The Orville – Season 1
Intriguing, this one – I had a look at the first one of these ages ago because of the concept (space/scifi comedy, helmed by Seth McFarlane), and found the whole thing a bit desperate....

Rick and Morty – Season 5
Dammit, this show just keeps getting better & better – and Season 5 genuinely gave the idea that Roiland & Harmon genuinely don’t care, and are putting in EXACTLY what they want to. More...
The Handmaid’s Tale – Season 4
Torture Porn epic The Handmaid’s Tale continues – with this season feeling a bit more focused and balancing more towards storyline rather than seeming like a university psychology experiment. There were still plenty of...
The Nevers

Humans – Season 1 & 2
Intriguing drama about a present-day world where synthetic humans are engaged as domestic/industrial servants, until some of them develop consciousness. The characters have depth and dimension, and the synth acting is eerily good. And...
Rick and Morty
Originally I had the feeling that Rick & Morty was something that had passed me by, and then I watched an episode or 2 and thought nothing of it – so it was only...
