Deli Boys
Deli Boys is an instant favourite that is a close to perfect comedy with a bit of everything and a great cast that have exceptional comedy chemistry. The violence and comedy work together perfectly and used to elevate each other in some perfectly funny moments that so many sitcoms fail to do. It’s a great watch that easily brings you into the chaos with every character providing moments of humour thanks to the excellent cast and writing. Its original yet have moments of familiarity to ground the series in its more outrageous moments. Abdullah Saeed has created a great series that everyone will love. There are a few cameo appearances that, although brief, bring different styles of comedy and personality that make the show bigger and better.
Paradise
Paradise tries to capture the cost of one’s choices, as well as the age-old question of what it good for humanity, but as it tries to juggle a lot of plots and some flashbacks that feel unnecessary, it struggles to find its identity. There are times when the show shines for its emotional performances, but these characters are lost in the bigger picture of Xavier Collins and his own goals.
High Potential
High Potential offers viewers an enjoyable crime drama that doesn’t focus on the bleakness of the crimes that Morgan and Karadec solve. Instead, it showcases how Morgan is an integral part of the team. High Potential proves to be a clever, witty show that has a perfect ensemble. The new crime a week has been a common formula for most detective-based shows, but High Potential really does bring a fresh take to it with Kaitlin Olsen bringing the right amount of chaotic, carefree energy.
Under The Bridge: Review
Hulu’s Under the Bridge is a strong series with commentary on teenage mentality with layered characters matched with complex portrayals from the younger cast that captivate and propel the story forward. There are times when it can be frustrating but in ways that work with the narrative to create a compelling story of a brutal tragedy.
We Were the Lucky Ones: Review
At its heart, this is a story about a family with exceptional luck and resourcefulness who will fight for survival in any way they can. The cast of characters gives varied accounts of what happened during this time and, showcased in their varied ways, gives a detailed, emotional journey that provides deep characterisation with one of the most horrific acts as the background.
