Hijack – Limited Series [2023] on AppleTV+
Hijack is a glossy AppleTV+ thriller that achieves genuine but slow liftoff, while simultaneously getting a lot of things wrong.
Mrs America – Limited Series [2023] on Hulu/Disney+
Mrs America is the perfect show in these uncertain times that explain to the new generation, me included, why the United States is screwed.
Waco: The Aftermath – Limited Series [2023] on Paramount+/Showtime
Waco: The Aftermath picks up a couple of months after the original series. Better, sharper, and even more honest than its predecessor.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Season Two [2023] on Paramount+/Crave
Strange New Worlds proves that there’s still room for legacy and modernized Star Trek and its storytelling.
White House Plumbers – Limited Series [2023] on HBO/Max/Crave Canada
Watching White House Plumbers was fun as hell, but my head hurts from all the facepalms I did every time Hunt & Liddy did something stupid.
The Bear – Season Two [2023] on FX/Hulu/Disney+
Season Two of The Bear takes it up a notch by focusing on its character development while maintaining the anxiety levels.
Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan – Season Four [2023] on Prime Video
The final season of Jack Ryan will leave you questioning yourself for spending over six hours watching this trainwreck.
Marvel Studios’ Secret Invasion – Limited Series [2023] on Disney+
Secret Invasion starts okay, but it’s definitely not the comics version, or anything close to what the fans would ever want, myself included.
High Desert – Season One [2023] on AppleTV+
High Desert on AppleTV+ starring Patricia Arquette will leave you asking yourself, in a good way: What did I just watch?
Ghosts of Beirut [2023] on Showtime/Paramount+
Showtime’s Ghosts of Beirut can be broken into two parts: Two great and informative episodes. And two sci-fi episodes that felt taken from 24.
Waco – Limited Series [2018] on Paramount+
Waco, the series, will offend some people. However, its facts-based approach is what makes it special and worth it.
American Born Chinese – Season One [2023] on Disney+
American Born Chinese is both confusing and interesting. A lot of practical effects mixed with that I’m going to assume a lot of mythology.
Rabbit Hole – Season One [2023] on Paramount+
Rabbit Hole has a LOT of potential. Even though season one felt a little underbaked, fans of 24 will enjoy the return of Kiefer Sutherland.
