THE HUB

It’s been over seventy years since William Golding first decided to traumatize middle schoolers with the realization that, without a math teacher in sight, children will inevitably turn into spear-wielding cultists. We’ve had movies before, some black-and-white and haunting, others very 90s and very American but the new Netflix Lord of the Flies limited series, a co-production with the BBC, finally brings the island into the era of prestige streaming. If you were worried this

The final episode opens with a Sherlock Holmes lookalike being evaluated in the UHOP ER, muttering about the Jabberwock. At the same time in Baltimore, Mary brings John Watson to see Dr. Isaac Niles at Washington-Jefferson Memorial Hospital. What was supposed to be a consultation quickly turns serious when Niles insists John be admitted immediately. He explains that Watson has an aggressive glioblastoma that will lead to pain, memory loss, seizures, and ultimately death. Alth

The latest adaptation of Man on Fire has officially touched down on the streaming giant known as Netflix and while the smoke is still clearing, one thing is certain: John Creasy has a brand-new face and he’s not here to play nice. Taking the torch from Denzel Washington is no small feat, it’s a cinematic suicide mission. Yet, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II doesn't just pick up the mantle; he welds it to his skin. This seven-episode reimagining of A.J. Quinnell’s novel swaps the smog o

Netflix has a habit of dropping high-octane survival thrillers on a Friday night and hoping for the best, but their latest release, Apex, is doing something a bit different. On the surface, the premise is as old as the hills: a deranged serial killer stalks an unsuspecting victim through a remote wilderness, and it’s up to a resilient woman to turn the tables. We’ve seen it in The Most Dangerous Game, Hush, and a dozen other "final girl" tropes. However, Apex manages to claw

After sweeping the awards circuit and finally securing that Best Actor trophy for the gritty, soul-crushing intensity of Sinners, Michael B. Jordan has decided to celebrate his Oscar win by… turning into a tiny, furry woodland creature. It’s a bold move, but in the newly released Netflix animated adventure Swapped, it’s one that actually sticks the landing. Produced by Skydance Animation and directed by Tangled alum Nathan Greno, Swapped arrived on our screens this week with

Boston Blue Season 1, Episode 17, titled "L'dor Vador," took the Hebrew phrase for "from generation to generation" and turned it into a masterfully messy roadmap of family secrets, near-death experiences, and the kind of "nepo baby" discourse that usually stays on TikTok. The emotional center of the episode revolved around a hospital stay that was supposed to be about Grandpa’s heart surgery but ended up being a cardiac event for Lena’s entire world. Before going under the kn

If you thought the Edgewater sheriff’s department had its hands full with standard small-town drama, Sheriff Country Season 1, Episode 17, “The Hunting Party,” just proved that things can always get messier. Between a botched assassination attempt, a high-stakes heist, and a romantic timing so bad it’s practically a talent, this episode left us breathless. We’re breaking down the betrayals, the break-ins, and why Mickey Fox might want to rethink her texting habits. A Target o

The episode starts out on a pretty normal, almost domesticated level. Kim is talking about Mack and the new school, and there’s this ongoing tension about selling the house. Even in those small family moments, he feels distracted, like his attention is already somewhere else. With all that is going on with his father it’s understandable. Selling the house and watching his father’s memory slip away day by day is very distracting to Adam. Kim says lately he always seems like he

Sienna sits in her therapist’s office, venting about the problems she’s having with employees, her assistant, and someone she met in Hawaii the previous week. She hesitates when discussing that encounter, revealing she had been on her yacht with her boyfriend when a stewardess repeatedly addressed her by her first name while calling him “Mr. Styles.” The slight infuriated her. Her therapist expresses sympathy, noting how hard Sienna works to enjoy her time off, and suggests s

Just when you think Sam and Jay have finally cleared the legal hurdles to keep their sanity and their historic B&B, the universe (and the writers) lob another curveball. In the latest installment of Ghosts, titled "Under New Management," the dream of a quiet life at Woodstone Manor is once again set on fire, mostly because a disgraced politician has nothing better to do with his time than ruin Jay’s culinary aspirations. The Breastaurant Blunder The episode centers on the ret

