“One Night Stay” is a thriller that doesn’t know how to end, so it delivers something quick and shoddy.

In “Good Grief,” the universality of loneliness is explored, whether single due to death, a break-up, rejection, or just never getting to be “The One.”
“Night Swim” may scratch that itch for horror fans who need a jump scare, but it certainly won’t start off the year on a high note for Blumhouse like “M3GAN” did.
While “The Book of Clarence” may seem potentially controversial because it contains Jesus of Nazareth, outside of some of the conversations it could start, it is tame to the point of being boring.
With over 400 episodes of limited series, anime, and multiple-season shows, these are the notable shows we feel are worth checking out (assuming you haven’t already).
