CriticsThe Dark; The Piano
“This six-part thriller makes its remote rural setting look as brutally cold and damp as it is murderous”
-
CriticsLittle House on the Prairie
“Stymied by the need to appeal to a family audience, this Little House is merely bland”
-
CriticsSuddenly Amish
“None of it rings true, none of it is insightful, even by accident, which actually takes some doing”
-
CriticsFaithless; Dover 24/7: Britain’s Busiest Port; Abandoned
“It’s all exquisitely done — very Swedish, very stylish”
-
-
CriticsKatie Price: Nothing To Hide; Silo
“As with similar – albeit glossier – documentaries about the Beckhams, it’s all part of the brand”
-
CriticsWorst Neighbor Ever; Human Vapor
“This is filler television, doing nothing more than reminding us that bad people exist and that they can cross our paths at any time”
-
-
CriticsAces of Tennis; Rolf Harris: Primetime Predator
“At times this series feels like an ATP corporate video but it cannot help being fascinating”
-
-
CriticsRik Mayall: Magnificent B’Stard; The Bear
“It did an excellent job — albeit for only two hours — of bringing him alive”
-
CriticsThe American Experiment; Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness
“It feels like the televisual equivalent of consuming a kale smoothie on a wellness retreat”
-
CriticsI Kissed a Girl; Light in the Hall: Still Waters
“It is a four-star series but – and I’m breaking the fourth wall here – it feels important enough for a five-star rating”
-
CriticsThe Bureau; House of the Dragon
“It’s one of those dramas with a sleek, business-class feel that you can sink into if you’re prepared to make the effort”
-
CriticsJon Snow: A Last Big Story
“If this is Snow’s swan song, it is as fine a one as he could wish”
-
CriticsSugar; Queen James
“There is surely no other actor alive better suited to grainy voice-overs delivered as he cruises around sun-bleached LA in a 1966 Corvette Stingray”
-
CriticsInvasion of the Parakeets; House of the Dragon
“It is nicely done. And none of it is about football. For which, as ever, many thanks”
