works. With tight pacing, grounded missions, and Jakob Oftebro’s subtle intensity, this Scandi spy series hits a confident new stride.
