If you’re looking for a reason to cancel your weekend plans and rot on the couch with a glass of wine, Acorn TV just handed it to you on a silver platter. Their latest original series, You’re Killing Me, managed to land on my screen for an early look and I’m happy to report it’s the exact kind of fun murder mystery we’ve been craving.

The Neighborhood Series Finale Says Goodbye to Dave Johnson (and Finally Gets Emotional About It)
After eight seasons of power tools, uninvited backyard visits and enough culture-clash tropes to fill a textbook, CBS has officially closed the book on the Butlers and the Johnsons. The series finale, "Welcome to Goodbye," didn't just wrap up loose ends; it tied them into a double-knotted bow of weddings and moving boxes. For a show that started with a skeptical Calvin Butler wondering why a white family would ever move to Pasadena, it ended with the most predictable, yet odd

Amie MacKenzie Talks The Madison, Better Call Saul, Career Reinvention and Why Getting Older in Hollywood Is Finally Getting Interesting
There’s a certain kind of actor who quietly shows up in everything good. You recognize the face immediately, even if you can’t place where you first saw them. Actress Amie MacKenzie fits squarely into that category and after speaking with her, it becomes painfully obvious why directors keep calling.

Amazon Renews Reacher for Season 5 Before Season 4 Even Shows Its Face

This early renewal is a
