Netflix drama Attracts attention to its flashy elements: a Zeitgeisty focus on the manosphere, the tour de force (including the beginner Owen Cooper) and amazing singles. But it is the nuances – a temperature change during a controversial conversation, the waves of pain crash on moments of harshly won joy – which make it an indelible portrait of masculinity in crisis. – Angie Han
Broadcast as a quartet of three episodes leading to Snape OneDisney + Tony Gilroy’s upheaval of all things Star Wars is the most ambitious series of the year.

No matter what EMMY voters think, Zahn McClarnon gives one of the best lead turns you will see on television in the third season of the AMC series on the Leaphorn & Chee Mystery series by Tony Hillerman.

It is not that the Max medical drama does something radically new. The creator R. Scott Gemmill performs familiar elements at a level of competence which is simultaneously exciting and comforting.
