HOLD TIGHT - SEASON ONE
I can’t highly recommend Hold Tight, but it does offer a moderately entertaining diversion because of its Harlan Coben adapted story.
THE GIRL IN THE MIRROR (ALMA) - SEASON ONE
Had this show chosen to stick firmly to the supernatural mystery angle and let it play out in creepy ways for the characters, this really could have been riveting and memorable.
THE CATCH - SEASON ONE
Poor acting, terrible script.
EVERYTHING NOW - SEASON ONE
Everything Now explores so many big emotions and fraught relationships with depth and specificity. Even when it traffics in teen drama tropes, its original voice shines through.
ANGELA BLACK - SEASON ONE
Last week I watched the first episode and gave it two stars; called it a tawdry, garish thriller trading on female fear. So I watched the full season and concluded I was wrong. It is worse than that.
XO, KITTY - SEASON ONE
This series doesn't try to be more than it is: an American-made show with a K-drama vibe, sprinkled with a few lessons on growing up. Nobody asked for it, but it's here.
RAMY - SEASON ONE & TWO
I love this show, and even though it has won a Golden Globe, I do not understand why it is not a much, much bigger hit. Hilariously cringeworthy scenes aside, this is a fantastic show that it is easy to gallop through, as it takes a fresh and frank look at a group that historically hasn't been shown much on TV.
THE SISTER - SEASON ONE
The Sister feels like the old British horror series from the 1970s -- moody lighting, mysteriously misty laneways -- but the first-rate acting keeps things from getting too cheesy.
EUPHORIA - SEASON TWO
The series doubles down on its claim as the classiest and most artistic form of the lowbrow high school drama ever. You never know where you're gonna end up when you ride Euphoria's emotional rollercoaster, but at least you know that you won't be bored.
THE TEACHER - SEASON ONE
Most viewers will stick around until the final credits roll to learn how this whole sorry saga will be resolved. However, don't get confused - that doesn't constitute entertainment or a synonym for good.