After what felt like a lifetime on hiatus, 9-1-1: Nashville is finally back, and Season 1, Episode 17, titled "Saboteurs," reminds us that in Music City, the emergency isn't always a 10-car pileup, sometimes it’s just a country star with a grudge and a microphone. The Blue and Taylor Honeymoon is Over (Sort Of) Let’s be honest: we are all here for Taylor and Blue. But as "Saboteurs" opens, the rose-colored glasses are starting to fog up. The honeymoon phase hasn't just ended;

Apparently, we are celebrating America’s birthday in April now. Patriotism doesn't follow a calendar on reality TV, and this week’s Next Level Chef proved that nothing says "freedom" like high-stakes anxiety and an appetizer tray. Season 5, Episode 13, titled "A Toast to America's 250th," tasked our final six chefs with honoring the American spirit through the medium of small bites. Because if there is one thing this country loves more than liberty, it’s finger food. The Powe

After weeks of side-eyeing every man in this series and let’s be honest, most of the women too, the Imperfect Women season finale finally delivered the closure we were gasping for. Titled "The Bridge," the episode stopped playing coy and finally answered the question that’s been haunting our group chats: Who actually killed Nancy? If you had "the seemingly stable husband with a terrifying control streak" on your bingo card, congratulations, you’ve watched television before. T

The emotional fallout from Amanda Wagner’s death takes center stage in Will Trent Season 4, Episode 17, “Where’d You Come From, Little Angel,” as Will is forced to confront both his grief and a complex murder case that pushes him to the brink. The episode opens with a flashback to 2005. A young Wilbur Trent runs through the streets with stolen food hidden under his jacket while a farmer chases after him. He collides with someone crossing the street, hits the ground, scrambles

Last night’s episode of The Rookie was the best “I’m sorry we did that” to make up for the documentary episode - I’m convinced. I usually can’t stand the storyline whiplash, but this time around it flowed seamlessly. From a visit by a familiar face to a death we didn’t see coming, this episode was one of the best all season. The Glasser Case Continues Before we get into this case, I’d like to just ask one thing: why is Bailey always tagging along police investigations? John

If you bet your life savings that R.J. Decker would end its freshman run with a tidy bow and a group hug, I hope you kept the receipt. The Season 1 finale, "Even Walls Fall Down," just wrapped on ABC, and it delivered exactly what we’ve come to expect from this show: high-stakes photography, questionable legal ethics, and a body count that makes South Beach look like a retirement community. For ten episodes, we’ve watched R.J. (Scott Speedman) try to prove that his prison sti

Jules’ New Reality Jules (Hunter Schafer) is shown immersed in painting as we learn how she becomes a sugar baby. Her roommate Vivian (Cailyn Rice) encourages her to go on dates while attending art school. Jules gives it a try, initially seeing multiple men before eventually settling into an arrangement with a plastic surgeon, who becomes her primary partner. During one of their conversations, he asks when she transitioned, and she shares that it was at 14. Soon after, Jules

Parenthood, medical emergencies, and a ticking clock because apparently one crisis per episode is beneath this show now. Lauren and Adam finally arrive at the hospital, ready to meet their triplets after what feels like an eternity of waiting. Their OB-GYN, Dr. Tabitha Malena, walks them through the cesarean procedure, reassuring them everything will go smoothly. They’re nervous, understandably, but cautiously optimistic. Watson backs up Dr. Malena’s credibility before gettin

If you thought your Monday morning commute was a disaster, wait until you see what the staff at Boston Memorial had to deal with last week. In the latest installment of Boston Blue, titled "Anatomy of a Bomb," the writers decided that a standard cop drama wasn't enough. No, they needed 60 kilograms of dynamite and a father with a very justifiable grudge to really spice up the hospital cafeteria menu. A Clerical Error with Explosive Consequences The episode kicks off with the

We’ve finally made it to the Season 2 Finale of Matlock and wow, this was an amazing Season Finale that sets up Season 3 really well. We pick up with Matty settling into the idea that she is going to have to let go of her Matty Matlock persona and go back to being Madeline Kingston. It’s clear that this is something that she is wrestling with because although she wants this to be over to feel a sense of justice for Ellie’s death, she also doesn’t want to lose Olympia, or her
