With silly twists and disjointed plots, Netflix and Harlan Coben’s “Fool Me Once” feels like at least three shows stuffed into one.
While “Black Cake” does have its lulls, when focused on the lead character’s children, outside of those two, you have one of the best Hulu releases, if not shows, of the year.
Netflix’s “Yu Yu Hakusho” may satisfy anime or manga fans, but for those new to Yusuke’s spirit adventures, the live adaptation will be a head-scratching mess.
“The Ms. Pat Show” stays the course as it explores more challenging themes and perceptions and seeks a balance between laughter and processing trauma.
Hulu’s “The Artful Dodger” is an unnecessary spin-off of “Oliver Twist,” but great characters and acting make it fun escapism.
Netflix’s “A Nearly Normal Family” is a nearly normal crime story these days.
As a casual Sci-Fi fan, “Scavengers Reign” is the type of show I’ve longed for as it doesn’t heavily rely on any of the usual tropes or graphics to hook you in. Instead, it is all about getting you invested in the world and the characters, as all shows should venture to do.
Prime Video’s “Everybody Loves Diamonds” should be a slick ride, but a heist story told in 8 episodes makes the ride stop-and-start.
Mike Flanagan’s “The Fall of the House of Usher” is an entertaining and ghoulish time, but fans of Edgar Allan Poe’s classics may roll their eyes.
Netflix’s “Burning Body” tells the spicy story of Rosa Peral, but fizzles out halfway through.
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
