TV Show Recommendation: Barry (2018-2023)
Barry is a dark comedy/criminal driven drama that starts strong and ends with a satisfying finale. There are four seasons with eight 30-minute episodes in each season. It is created by Alec Berg and Bill Hader. The dialogue, fight scenes, casting, reactions, and whacky characters. are the reason Barry will be known as one of

TV Series Recommendation: The Story of Late Night (2021)
If you want to learn the origin of late night, the evolution of late-night programming, and the current state of late-night programming, this documentary series covers all of the subjects and more. From Mary Kay Stearns and Steve Allen, Ernie Kovacs and Jack Parr, and bunch of hosts until Johnny Carson aired in October 1962

TV Miniseries Review: Fosse/Verdon (2019)
Fosse/Verdon is the creation by Thomas Kail and Steven Levenson and based on the biography Fosse by Sam Wasson. For someone that knows little about Bob Fosse except he was a master at directing and choreographing Broadway musicals and knowing less about Gwen Verdon who was Fosse’s lifelong wife, supporter, and at one point muse,

TV Show Recommendation: Countdown (2025)
Hands down this show deserves to be watched for several reasons but this show was cancelled after one season. Again, I’m still recommending it because the cast and characters was what kept my attention. Countdown is about a task force of different law enforcement agencies coming together for a common cause of capturing the people
-
TV Show Recommendation: The Waterfront (2025)
Netflix needs to apologize to viewers for Mindhunter cancelling after two seasons and now The Waterfront for cancelling after one season. I’m still recommending The Waterfront because I love Holt McCallany as an actor and this crime drama about the Buckley family has a good supporting cast with interesting characters. Harlan Buckley (Holt McCallany) is
-
TV Show Recommendation: Fire Country (2022-)
Fire Country is an hour-long drama show (with commercials) with three seasons and a fourth to start this October. The creators of this show are Tony Phelan, Joan Rater, and Max Thierot. It is produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and is rated TV-14. The show focuses on the Leone family where members are either a firefighter or police officer
-
TV Show Recommendation: Hollywood Demons (2025-)
Hollywood Demons is a documentary series about the pitfalls of making it big in Hollywood. We all know the downfall of Bill Cosby and once you pull the curtain back, ugly details of hidden behavior come out like claws on a tiger. There’s a big difference between celebrities having trouble adjusting to quick fame and
-
TV Show Review: Lioness (2023-)
I will start this review of Lioness stating these types of shows about government entanglement in undercover CIA operations tend to be a hit or miss among viewers. Everyone has their critique and while this show about CIA spies is decent enough, the only critique I have is how the creator, Taylor Sheridan, included certain
-
TV Show Recommendation: Supernatural (2005-2020)
I can’t believe I thought this show wasn’t worth watching when it first started. I kept watching and by the third episode in the first season, I was hooked. I apologize to the writers and creators back in 2006 when it didn’t catch my attention. Fast forward years later and besides the demons, angels, God,
-
TV Recommendation: Reacher Season 3 (2025)
Jack Reacher is back with more action, saving, plotting, and not giving too much thought about where he will live next or what he will do. Alan Ritchson as Jack Reacher delivers again in season three. This time there’s bigger opponents, higher stakes, and dilemmas that take on a more personal meaning. Maria Sten returns playing Frances
-
TV Recommendation: The Handmaid’s Tale Season 6 (2025)
I’m recommending watching all the seasons because the whole series of The Handmaid’s Tale is great from start to finish regarding the acting, story lines, and cliffhangers from season to season. The whole reason I got Hulu was to watch this series and now I’m watching it again. Season six was last season and the
-
TV Miniseries Recommendation: Six Schizophrenic Brothers (2024)
This documentary series about mental illness, schizophrenia, is a slow burn. It catches speed with each successive episode. Whether any mental illness is more genetic, environmental, or a combination differs on what person you ask. The origins hold some importance but little when it comes to finding solutions and ways to live with it as
-
Hulu TV Miniseries Recommendation: The Dropout (2022)
The Dropout is a miniseries about Elizabeth Holmes, the former CEO of Theranos, a once billion-dollar worth company now defunct as it was shut down after being discovered as fraudulent. This series chronicles the origins and rapid downfall of Elizabeth Holmes, a once promising Stanford student that dropped out in 2004, her sophomore year, as
