Euphoria is a strange series – I know that’s an obvious thing to state now that it has reached Season 3, but as rumors swirl...

I will confess to not having enjoyed Rooster as much as I expected to. First impressions were good, of course, but its ideas and characters...

It probably says a lot about the state of contemporary society that two big shows on two major streaming platforms have delivered episodes in less than a week, each offering two different takes on the same scene. And that scene is a major character’s OnlyFans persona taking on outsized proportions and stomping Kaiju-style through a fake cityscape.

To say the show is called Rooster, it’s very much not about Rooster for depressingly large stretches. And given we’re right on the cusp of...

If you were to make a list of the happiest days of your life, for most people, getting married would be somewhere near the top....

Half Man is a cruel show when you think about it. Sure, it’s about cruelty, but that’s not really what I mean. Just think about...

How do you follow Baby Reindeer? This must have been the question knocking around Richard Gadd’s head when coming up with Half Man, since, at...

The key question that will likely define the short-term future of Euphoria is whether Sam Levinson is attempting to satirise the facile horniness of the American Dream, or if he truly believes that the most anyone can aspire to these days is sucking on a pacifier while dressed as an adult baby.

Well, the second shift at The Pitt has finally ended, and it’s time to release that giant lungful of bated breath we’ve all been holding. Truthfully, I...

The secret to most Bill Lawrence shows is that you want to spend time with their characters. You like them, as you would your own...

Euphoria has always been many things – salacious, provocative, stupid, lurid, occasionally brilliant, and so on, and so forth – but chief among them was...

I have a sneaking suspicion that people aren’t going to love the ending of DTF St. Louis. And I can see why, honestly. I’m about to...
